Ranking the 2023 NBA Draft Class So Far...

[@JustBaIIin]

Yea I have no idea what happened to the tier list and didn’t put in Black, Jaime, or Cason Funny enough I’d have them all in good starter / role player. Cason can be a true elite 3nD guy one day. Defense is already there. Don’t think he makes an ASG Black has the most AS potential of the 3. But he has to find his role still but can do a lot of things well right now and will continue to improve Jaime has the lowest ceiling because of his age but will always be a solid half court starter for the next 5+ years I apologize about that again I suck for that!

[@bkelly625]

@@JustBaIIin Cason Wallace ceiling is higher than Anthony Black imo… Cason started the year in a shooting slump but last two months he’s been way way more efficient than Black and also is a better defender and athlete. Black has had way more opportunity to seize a significant offensive role and he is inept on that end for the most part… Cason has a lot more offensively to show when given the chance he can playmake and create his own shot a bit not just 3 and D… also their advanced stats aren’t close at all. Black would play zero minutes on the Thunder tbh

[@idskohli]

Also Andre Jackson Jr. is a starter this season! He’s consistently guarding the best player on the opposing team and is one of the best defenders on the team. That’s decent development. IMO his potential is anywhere between pat bev and jrue holiday

[@user-kf8xv4qe4c]

In the latest game even though the box score didn’t really show it, scoot still had a really good game for his standards it’s just that he was being very unselfish (maybe a bit too unselfish) but still it looked like the game has slowed down for him and he’s not making his bonehead plays anymore

[@Top2Bottom22]

Fax he was cooking on the defensive end aswell

[@nobionekanobi]

Where’s Anthony Black?

[@Comicbookyoutubersrock]

Scoot’s been looking solid lately. Even though they lost to the Thunder tonight, he put up a 25 point game with 5 assists. His teammate Toumani put up a 24 point 9 rebound, 4 assist game in this one as well.

[@zebgunnarsson1302]

Rayan rupert will be a solid nba guy imo. its just billups who somehow plays banton ahead of him

[@hoomanhashemi8613]

Keyonte is already a solid started in the league and he just turned 21 years old. He'll be all-star caliber in a couple seasons.

[@kingsamthefirst5053]

youve redeemed yourself in my mind for the Blazers (basically the scoot henderson) Love. And that young lineup of Scoot, Sharpe, Camara, Deni, Clingan should be really fun next year

[@NixonsParanoia]

Jarace has actually looked incredible in the minutes he's gotten the past 2 months. His defensive gambles are less costly, he's guarding his man well, his hands are incredible, he's shown flashes of amazing connective passing, and he's hitting from deep. He's making a strong case to take minutes from Obi, Sheppard, or Nesmith. At his ceiling he could be a more offensively talented (and less dirty) Draymond

[@liammmmcculloch]

Bruno cabolco 2 years away from being 2 years away is such a good line lmao

[@mariooce]

Cam Whitmore has all star potential. If he was on a bad team like the hornets, he’d be averaging close to 25 ppg on good efficiency, but you have an inefficient one dimensional chucker in miller ranked as all NBA.

[@florida1289]

So Cam would be scoring more than Cade, Victor and Kyrie with that .327 from 3 if he was on a bad team???? Yikes!!!

[@rileymcphee9429]

Kris Murray is actually playing pretty well. Change of scenery, maybe, but definitely has a solid ceiling of role player.

[@joshuabradshaw9257]

Yeah, the numbers aren’t there but he has been really solid in his development. Per 36 his numbers are almost identical to Keegan Murray’s this year. Definitely has a future as a role player

[@Hopstephoops]

Keyontae george will be an all star cmon now

[@RicardoFlores-pn6px]

I believe you missed Jaime Jaquez, Jr. In the 2023 draft class. Frustrating that one of a handful of Latinos in the NBA he was overlooked. All Rookie first team…. Not as productive this year but will play more during and after the Butler fiasco.

[@andrewazevedo6343]

What’s up Matt, I suggested this on your Six Rings of Steel channel and don’t know if you checked it out or not but I would highly recommend trying out zen basketball gm. It’s a free and amazing basketball game that has gotten SO much better over the years thanks to the many contributors to the game. I personally like it better than 2k because it’s more challenging and the trades and free agents asking price are WAY more realistic. You have to manage a budget and can get fired if you spend too much money or are bad for too long. If you do give it a go, I know myself and a big community of basketball gm fans would love to see you try it on like the second channel. Some tips: - The overalls look very different than 2k, where players overall and potential can range from 0-100. The gm manual will show you that 70 overalls are typically the best players in the league and 50 overalls are role players. A bit to getting used to but makes more sense as you play. (Some overalls you see MAY be different than the real overalls if your scouting budget isn’t high) - Potential is not a guaranteed overall the player will reach, it can go up and down during player progression. It’s hard to explain but basically the players career is simulated like 50 times and the average overall is the potential or something like that - I suggest that you use an ad blocker ONLY if you make a video to make it look better. Since it’s a free game, it’s good to support the creators by using ads but they don’t care if you use one. - Trading block is similar to trade finder in 2k - You can use real players or auto generated players (which is what I usually do). - BE CAREFUL about spending too much money because you CAN get fired if you lose a lot of money or are bad for too long As a long time viewer, it would be really awesome to see a rebuild on this game and I hope you give it a try. If you don’t end up making a video, at least give it a try and let me know what you think of it. Thank you for the content over the years and I wish you all the best.

[@NetsToTheFinals]

Dariq asked the Nets to let him play more in the G league to develop this year and to try to maximize his reps because he’s working on getting his athleticism back, even had a poster in the g league. He should play in the nba tonight though which could be exciting.

[@jojofinesse2310]

Coming from a Pacers fan idk how Jarace could have taken a step back when he’s already played more games than he did the whole season last year plus doubled his averages. He’s a great defender and you can tell he’s really been working on that shot. A bit inconsistent but he’s young atleast he’s putting in that work in other areas of his game.

[@bkelly625]

Gradey Dick is a solid player but I don’t think he has any standout traits to make him have All-Star upside… he’s a 5th starter type or maybe 4th imo. Good not elite shooter, below average but not terrible defensively, good not great athlete…

[@thetwiggamingchannel9578]

Lively can definitely shoot, the coach just isn't using him as a 3 point shooter heavily. His form looks good though and he can make them in practice, so I think he's going to eventually be a nice play finisher in the pick and roll while being able to pop as a mix-p and make defenses pay.

This probably would have been easier for you if you made MVP/All-NBA as the top tier and separated Starter and Role Player into their own tiers. Having one tier between All-Star and Role Player is too wide

[@Nerobianko1903]

No such a difference between Amen and Ausar especially considering that Ausar missed too many games due to blood clot issue and still play under minutes restriction. He’s still doing great and I believe his shot will be better than his twin.
