The #1 2020 prospect, drawing comparisons to Clyde Drexler and Kobe, skipping the NCAA to play in the G-League for $500,000. Kinda glad to see two top-3 prospects in a row go elsewhere before going into the draft (Ball first, now Green - don't forget RJ Hampton doing the same).

He didn't progress as expected from his junior to senior years. He's still a top prospect but it may good idea to focus strictly on his game. He needs work if he wants to be a top pick. Next year's draft looks deep so he has competition. Some really good prospects are coming. Let's hope we get full year of bball. Right now they'd all be playing all-star games and such circuits.That's a big developmental tool taken away from them.

His name says he’d fit in here well. The new triple Js. 👍👍😄

Good news. Hope this trend of more and more high-level prospects going straight to the g-league continues. Make the g-league a feeder league worth watching.
