Is there any chance we could see Chandler coming back for another year?

Him and Edwards on the same floor together would be exciting to see.

Don’t think so, biggest knock on him is size and that ain’t changing. Also he’s been really hot shooting threes, if that stays the case he would want to take advantage of that and not risk coming back and having that percentage drop

Weren't they bigger point guards? They seem more of the bully type

Kyle showed up to Nova at 170 then gained the weight needed.

Kyle's scouting report,

A short, but exceptionally athletic point guard who creates all kinds of problems with his excellent speed and quickness. Extremely quick to take the corner off the dribble. Capable of playing above the rim, which is quite an accomplishment for a player his height. Very good at drawing defenders with his driving ability. Can cause all sorts of problems for his matchup by using his physical tools defensively. - Source: DraftExpress - Kyle Lowry DraftExpress Profile: Stats, Comparisons, and Outlook ©DraftExpress

Sounds like KC.

Both definitely have 15-20lbs on Chandler, which is a lot at that height…not many guys fit Chandler mold which is why you see such a discrepancy imo. Lowry went 24th & Nelson 20th fwiw.

Tremont Waters is a good comparison.

Almost went undrafted, measured 5’10”…Chandler better hope he’s 6’ at a minimum.

Let’s not forget that at 18-years-old a guy can still add 1-2 inches. It’s not unusual. 1-2 inches and 15-20 pounds can make a huge difference.

Absolutely, but NBA GM’s aren’t drafting with that assumption.

No, but the jumps usually occur during the freshman calendar year.

If Chandler grows 2” in the next 4 months then he will make a bunch of money…would hope that’s not what he’s banking on though.

Agreed.

How about both of you guys donate and just say GBO. Everyone wins.

Or you know...just give it to me...I'll handle it.....

Kennedy Chandler comes in #20 in the latest NBA Draft rankings. What an absolute joke.

If he was 6”4 he would be top 10

KC is listed at 6’ by Tennessee

Gonna argue over an inch? Who are you, my ex girlfriend?

Better chance of me landing Addison Rae’s phone number tbh.

Considering the NBA nitpicks over .25” on hand size yea, it matters.

That’s why you should marry a good church going girl. If you tell her 5” is huge then she’ll believe you since she’s got nothing to compare with!

I remember Sharife Cooper had his height accidentally listed at 6’3” when he was just under 6’0” and people had him mocked in the top 10 bc of that. Ended up going 48th or something

Ok, sure.

While there could be more to the story, ambushing a guy in the postgame handshake line is pretty pathetic
