Gonna break from my secret strategy and draft my first freshman.

No idea who is after Jimbo.

are there any KY players you didn't draft? If this goes any more rounds you're gonna end up picking Calipari's ugly kid who wore the weird 2 tone jacket on the sideline. IF the draft goes really deep you'll probably draft KY Jelly.
Hopefully at least one of the three will do well.
 
Could be a really great pick. I didn’t realize he was that close to being back on the court.
Yeah, I saw it yesterday and was really hoping no one else would notice. I'm a little worried about him coming back from an ACL tear so quickly but if he can shake the rust off, Bama can be an NCAA team again and he could garner 1st team SEC and HM AA honors. That's big value in the 12th round.
 

Two Tulane players have been drafted in the same year?!

Only a few picks left. I wonder how relevant Mr. Irrelevant will be this year. Last year's Mr. Irrelevant was Keion Brooks, who racked up a massive 3.3 points for @JimboBBN.

Keion Brooks wouldn't be a terrible Mr. Irrelevant pick this year. Should be the top guy at Washington. It's always a bonus when you play in the Pac-12 and you don't have to compete against too many top 50 players for 1st Team All-Conference.

For those wondering about the Duke freshmen:

-Dereck Lively could be back for the opener on Monday, but he's more likely to miss that game.
-Earliest Dariq Whitehead returns is most likely against Kansas. But, not a guarantee he plays in that game, either.

Hope to have both back before the end of the month.
 
Eat it losers.

Trayce Jackson-Davis, Indiana
Dariq Whitehead, Duke
Ryan Kalkbrenner, Creighton
Sahvir Wheeler, Kentucky
Julian Strawther, Gonzaga
GG Jackson, South Carolina
Jamison Battle, Minnesota
Antonio Reeves, Kentucky
Nolan Hickman, Gonzaga
Emoni Bates, Eastern Michigan
Darrion Trammell, San Diego State
Daimion Collins, Kentucky

I could rearrange them and they'd all seem like first round picks.

damn that's terrible. I'm waiting for DD to post the rosters so I know who I have. Already forgot most of my team.

I think you need a few more SEC guys, brother
 
I want a prediction from Devilz on how he thinks teams will finish
I’m not feeling great about my team. I felt just out of reach of the obvious top picks so not confident I have any All Americans.

I think Devilz compared our picks to his personal rankings at the end last year. Would be cool if he did that again.

Here is what he posted last year:

Here are the composite rankings. If you're the #1 rated player, you receive 100 points. #100 player receives 1 point.

I'd take my chances. 3 1st Round Picks, 2 3rd Round Picks, a 4th Rounder, and a 5th Rounder. And maybe Justin Moore gets healthy soon.

I want a prediction from Devilz on how he thinks teams will finish

I'll try to do something similar to last year where I get the composite rankings. I think I should take my rankings out, since that naturally tilts towards my own players... and CBS just dropped a top 100 list recently. So, I'd have four different top 100 rankings to factor in.

Care to show yours to the side? It doesn’t need to be within the composites.

No worries if not. More just curious.
