I read that we worked out Oscar Tshiebwe and Landers Nolley II. I watched the highlights but does anyone have a good break down of either guy?

Rangy long armed wing Rayan Rupert. His handle looks very nice.

Oscar Tshiebwe is an interesting guy. He is the best rebounder in college basketball, and possesses a powerful 260lb frame. On top of that he is 6'9" with a 7'3" wingspan and a 9' standing reach. His offensive rebounding in particular is incredible, thanks to his endless motor. His offensive game is fairly limited, but with the way he attacks the offensive glass he generates a lot of additional possessions for his team. He's good, not great defensively - disruptive hands that generate steals and blocks, and a powerful figure inside, but his perimeter defence isn't great.

His rebounding percentage is Dennis Rodman-like. Just inhales them. He could top out as an Isaiah Stewart type physical big man.

Landers Nolley is an intriguing guy. A lot of his game reminds me of when Evan Turner was a Celtic
'23 Historical Draft: Orlando Magic.

PG: Terry Porter (90-91) / Steve Francis (00-01)
SG: Joe Dumars (92-93) / Jeff Hornacek (91-92) / Jerry Stackhouse (00-01)

Thx. Both of those guys seem like interesting 2nd rounders... Rebounding is one of the most translatable skills.

I think you have to roll the dice on Edey if he is out there.

The odds of that pick materializing into anything is slim to begin with so not roll the dice on a guy like him?

Tsihebwe reminds me of Biyombo with a little better offensive game. Not much of an above the rim finisher.
Nolley is like Horry but without hustle.

For bigs, I wanted Ware (big potential) but I think he pulled his name in this year's draft. Edey, Gueye or Sanogo in descending order.

At 35, I'd like us to pick Kobe Brown or Podziemski. Either one is ready to contribute. Kobe would be a very strong SG/SF and a great mismatch to opposing teams. Podziemski could be the Herro that was picked ahead of us.

Tristan Vukcevic is a good offensive player/ shooter. I don't know who he can defend at the next level but his shot is money.

We should be hunting a big or a guy who can play 2-4. A multiple positional defender would be an excellent fit.

I also like Mojave King ( I know another guard, LOL)... This draft has a lot of useful second rounders.
