Pretty much all of Kentucky and Dukes players are predicted to get drafted. Many are freshmen that haven’t dribbled a ball in college yet. Zero Kansas players on the list of pro prospects, yet someone will end up playing professional ball due to development in college. I’d wager KU will have a better season than both those teams in spite of the lack of day one nba talent.

Timberlake, Hunter and Juan are all guys that won’t be drafted but are really freaking good college players. Kevin too, probably.

The 2024 is very open at this point and hard to nail anyone down. There isn’t a consensus top guy and prospects are all over the map. Elmarko Jackson does appear in pretty much every mock ranging from late lottery to early second round in every mock I’ve seen except for ESPN’s. I would also say that Givony’s mock might be the most out there of the mocks I’ve seen post draft amd wouldn’t put a ton of stock in his projections.

Wouldn’t Hunter be one of those big bench bodies in the nba? Guys that come in the game so the starters can rest?

Hunter is likely a guy who gets a two way deal as an undrafted free agent. It’s possible he could be a late second rounder, but I think UFA amd a two-way deal is more likely for Hunter.
