NBA Draft 2027

#27      
SBNation has Quentin going #3
This draft is crazy thin. I'm trading out if I can.

My theory is that older guys are going to go higher, the Yaxel effect. The last thing I want to do is take some low ceiling 19 year old freshman that I'm going to have to pay 20mm before they're in any place to contribute. After watching Arkansas, I didn't see a kid on their roster that doesn't look 3 years from being a real NBA player.

I can see guys like Hough, Ngongba rising. Money Ball.

You can feel the way the work Ayo (and TSJ, and KJ and Riley to some extent) has done is breaking down barriers and has blazed a path for Wagler and now Coleman to get this kind of treatment in the draft process. We get more and more credible as an NBA factory every year.

Holt vs Coleman - Holt is a physically imposing track athlete, winner of the underwear olympics type. Q is a functional all around hooper, also with a high motor. Can you teach Holt to shoot? I don't think it's that easy. Look at the Thompson Twins, Steph Castle. Shooting is a fine motor feel thing. If you're a 6'5" guard, you better be able to do it in the NBA.
