Alperen Sengun is the one that will most likely win the rookie of the year. That kid has a chance to be the next Pau Gasol or possibly better.

The Rockets simply destroyed everyone else this draft. If they make the finals in the next 5-7 years it will be because of this draft.

How good is he!..
He genuinely could be something pretty special.

His footwork is sublime, A+ defensive instincts and the guy can shoot and pass.

I'm very impressed.

I picked Sengun to be the steal of the draft. He's going to be very good. 15 pts, 15 reb, 3 assts, 4 blocks, and a steal the other day. 21 pts, 8 reb, 4 blocks tonight. He's got great footwork and been playing with grown men. MVP of the Turkish league. Already got a smooth inside game. HOU knocked it out of the park with their first 2 picks.

I think I've already seen enough out of Green to know that he should be a pretty damn good shot creator in the league.

The question is going to be how much of the rest of his game develops and if he becomes an all around player or just a guy who can get buckets.

Either way... Cade, Green, Mobley... I think this is going to be a solid class.

This draft class still doesn't move me. I'm not seeing any 'he's got next' type of dudes.

Then again, I suck as a talent scout. So who knows.

I don't like Mobley at all. He's the guy with the highest bust potential, imo.

His instincts and help on defense particularly stood out.

You could be right... he needs to do two things...

develop some sort of shot, add some size.

I think the size happens as time goes on. The shot will be what makes or breaks him.

He projects to be a star defensively. The other thing I like about him is he's teamed up with a point guard who will be able to specialize in the pick n roll.

What he does have is elite size and and athleticism. 7 feet tall with a 7-5 wing span, and near 40 inch vertical. He moves great for a guy his size.

He's the biggest boom/bust prospect of the 3.

he needs to ....add some size.


7'0 and 215 lbs is why I don't like Mobley. K.Durant is 6'10 and 240 lbs, he looks like a toothpick. And D.Ayton is 6'10 and 250 lbs. Mobley is like an extra slim toothpick, he needs to bulk up a lot. He isn't a good passer, in his last game with 28 minutes he didn't get any Assists. Too many obstacles for Mobley, but if he can bulk up and grow taller, be determined, he could be the next Giannis. I don't want to be the guy who said Mobley sucks :D

The thing about Sengun is he makes the game look easy. He's physical, see the court well, has nice handles for a big, can pass at a high level, good shooter, and most importantly he has a high IQ. He's a possible 20/10/5 guy within 2 years.

Mobley seems soft to me. I think his ceiling is Brook Lopez.

Gratified to see that the thread turned into one about Sengun. He deserves it.

As a Rockets fan i am so freaking pumped. Green and Sengun look amazing so far

I am going to spend way too much on cards over the next year lol

Anyone who missed the first game of the day, this performance (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PpHB9mE_e8A). To me, more immediate potential.
