With the draft in less than 12 days and ignoring any crazy franchise altering trades that may be floating around the internet I thought it would be interesting to just made simple prediction or who we think will top Stevens board when the #27/#40 picks are on the clock.
#27
Sergio De Larrea, 20yr Spanish PG/Wing his measurements where just made public 6'6 barefoot 206lbs with a 6'9 wingspan. He is listed everywhere as a PG and Brad has proven to like the "jumbo initiator types" over a traditional PG. I say this because rather than signing any number of 6'1-6'3 PGs this past season he instead elected to sign the 6'8 Banton and 6'5 Harper. Also like Hugo he has been a fixture of the Spanish national team for years. On the court he is a knock down 3pt shooter who I think has some positive positional overlap with Baylor. Where Hauser is really a 4/3, Baylor is a 3/2, and I think De Larrea will prove to be more the 2/3 combo guard type who can handle the point when called upon.
Zuby Ejifor, a guy who has been talked about a lot on here but I think he will be high up the Stevens board for the versatility and NBA readiness he will bring as a rookie.
#40
Baba Miller, like Zuby he has been well covered on this board. Bottom line he is unique and provides a real upside swing in the 2nd round
Jack Kayli, 20yr German PG, he is a curious prospect to me in that he commited to Gonzaga for what was likely a good chuck of NIL money but then decalared he was staying in the draft to join what is looking like a generational PG class. He is roughly the same size of D White as gives me a Killian Hayes vibe. Hayes is much maligned as a bust but was over drafted at #7 and becuase of this over cast in a role he wasn't ready for. In the 2nd or even late first Kayli will be given room to grow in the G-League and in a reduced role and could yield future starting PG upside.
