Oh shit the draft is tomorrow?

I’m excited for the draft, which really snuck up on me. I’ve been too busy trying to fix my shitty fantasy teams. But that’s like tomorrow… crazy. Maybe we Trade Dipo. Maybe we trade Myles. Maybe we trade neither. The only thing that is certain is that we are picking with the 54th draft pick this year and that’s it. I love a good long shot. I don’t bet on a horse at the derby unless it 50/1 odds. The odds for a successful 54th pick are even worse, so I’m giddy with excitement for this one. Look there’s nothing to lose here. I mean what’s so hard about drafting just draft good players. I’ve actually done a little research on this one for ya. I’ve talked with acclaimed Draft Expert Sam The Sizz Fischette I ran my following top choices if available. All three received the The Sterling Sizz Seal of Approval.

(also these video links aren’t made by me just sharing as a reference )

  • Nate Hinton - 6-5 guard out of Houston. If you know me you know I love heart and Hustle basketball. Its that “ I fucking hate losing” kind of basketball. And Nate Hinton has it by the bunches. Skilled player that flies all over the court. Only Averages 10.6 points in his sophomore season at Houston while only shooting 36% from 3 could be big issues for him. He Plays with swagger tho so fuck a statistic. Could very easily be the hidden gem of the draft, as he’s projecting to go late second round to undrafted. Nate Hinton Hype vid

  • Jordan Nwora - 6-7 Forward from Louisville. Total hooper. His junoir year he averaged 18 points per game with 7.7 rebounds as a kicker. Plays with size. Patient flow to his game, very cold calculated scorer. One of his biggest problems are that he isnt the most athletic of players and looks soft at times. This is a stretch for the pacers, I’ve seen his projects all over the second round. Draft Profile for Jordan Nwora

  • Myles Powell - 6'-2 seton hall guard. I think this kid is something special. He played all 4 years of College ball. Played 30 minutes a game from sophomore year and on. And let me tell yah he got buckets, god damn. Below average 3 point shooter by the numbers but this kid has a great look to his shot. He shoots with a certain fearlessness that you’d much rather have on your side than against you. He doesn’t necessarily fit in the current pacers roster, but i’d bet that this kid will make himself fit on the team. He’s a total gamer. He’ll be looked over for his hieght because 6-2 seems a little generous. Myles Powell Highlights

  • Jack “Jhaq” Christ - 5-9 Power Forward. High Motor player with surprising hops and a more surprising wingspan. Rebounding magnet. Fast Break Phenom. He shoots 19% from standing 3 pointers, but shoots at least 80% from in-transition 3s. Limited Film and an inability to make a left handed lay up will probably keep Jack out of the first round, but the second round seems like a lock. Hope he falls to 54th, talks from his agent says he will hold out if the signing bonus is less than Lamelo’s . Jhaq's Thursday Night Hoop Highlights

Also I’d be remised not to mention the massive ground swell of hype for Sam Merill at 54th. Impressive highlights I’ve seen all over twitter. The dude is legit. The Hype Is Real!
