    Such an overrated class, IMO.

    Wiggins goes ghost in every big game. Parker was outplayed by a kid from fucking MERCER. Randle disappears for long stretches at a time. Exum is a complete unknown but at the very least hasn't depleted his stock with actual games, so I like him the best.

      Parker played too much out on the wing and wasn't doing enough in the post...due to the guard playing being shitty and not being able to execute a pass into the post. If you want to think that's indicative of their future talents in the NBA where the game is wide open, Doug McBuckets can be your #1 pick.

          A lot of kids that shouldn't have gone to college in the first place with expected results, I s'pose.

          I don't think this effects too many of these guys stocks outside of Wiggins though.

            It wont effect Wiggins stock either, unless you mean that he may drop to 3rd in the draft. NBA execs know Wiggins did not benefit much from learning at the college level, especially at a program like Kansas where he had all the talent around him to play a team game. He'll benefit much more from growth and coaching on the next level, and how much the game will open up more for him. Id be shocked if he fell out of the top 3.

                That is what I mean.

                He would have been the #1 last year and this year without college...now he drops to #3...maybe? Not seeing anyone else really drop. Randle was what...#3 projection before the year, now I guess is the #4 or #5?

                Embiid moved up, so it knocks guys down at least one spot by proxy.

                    Won't effect their individual stocks, I would agree. I'm just speaking holistically here. This much heralded draft class that 10-15 teams were rumored to be tanking to get into has turned out to be merely an above average crop as a whole. Some huge upside here but I don't think it's gonna be #historic, I see 2-3 all stars here, but no #leets.

                          Tyler Ennis will forgo his final three years of eligibility and enter the NBA Draft, according to a report from Jeff Goodman of ESPN.com.

                            James Young declared today. Bittersweet since he was the best player on the team last season.

                            I agree on this class being overrated. This class is the epitome of "drafting potential"

                            UCLA's Zach LaVine is pure doodie cake but the mocks have him going in the first round.

                            I expect the twins and Dakari Johnson to declare for the draft still though. I'm appalled Cauley-Stein is returning.

                              this draft is stupid. about 35 players leaving early with some still deciding.

                              DLeague gonna be off the hook next year.
