2026 NBA draft thread

[Chicagojk]

I haven't watched a ton of Flemings but I think he is a relatively safe prospect.   He has fit in real well with a deep team that had a lot of older returning players.   To be able to fit in so seamlessly is something he deserves credit for this year.   I think I feel the best about him and Acuff.  

I am really confused on Brown and Wagler.  I hope to watch both in the tourney.  I think both fit the profile of guys who can play off the ball.  The issue is neither has really excelled in that role.   Brown looks like a boom or bust guy to me.   I want to really like him, but he has not sold me yet.  

I loved what I read about Wagler.  I made mention that he could be a smaller Kon in the right environment.   Uses his body to get where he wants, smart player, makes open shots, will compete, etc.    The lack of athleticism just really concerns me.   From what I have read he has a real nice team around him that allows a spread court.

I think this tourney will be a real nice showing for Wagler and Brown.  Not saying scouts will drastically revise their rankings, but we should get a good test on both.  I am pretty solid with both Acuff and Flemings no matter what they do.
