More Talented; Auburn's Jabari Smith or Duke's Banchero?

[Random UK Fan]

Smith has moved to #1 pick in mock draft. Banchero's pretty good too I hear.

If you were going to build a team around one of them, which would it be?

Smith. More versatile and can stroke it from deep.

It is hard to teach 6'10". I go with Smith.

edit: was that Jones? What I mean to say is that long kid at Auburn.

Both are great players, but obviously you pick the 6’-10” guy who can do it all. I mean he shoots 45% from 3 for goodness sakes.

Bizarre how zero Duke fans have backed their guy here and only one AU fan so far.

What could those fans possibly be doing instead?

And about the same from 2. 🤣

Jabari has higher upper side. Both are solid though. The Chet holmgren love at the nba level is what I don’t get. He will get broken at that level

Honestly, you can't go wrong with either one. I think Banchero is more athletic but Smith is about as polished as you can get for an 18 year old. He has the work ethic and the attitude to be an all star. I'm sure Banchero has similar qualities. I'm obviously biased so I'll go Jabari.

I’m leaning this way too. Bert.

Banchero another good night. Didn't see how Smith did today.

I'd take either one or both right now.

He had a bad game. Our whole team did.

Sometimes it is better to be lucky than good. Auburn looked pitiful the last two games.

Smith! Way more upside

Every team has bad stretches. Just happy they are W’s. Not having Zep is clearly a problem for us.
