It may still be too early to predict this but does anyone else think that Jarace might be back for another season? He could benefit from it, highly. Good at a lot of things but not great at anything. He needs one more year.

I agree, very raw, tries to make moves to basket and puts up wild shots at basket, great talent but not nba ready

NBA takes guys in top 10 every year not NBA ready. They draft on ceiling not where they are coming into draft

If he is a lottery pick, I don’t expect him to pass that up. But, anything else in the first round and I think he should consider coming back for another year?

Is there enough Gallery… I mean NIL money to keep him ?

Nope. Just look at how bad Whitehead & Lively have looked for Dook. No way nether is staying a second year no matter how much NIL money is there because they’ll get drafted regardless because of what they did in HS. Just don’t get injured.

Prime examples Watson & Baldwin last season.

I would think it would depend on his discussion with CKS and what he advises him. Imo

Idk i could see a player thinking he could develop more under Sampson if there is enough money to go along with it

Thatll be the upset of the year. Minor miracle lol.

Draft stock is falling for sure. But if wiseman can get drafted anything is possible

Will see how the rest of the season goes but everything I’m seeing has him hovering in late lottery territory (8-12 ish). You can’t turn that down. Sasser should get drafted probably second round. When is the last time we had 2 players drafted in the same draft?

He needs to be a lot more aggressive. He’s got the NBA body, but he needs to show the NBA physicality. There’s no need for him to become a three point specialist. Get inside and body these guys. Get in front on fast breaks. Get those easy buckets. I wish we utilized him more in pick and rolls.

He’s obviously going pro after this season

I don’t see him dominating the glass at 6’8” 240. I thought he was going to come in and be a monster. Sampson can turn him into that. Right now he’s a finesse guy, who’s not hitting his shots. I get the NBA drafts on potential, but right now, is he even showing that? I don’t expect him to turn down lottery money but I’m not sure he’s that right now. Like I said, he needs another year.

Coach Sampson will give him an honest assessment. Right now he is not ready but if he turns it around and starts balling then he will go.

He’s shown flashes but he s not a lottery pick right now. Then again, I’m not a draft “expert”. Ha

Do you have the lottery picks for this year’s draft figured out? Because the experts do
