He’s the best PG in the country. I’ve watched them all. He has an uncanny ability to manipulate the defense with a pass, off the dribble, or shot, he’s a REAL threat. He always gets exactly what he wants. Kyrie like space creator.

BRO TRISTEN NEWTON AND TYLER KOLEK EXISTS

[@joshokoebor2662]

@@snipermha8106 NOPE! Both them dudes is 22 while Rob is still only 18. He’ll already be a NBA all-star by 22.

[@straightoutdanawf13]

​@@joshokoebor2662hell no he not gone be an all star by then 💀. But he'll fs be in the league by then

[@joshokoebor2662]

@@straightoutdanawf13 They said the same thing about Devin, Shai, Murray, Fox, Maxey etc all made ASG by that 4th year age 22. Maxey will get it this year (year 4) age 23, missed it by 2 months lol. Even Herro, Quick & Keldon have exceeded expectations. The UK guards come in ready!

[@zdiii3795]

Elite Athletecism is a ceiling raiser, but you can't teach basketball feel. He's gonna be nice for certain

[@Zaghzackio]

I was low on him coming in due to how erractic he could be but he's clearly shown he's the most skilled player in the Draft!

[@illuminahde]

4.3/1.6 A/TO is nice off the bench too. Good percentages. He should bump that free throw up a few points too. Look for his scoring to go up.

[@FabulousResults]

Rob is #4 on my big board. He's gonna be good.

[@PepeVoltaireBartolemeMontesqui]

Are you an nba scout, why do you have a big board if you aren’t.

[@luhRvck]

wtf get off your knees😂

[@PepeVoltaireBartolemeMontesqui]

Also how is rob over topic

[@Zay2wavy64]

He probably gonna be anywhere from 15- 10 his ceilling is low end bones Hyland high end jamal crawford - cam thomas

[@slicks1175]

@@Zay2wavy64he plays nothing like them 😅

[@scootover7]

I'd like him on the Spurs , if he can play like Garland or Maxey that will be impressive, The Spurs do need a guard

[@oakleyjack7600]

I’d like Quickly at the Spurs if NY holds back paying him his worth.

[@DavidRodriguez-rm4xn]

hes more like maxey or quickley rather than garland, hes not hell of a passer

[@Agendasss]

@@DavidRodriguez-rm4xngo watch film he’s a great passer

[@myles2d129]

I’d rather see topic go to the spurs but if they can’t get him I think he’s also a good option to use with their raptors pick assuming they keep it

[@slicks1175]

My favorite fit for him

[@jewettconner3147]

Like him a lot. He reminds me of Brandon Jennings

[@relatablepain4347]

Less of the playmaker Jennings more of the scorer but def a great comp

[@ethananderson7182]

Reminds me of a Garland/Maxey hybrid, he’s gonna be an all star at the next level at least. Reed Shepherd is gonna be a very solid nba player too

[@spaceymcgrady1]

Reminds me of Maxey

[@nimatalebi1912]

even as somebody that follows hs basketball and as a kentucky fan, he blew my expectations away

[@HandlebyAK]

Great video ! I love Rob’s game.

[@misterhampton1]

He is very shifty and creative with the ball especially In transition. As he continues to get stronger and more mature he’s gonna be dangerous. I think he can make an immediate impact at the next level.

[@charlescohen6140]

Def reminds me of some great small guards.

[@Antbeast23]

Explosive scorer and is improving his defense too. His passing and long range has gotten better too. Needs to build his frame more and keep improving his shot selection

[@KashJaydoe]

Drapt comparrison- Bones Hyland

[@craftmotamarcu9079]

Toronto could really use a young point with his upside. Problem is San Antonio currently owns their pick this year (top 6 protected)

[@willdpoetry]

Wemby needs a player like him

[@helotesroadrunner2612]

Team him up with Wemby on the Spurs!

[@timdepaulis2487]

Best prospect in the draft. Reminds me of Maxey but better shooter and passer than Maxey was at the same age. Some have even said Iverson with a bit of Curry mixed in. Some see Garland. He is the best PG I’ve seen since Ja tbh.

[@phyllisbullet]

great thing about uk is all of our players seem to play defense they’ll always find a way on the court

[@cainwhiteraindro2316]

It’s DillingHIM!!

[@hectorwatt9712]

The spurs might have a second first round pick from Toronto around 6-10 and I would love him in San Antonio

[@Doinkskie]

We hope Toronto not tanking.. I think they can

[@Sigma-_-00_00]

He and wemby 🤯

[@cjg2974]

First! Love this prospect. Probably won't go top 5 but def could have top 5 upside in this class

[@doubledowell]

If the spurs drop out of the top 4 in the draft they should take this guy. Got their new Duncan, this could be their Parker.

[@MossBot]

agreed

[@mtj3314]

I think they can still get him with the Raptors pick if it conveys

[@Tokyo-sv9zi]

I see a lot of darius Garland in his game

[@wtk6069]

He can take over games, but the real reason he'll be drafted near the top is the NBA is a business first, anf this kid is must-see TV. He will pay for any contract he gets with TV ratings alone. He is the next superstar NBA player. Watch and see.

[@jaymoney6233]

Darius Garland is a great comparison I’ve heard.Rod has always been shifty I really hope he is in the lottery picks

[@jojoprocess2820]

Hes more malik monk with secondary playmaking duties

[@vixious7418]

Truely feel his game is authentic. Should be a good fit

[@janiemeece452]

This kid is going to be an nba star

[@skepticscalps]

He has the handles, passing and shooting, most important he has the it factor. Hes shifty and has flair you cannot teach.

[@nickseo7590]

Maybe im a fortune teller but i seen this when he was at combine academy, the right school would fix his mistakes and he’s trained with NBA players. I respect your opinion but his ceiling being Garland is way too low, he has the potential to be the next kyrie, in the convo as one of the most skilled guards to ever play this game, I just hope he gets drafted to a team with a good coach and good veterans to support him

[@drechester5171]

A lot of y’all forgetting he’s coming off the bench and is playing this well. More time means more comfortably flowing in the game. He is a lottery pick. Top 5 at that.

[@Home2me]

Reminds of Darius Garland with a hint of kyrie’s shot creation

[@user-pl9eg7wr2x]

Wizards we need him and he can help bring in fans

[@Del9-504]

Anybody else see a lot of Quickley in his game. I can see him having a higher ceiling though.

[@ignaciougarterebollo1582]

Its a copy. In my Raptors he's playing exactly as Bob is

[@ri-ri7888]

Future Spur

[@bmarsjpeg]

I see a lot of Brandon Jennings and garland in Rob’s game

[@conradk]

I always root for the shorter guys. With NBA height, he needs a solid game outside of the box. As well, defending the opposing rebound and inbound pass to let his team get back on defense. Everything else looks great.

[@ybk.k]

He’s gonna be a mix Jamal Crawford/Lou Williams type player in the league💯

Yes.

Your out of your mind if you think Reed will be better than Rob in the NBA. Rob’s bag 💼 work is unmatched. NBA a game that’s more spread out, gives Gaurds like Rob even more room to cook 🧑🏾‍🍳.

[@Freebands460]

He may be a better college guard but won’t be a better nba player lol. Similar to Zach edey he’s the most dominant college player but won’t touch a nba court 😂

Better than scoot Henderson
