It's possible that he will be plagued by injuries like Lonzo. After all they are more alike than not and Lonzo's really struggling with something or another. They are surely talented players and Lonzo is a brilliant passer but you cannot count on him to be healthy.
 
Even if NBL is not even remotely close to Euroleague level back to back triple doubles against non-Chinese pros is super impressive.

The NBL is not as good as the EuroLeague, but it’s better than any domestic European league.

I believe it could be with the exception of Spanish ACB, Turkish BSL and VTB. The top 4 teams there are on higher level. Adding Eurocup there as well.

I just saw Brad Newley still playing and has a big role in the 1st team in the Standings, i now changed my mind about it being better than any European League :breakdance:

LaMelo Ball may or may not have bought his old team, the Illawarra Hawks.

His manager says that he has, the league says that the deal is not yet complete.

Andrew Bogut already part owns the Sydney Kings. Zach Randolph, Al Harrington, and Josh Childress already part own the South East Melbourne Phoenix.
 
Please tell me one of the teams are called The Dingos!
 
What a nightmare for the team that drafts him. Old man Ball will be their back seat driver barking and trumping fake news.
 
There are two very solid picks in that top 10 that i would go with but it's hard to argue against a 7+ footer in Wiseman.
The other two are Jaden McDaniels and Deni Avdija.

Reports on Ball are good but he is not gonna bring much defense.

Been saying it for a long time. You got to take the best pick available. Picking for position never seems to work out well.

scouts seem to have concerns about mcdaniels especially concerning the 6 technical fouls and 8 disqualifications in the shortened season. red flags about body language/attitude. turnovers on nearly one in five possessions. needs the right team/culture/coaching.
 
"maligned at times for his work ethic and lack of focus" Why would anybody consider drafting a guy like that at #1?
 
I would because of the old man

He want to be in la or new York or boston

Wiseman reminds me of Deandre Ayton......no thanks
 
Still very early, but looks good out there.
 
This kid doesn’t even start.....
