Duke had 3 guys drafted in the top 10. That win in the final four is still incredible to watch

Fell in the Draft
Kasparas Jakucionis (Illinois)
Jase Richardson (Michigan St)
Richardson measurements, hurt him. 6’0.5" barefoot. I remember post NCAA tournament, the talk was potential lottery
Liam Mcneeley (UCONN) - not off the board yet either
(4) picks left in the 1st Round
McNeeley & Danny Wolfe still left on the boardđź‘€
McNeeley shot only 32% from 3pt last season. And worries are that he cant guard
Players we went up against this year:
#1 Cooper Flagg
#3 VJ Edgecombe
#4 Kon Knueppel
#8 Egor Demin
#10 Khaman Maluach
#14 Carter Bryant
#18 Walter Clayton Jr.

Carter Bryant should’ve gotten more usage. He was a mismatchup problem
Averaged 19 minutes per game. Only 6.5ppg
Shot 37% from 3pt.
6’8", i think Tommy Lloyd didn’t get enough from Bryant

He’s definitely got an NBA frame. I think he would’ve had a big year 2 for Arizona. Could be a really good fit for the Spurs.
Ya know what’s ironic?
The B1G had the most players taken in the first round of any conference, yet couldn’t put a single team in the Final Four.
Illinois had two first round picks, and UH zero.
But of course, UH was way better.
Coaching, experience, and culture definitely matter.

my buddy who doesn’t follow college basketball commented the same about the Rutgers guys who got drafted. he asked “how do they have (2) guys getting drafted in the top 5? was Rutgers even good?”
college basketball can be tricky for the casual fan.

Yah kind of an uncharacteristic amount of NBA talent in that league this year. Ofc Rutgers was responsible for the two highest picks from the B10 and they couldn’t even make the NCAAT so like you say didn’t translate into the high level success you might think.

How bad was the rest of the Rutgers team?
We saw them play in Vegas and they were basically a two man show…no culture at all…
