Now if he suddenly becomes 7 feet we know that the good Lord is smiling on our basketball program. |

| What year will Stokes enter the draft, iyo?
15 and 10 ain't chicken feed. At 6-8, 225, Tristan Thompson was drafted 4th last year averaging 13 and 8. Markieff Morris was 6-9, 245, averaged 14 and 8 and was drafted 13th. Marcus Morris, same size drafted 14th at 17 ppg, 7 rpg; Kahwi Leonard, drafted 15th with 15 and 10; Quote:

He's projected late first round right now, and I don't think he'd leave for that. | | |

Those guys got those numbers with better skill sets than Jarnell has right now. That's why they were drafted high. | |

| The difference between 6'8 and 6'9 is not going to keep him from being top 5. That 1 inch isn't going to do anything, its the wingspan that matters at that height. Anyone know Stokes wingspan compared to others who are similar in size who went high in draft? | |

Although, I'm sure BTO does haha | |

I didn't think he'd measure that either. Looks like he's almost the same build as sullinger to the T.
Same height, weight is very close, wingspan the same. | |
