🚨🚨NEW AT @NoCeilingsNBA 🚨🚨 Christian Anderson is a star in plain sight at Texas Tech. I profiled his game, compared him against his 2026 guard peers and current NBA Star guards pre-draft, and why I’m so high on him as an NBA lead guard. open.substack.com/pub/noceilings…

Well, update after tonight: Victor Wembanyama: 4-15 FG, 0-5 3P OKC BENCH: 8-14 3P (If you include McCain who usually comes off bench, 11-22) Same two things, OKC’s hot shooting wins the battle tonight. Can Wemby respond in Game 6?
Nathan Grubel@DraftDeeper

This Thunder-Spurs series has really been a tale of two things: - Victor Wembanyama having dominant performances (and when he doesn’t or is off the floor) - OKC’s bench being nuclear hot from 3P Tonight, Wemby’s been incredible and OKC is dead cold from 3. So the question is, which one will win out over two of the next 3 games? Which is more likely? I’d say at this point, I’d be more willing to bet Wemby has more awesome outings than trusting the Thunder bench to keep putting up monster shooting nights. Dylan Harper and Stephon Castle have regained their defensive footing tonight, and they’ve even gotten some good minutes on that end from Barnes and Kornet. Spurs might just be good enough defensively with Victor to win this series.

Like him as a prospect for sure, massive riser up the board last month. For the BULLS, if guard IS the swing at 15, I want someone I trust much more to shoot alongside Josh Giddey. Christian Anderson has an argument for best shooter in the draft, Philon massively improved 3P shooter in all facets.

Somewhere between All-Star and Quality Starter. As it was when the Philadelphia 76ers traded him. Can’t ever convince me to deal a lottery-level talent in their first few seasons unless it’s for an absolute difference maker.

What is Jared McCain’s ceiling?

@MattGeorgeSAC Kings are in zero position to play it any sort of safe. Honestly, I think Darius Acuff is a pretty sure bet as an offensive guard. He’s the most complete guard on offense in the class. This league is driven by offense as much as it is defense. Get the dynamic lead guard.

It's wild how valuable Jaylin Williams has been for the Thunder this series.

It’s going to be fascinating to see what OKC does with Isaiah Hartenstein’s team option this offseason. I understand not wanting a crazy expensive roster with already 3 max players, but IHart is so good and important to this team’s identity on both ends of the floor.

One underrated aspect of OKC’s roster is that everyone can get to where they want to go. There are no “plodders” on the court, and even guys who aren’t the fleetest of foot like Lug Dort and Jared McCain can lower their shoulder to create an angle.

@J_Talks_Hoops @Betsycashmoney @DraftDeeper That’s fair but I think it’s telling that everyone has him exactly at 4. Lots of different opinions on the order of the top 3, but no one has Wilson above any of them.

Bulls fans and/or Draft Nerds: Whom should the Bulls draft at #4 & #15? (Or if you think there's a player worth trading up for at #1-3, I'm open to that too)

@Betsycashmoney @J_Talks_Hoops @Heffomite I want to be clear. If there was an opportunity for the Bulls to get Boozer without mortgaging the entire future, it would be awesome. That’s a move to 3. It’s not worth Chicago to go balls to the wall and go up to 1. Caleb Wilson is NOT that far below as a prospect.

Absolutely love this article. And to a similar degree, I also try and make sure anything that I publish/produce is authentic. My evaluations, opinions, and analysis are my own. I’d like to think that’s why I’ve made so many awesome connections in basketball over the years!

@Betsycashmoney I personally would just stick with 4 and draft whichever of the group falls to be entirely honest. I think all 4 have a real chance to be game changers for a franchise.

@DraftDeeper Yes, I'm assuming (based on what I've read?) that Darryn/AJ/Boozer/Caleb will be the top 4 (in some order, idk which) I think the Bulls badly need a franchise player, someone to get fans excited about... So I'd be open to taking a big swing if it made sense to trade up.

By other 3, are you talking at the top trading up from 4? If the draft plays out as currently projected, you could try and swing up to 3 for Boozer. He is the player that’s been at the top of my board. I think he’d be an excellent fit alongside Giddey as another extraordinary passer. Has the power to lift the offensive floors of everyone around him.

Christian Anderson has been one of “my guys” this entire cycle. His grade on my board has fluctuated a bit, but put him with a team that has a plan for him to continue growing, and I promise he can become a bright star in the NBA. My favorite PG prospect in the draft.
Jeff Borzello@jeffborzello

NEWS: Texas Tech’s Christian Anderson, a third-team All-American last season, is keeping his name in the NBA draft, his agent Aaron Mintz of CAA Basketball told ESPN. Recent feedback from the Combine & pre-draft workouts reaffirmed Anderson’s status as a projected top 15-20 pick.

@behindthearc_ I think teams with two firsts are definitely in play and need depth at PF (OKC, CHA), but also a San Antonio that has Wembanyama as a true rim presence. Even a team like Detroit in need of a PF that projects to also shoot from the outside.
