NBA declaration thread

Yes but with no combine, or workouts, gonna be interesting to see if he gets the first round feedback he’s looking for. Every underclassman than has declared is “testing the waters” until they start receiving money from their agent. The ncaa changed the rule a few years back, last year Nwora had an agent while going thru the process and still returned to school bc he didn’t take any $.

No doubt Scrubb wants to go pro (as does every other prospect), but if scouts aren’t convinced by his Juco tapes he might have to spend a year playing against better competition to warrant a first round pick. If I’d have to bet, I’d bet he stays in the draft, but it’s not set in stone. If he does stay in, Louisville is gonna need the soph class to make huge strides or we are gonna have some growing pains, unless we can land multiple GTs

Let’s say he stays in—who would you project as UL’s starters next year at this time?
 
If Scrubb stays in the draft

David Johnson
JoshNickleberry/ GT
SamWilliamson
jaelyn Withers/QuinnSlazinski
Malik Williams/Aiden Igehon

We also add Davis and Traynor as freshmen but most believe they won’t be ready to contribute right away.

We really need Scrubb on campus to be considered a contender unlesss we can land multiple high quality grad transfers. If not depth is going to be a huge issue especially in the back court.

Johnson, Williamson, and Williams should form a nice nucleus, hopefully the freshman from last year make strides in their game, and hopefully we can land some GTs for more scoring punch and depth. We literally only have 2 guards after perry decided to transfer. Would love to get either the kid from bowling green or the kid from Colgate, or both but that would be unlikely.

Thanks.

Supposedly Justin Turner (Bowling Green) is down to a final 6 of Arkansas, Iowa State, Louisville, Marquette, Mizzou, and Xavier. So it seems like y'all have a legit chance.
 
Yea would really love to land Turner, he would serve as a back-up plan for Scrubb as well as have plenty minutes available, backing up Williamson and Scrubb if he does come.

Kinda afraid he willl be scared of what Scrubb will do and no tellin when or if the combine/draft process will take place any time soon. But yea we could use Turner desperately. Again our depth at guard is absolutely pitiful.
