They only play about 5 games a year that are competitive.

Kofi up to #30 in latest draft, fluid of course....now that his name actually hit however, probably gone for sure. If that happens, absolutely no possible way we get a shot at Liddell. There seems to be some truth possibly to him and his family wanting him to move over to us?

I would be very surprised if any NBA teams are telling Kofi he is first round pick.

I found an NBA draft scouting report on report on Adam Miller. Compares him to Wesley Mathews. Says he is "A big (6-4) guard with a strong frame who can make plays on or off the ball"

Probably not a bad comparision really.

Well, he is not 6'4". Has average frame and is pretty average athlete.
Cannot create his own shot or finish in traffic at all yet. No pullup. No floater.
Average handle at best. Has no idea how to attack closeouts. No breakdown and pass ability.
Average to below average defender with lack of height and length and average quickness.Did improve that somewhat.
Has not shown he can shoot the three off the dribble at all.
He was actually barely average from three as a spot up guy taking only wide open threes.
I can see him averaging 12-14 ppg if he gets a lot of shots at LSU (and would have done that here), but his game is simply pretty limited.
He has a lot of work to do to be in NBA conversation. Good luck to him, but he just needs to show some game.

Yeah- seeing Ayo in late first round discussions.
Not seeing Kofi. Maybe someone will signal they will take a flyer on him in second or as FA.

Too short/ small to be junior, not in seniors league. I am thinking a Dean Oliver upside, if he works hard.

Pretty sure he’s being told he won’t be drafted period. Odds of him coming back are increasing slowly

Well, if he can improve his passing, improve footwork,  improve guarding in space and at elbow, and show any kind of face up game he can get a chance.
Question is doing that here, in G league or Europe.

If he comes back,  I think we can be better than this year.

If he comes back I definitely think we can be better than last year.

And he definitely isn’t getting drafted. 1st or 2nd round. I could see him playing overseas, but no NBA and really no G-League. The game has passed players like him by. If it was 20 years ago he’d be a #1 pick n the draft.
Because FOX News told me so…
