He's currently listed as the 28th pick going to the Lakers. Number 2 pick is Ball going to the Lakers. OG Anunoby is listed at 15 going to the Heat and Bryant going 39th.

Surprised that Anunoby is that high with a bum leg.

And if Caleb is going to play with Ball, he better get a lot quicker.

He can start the break with a defensive rebound, outlet to Lonzo, then trail for that pull up 3 he likes.

Plus, he's a man, unlike the boys the Lakers currently have filling up that roster.

As long as Biggie isn't ever seen in Big Baller Brand swag

That would be great as long as I don't see Caleb wearing any Big Baller Brand swag...don't think I could handle that!

What's amazing is 12 of the first 14 are Freshman. And the first Senior is Peter's out of Valpo at 32nd.

And two of the other POY candidates, Hart and Mason are 40 something and 50 something.

Proving once again that there is no draft position to be gained by returning to school if you are projected as a late first rounder.

To me this is why the NBA is watered down. Lots of young players who are based on their potential. Most never fulfill it.
 
i mean.. has anyone watched this evans kid play? The kid is phenominal... legit almost a chris paul clone

I would take him over a lot of the kids, if not most of the kids besides tho top 6 or 7 easily
 
I hope he makes it but NBA is such a "different" form of basketball I don't know. I'd never watch it but I'm all for Purdue players getting paid.
 
For something he and we are not in control, we should only talk about positive things until he gets into NBA.

Sumner from X just announced today that he's entering the draft & he tore his ACL after OG

A simple ACL tear, assuming it's the first one, not considered a big deal by NBA execs. Nerlens Noel got drafted top 10 with one a couple years back.

Now if JBJ were an NBA prospect, which he isn't, his injury history would get a lot more scrutiny.
 
Biggie doesn't have the quickness or the athleticism to compete in the NBA...yet. I would not bet against him improving to get to where he needs to be to have a solid career. He is special in that aspect.
