Stokes is a 6'7" SF unless they plan on using him as a point forward which based on his Assist to Turnover ratio probably wouldnt be the best choice but who knows.
Maybe with us missing on so many players, Altman may change the plan for this season and throw more money then expected at Stokes.
We need to land some bodies and soon IMO. I just dont think stokes will be one of them. Hope I am wrong.
Something that may help Oregon somewhat is Stokes has a big NIL deal with Nike. That's why many thought he was a Kentucky lean over Kansas for the longest time. Maybe being able to continue that deal at Oregon could offset any amount of money that the Ducks can't offer from their own collective.

Yeah, I would imagine the extra money for stokes would come from his deal with Nike, not paying extra out of the NIL if he were to come here.

Gotcha. Wouldn’t Nike pay him though regardless of where he went?

Oregon sounds like the favorite currently for Taylor Bol Bowen.
Would to have another big body. But would also love Chol Machot, need some more height in the Big Ten.
