Dante(probable)
Bittle
Lawson(unlikely to transfer given his brother coming up here.
Bittle should be able to play the 4 for us with his game he'll be a great fit there in our system. If you haven't seen him, there's lots of recent Youtube of him playing down in Phoenix in the "bubble."

Re: Next year's big men
Dante has fallen off every mock draft board I have seen. He is probably going to need to show that he can stay healthy for more than just a couple games. I think he sticks around for another year, although he could go with the G league option too.

Re: Next year's big men
Payton Pritchard's 4 years at Oregon should let any draft prospect understand that you're much better off going into the NBA with your game developed because the NBA is most certainly not a developmental league. The G League is just rat ball because Adam Silver can't figure out how to run it in a more productive manner.northbeachsf wrote:Dante has fallen off every mock draft board I have seen.

Re: Next year's big men
Wow can't believe Dante's window of opportunity for the NBA is already closing. I thought that he has to go this year because if he gets injured again next season, that could possibly end his bball career. By leaving this year, he would at least get his foot in the door somewhere. At least that's what I thought but it looks like you all are saying it's the G-league?northbeachsf wrote:Dante has fallen off every mock draft board I have seen.

Re: Next year's big men
I have not seen his name on a single mock draft since he got hurt again. He is listed in the second round in some 2022 versions that I have seen. He almost has to stay, right?ducks5ever wrote:Wow can't believe Dante's window of opportunity for the NBA is already closing.

If he can stay healthy, he will make it on a roster. However, that looks to be a big "if" at this point.
