@playboyswervo There is a big difference. You failed to factor in basketball feel and IQ. Cam Thomas though a skilled offensive player doesnt have both. Acuff makes the game look easy not only for him but also for other players. The defensive playmaking sure looks rough but it can be hidden.

Finally his first good take. If Cam Thomas keeps getting waived, what makes you think Darius Acuff gonna be successful. They the same player, 1’s just lightskin

@NevaMiss24 I would be very wary of Darryn Peterson. No doubt he's the better fit due to his size and two way capability but as we learned from the AD and KP experience, the best fit would be someone who is available all the time.

Batman’s Almost Here@NevaMiss24·21h

Darius Acuff Jr is the best player John Calipari has ever coached. He’s the safest bet. We need offense and playmaking and he excels at that. Why would you worry about his defense when he’s going to be surrounded by Coop, PJ, Lively, and Gafford?

Mavs Lead@MavsLead

BE HONEST: If BOTH are available, who are you taking? Darius Acuff or Darryn Peterson?

@XPJHX1 They could have gotten 2 FRPs for Max and Naji during TDL but that window has closed.

@chipwilliamsjr He's modern day Dennis Rodman. If not for the injury concerns, he would be top 6 for me.

Jayden Quaintance vs. St. John's 10 points (5/7 FG | 0/1 FT) 8 rebounds 2 blocks 17 minutes played I will have a lot more thoughts on JQ leading up to the draft, but as long as the medicals aren't a significant long-term concern, he will be be comfortably top 10 in '26 for me.

@KeithSmithNBA Teams will nitpick about his size and lack of athleticism. Plus the mere fact that there is great depth in the PG pool will mean he could be drafted in the 40s and 50s or even undrafted at all.

English

Keith Smith@KeithSmithNBA·4d

Someone should draft Braden Smith in the 20s of the NBA Draft and have a rotation guard for the next decade. He's going to get drafted later than he should and people are going to say "Man...wish we had drafted him." for years.

Brayden Burries draft stock has been skyrocketing. Imagine if he ended up having a +4 or +5 wingspan? I can’t find anything on the internet about his wingspan. Does anyone know?

I created a chart to show how the top freshman guards stack up offensively against each other. Here are their shooting percentages for different shot types:

@LegionHoops @adam_talkshow @TheNBABase All because saving cap space for Dwight Howard. Quite idiotic when you can make the money work elsewhere as long as Dwight committed.

Mark Cuban says his biggest “miss” as an owner was passing on Giannis Antetokounmpo in the 2013 draft, per @adam_talkshow. Cuban ended up overruling his fellow executives who loved Giannis, and traded the pick for Lucas Nogueira and cap space. (h/t @TheNBABase)

@onballcreator Quaintance would be at the top of this list if health was not an issue. In this list i would have Yaxel at the top followed by Hannes, Aday, Haugh, Morez, Swain, Krivas

English

On Ball Creator@onballcreator·10 Mar

In no particular order: Morez Johnson Aday Mara Yaxel Lendeborg Sergio De Larrea Patrick Ngongba Thomas Haugh Jayden Quaintance Hannes Steinbach Cameron Carr Dame Sarr Motiejus Krivas Dailyn Swain Isaiah Evans I know, not a very selective list. But as a Celtics fan, I wouldn't mind seeing 1 (or more) of them get drafted by us this June

@deadboylyfee I would be very concerned with getting OG. You need topflight medical staff to get him healthy all season. Not to mention that the price for getting him out of NY would be very high.

But just remember things can change fast in this league. With the right moves from Ricardi/Finley this summer, and assuming Coop keeps getting better they can get back on track. Glass half full

@XPJHX1 he impressed alright but there are a lot of players with the same archetype in the draft, maybe even better. so it wouldnt hurt to evaluate them first.

@McdonaldLa83347 @XPJHX1 @Maverick_SZN BWill is a SG masquerading as PG. Acuff is a playmaker. He probably is the best lob passer in the draft. BWill is the better finisher but Acuff is better in all other areas. If the Mavs though manage tongrab a top 5 pick, i dont think they'll pick Acuff. Past 5 i think they will

@TheChartClimber @Fullcourtpass Not necessarily. JB could end up getting traded to Milwaukee for Giannis. Far fetched? Yes because of his agent's and father's ties to the Knicks. But possible.

English

Philip the Chart Climber@TheChartClimber·5 Mar

@Fullcourtpass That eliminates Knicks because of Jalen Brunson. Ask Karl Anthony Towns. I've said this for years; Brunson is scoring PG not a floor general. Brunson is a star but overrated. The reason why I didn't want Brunson with Julius Randle & RJ Barrett which they ultimately got traded.

Giannis Antetokounmpo prefers playing for an East Coast team since it is closer to Greece and doesn’t want to play with a ball-dominant lead guard, per @EricPincus (bleacherreport.com/articles/25402…)

@KevinGraySports Kevin, they dont need players as good as PJ, Lively or Gafford. They just need to acquire players of the same archetype. Luka can elevate any player's game and put them in position to succeed. Am i confident that the Lakers can do that? Not really as long as pelinka is in charge

Kevin Gray Jr.@KevinGraySports·4 Mar

The Mavericks had Derrick Jones, Jr. a terrific POA defender, P.J. Washington a Swiss Army knife do it all, combo 3/4 forward who could guard positions 3-5 & Dereck Lively II or Daniel Gafford starting who were rim-running, lob threat shot blocking bigs around Luka & Kyrie…

NBACentral@TheDunkCentral

The Lakers believe they can succeed with a backcourt of Luka Dončić and Austin Reaves and are looking to build a Dallas 2.0–type roster, similar to what Luka had when he went to the Finals, per @SIChrisMannix (Via @RunItBackFDTV )

Bol Bol getting a reported $120k/mo from Tnt is nothing compared to what CBA and B. League teams pay its high profile imports. If the PBA wants to secure legit NBA guys, that's what it'll take. Not only is Tnt the favorite to win the Comm's Cup, Bol's marketing value is immense.
