Re: Lou King officially declares for NBA Draft
Yeah pretty much what everybody expected. Still was able to get through the season academically eligible and make a significant contribution. More than Troy Brown Jr did honestly. Getting a forward who can shoot is now huge.

I think he should have come back cause I’m not sure he goes in the first round. Best of luck To him though. He came on strong late in the year.

Re: Lou King officially declares for NBA Draft
It was fun to watch him. His shot got really hot late in the year. Bummer we didn't even get a full year of Bol or King and they're gone. Ha!

Bummer, but he was a big part of our run and he played like a boss against ASU with that ankle , unlike Troy Brown who folded like a tent and stopped caring in Vegas.
Wish him nothing but the best and the he could be a really solid 3 and D guy in the NBA in 2-3 years.
We will need outside scoring for next season badly.

That’s a big loss. 6-9 shooters are hard to find. Losing him and Paul White will be tough to replace. I fully expect him to shoot up the mocks as we get closer to the draft.

I do think Norris has the potential to fill in for one of them.Boom wrote:That’s a big loss. 6-9 shooters are hard to find. Losing him and Paul White will be tough to replace. I fully expect him to shoot up the mocks as we get closer to the draft.

Re: Lou King officially declares for NBA Draft
Unlike Bol, I don't think this is the right move for King, but regardless, I hope he finds success and reps the Ducks well in the NBA. I'd find it hilarious if Bol and King somehow end up on the same team together in the NBA as Rookies, it'd only be right after Bol's injury robbed them of playing with each other.
After this, my new projected starting lineup for Oregon next year is:
PG: Anthony
SG: Pritchard
SF: Norris
PF: Wooten
C: Okoro
I hope Norris realizes his potential as a SF at the next level and works super hard this offseason on his shooting, ball handling, and court vision.
