Going to miss most of it, and I'll be honest, I have not spent the same amount of time I usually do on the draft. But here's the thread for the NBA Draft tomorrow. Here's my top 10 big board.

1. Zion Williamson
2. Ja Morant
3. Coby White
4. R.J. Barrett
5. Jarrett Culver
6. Darius Garland
7. Bol Bol
8. Nassir Little
9. Cam Reddish
10. Deandre Hunter

He's got all-time defensive stats, but why did he not go to the combine? It's a weird red flag. If he can't shoot, he's Andre Roberson at best. If he becomes a good shooter, he'll be a hell of a steal.

Some people have speculated the Sixers made him a promise and he shut it down.

Thybulle
Hunter
Gafford

Also the reports are that Charles Matthews has been shutting down everyone he goes against in work outs and that reminds me a lot of Josh Richardson.

Too bad he tore his ACL. I'd be shocked if he gets drafted.

I meant to add Carsen Edwards too. Don’t care about size in today’s NBA. He might not ever carry a contender but that guy is a killer and will be good for a long time.

I'm increasingly wary of Garland. I believe he was the 5th best guard in his HS recruiting class and now some people are talking about him going 4th overall after 5 college games? It's kind of crazy. It's easy to fall in love with him, but we've got almost nothing to go off. I'm rethinking my grading of him.

Scoring guards are the rage but even in his minuscule time you can tell he can play. Part of it too? Weak draft

Some guys I think that are going to be drafted too high/be bad/never reach their ceilings:
Coby White
Jaxson Hayes
Sekou
Bol Bol

I like Coby White a lot. Hayes' had very modest rebounding numbers, which is concerning. Bol Bol seems like injuries will doom him. No idea on Sekou

I’m going to try to call where the Vols are picked tonight. Trades will screw this up but whatever:
Grant - 25 to the Trailblazers
Schofield - 43 to the Wolves
Bone - 51 to the Celtics
