    gotta admit, i'm a closet dsj fan. i could definitely see him flaming out, but i can also see him being the guy that everyone wishes they didn't pass on. so much ability there. him, fultz, and jackson have crazy high ceilings, imo.

    i wasn't super impressed with the tiny bit i saw of lydon, but i read some really positive scout reviews on him. question to me is whether he has the resolve to get his body in nba condition. he looked doughy to me in college, which is a concern. but so was kevin love.

    Tyler Lydon at #28 would be nice especially if the Lakers get Ball.

    Lydon can be used like a TJ Leaf

    I'd have to see DSJ up close and interview him. I really hated his body language and his lack of aggressiveness.

    Lydon currently looks thin to me... by NBA locker room I really meant weight room and personal training as well. Picture above looks good to me, shooting defined looking arms.

    Lydon is very thin and very weak. He needs to hit the gym in order to have a long-term career in the NBA.

    Our boy Semi was impressive. I'll be really upset if he's still on the board at #28 and we don't seriously consider him

    Of this list-

    Briscoe- A guard built in the mold of Baron Davis: thick, strong, physical. He has a Marcus Smart-ness about his game. Take that as you will.
    Iwundu- Has some 3 & D potential. If he goes undrafted, I'd love to see him on the Defenders.
    Kornet- A 7 footer that plays like a SG/SF, but not in a good way. I was utterly unimpressed with what I saw. I've seen him on draft boards and I figure it's all height.
    Graham- Not on many radars. Probably a D-Leaguer. Reminds me of Vander Blue. Good athlete, pretty good shooter. Scorer, not a passer.
    Moore- Another SMU kid. He's a 6'6", non-shooting PF so there's just not much there. Good hustler though.
    Humphries- A big lug. Basically all rebounding. Not a great athlete, not a scorer, less than ideal NBA length.

    I'm not surprised. He was plummeting down draft boards.

    If we do indeed draft Ball this is the perfect guy to draft at 28, he'll be our Josh Jackson lite
