The more I watch scouting videos of Lonzo Ball and De'Aaron Fox, the more I am inclined to want Fox. I get it with Ball. A Hollywood story if there ever was one, basketball IQ off the charts, and a magnificent passer. But my god, De'Aaron is just flat out explosive, plays defense, and if he can develop a jump shot? John Wall 2.0 with better defensive skills.


As a Kentucky fan, I didn't concentrate too much on one individual guy, and with Malik Monk making most of the headlines, Fox just kind of went under the radar. But after watching the videos? God damn. I certainly won't complain if they do draft Lonzo, however.

LaVar Ball

new RAIOLA
:lol:
In his son's defense, he is the complete opposite of his father. By all accounts, he is a quiet and humble kid. And people love to jump on Lavar for being outrageous. He is also going to have his 3 sons on basketball scholarships. How bad of a father can he be? He might be a buffoon on TV, but it seems to me that he is a good father.

And if he thinks that he is going to push Danny Ainge or Magic Johnson around, he's got another thing coming.

I have to be honest with you though. I'm kinda leaning towards Fox. Draft Express has some really good videos on all of the top prospects, and they have separate ones for strengths and weaknesses. All the Kentucky games I watched this year, and I never realized just how fast Fox is.

I don't know much about him but it would definitely be a story if Lonzo ends up sliding

We'll take Lonzo. I mean, we gave you guys Kobe, this is the least you can do.

Watch the videos of Fox and you will see what I mean in regards to his explosiveness
I guess you seen this indepth clip (matches your words in earlier posts)? Great basketball channel I subscribe to, its no hyebeast puff piece, mentions plenty of his clear raw flaws too:






Fox will go high, exceptional core qualities (tho Lonzo over him easily still IMO, that size, third eye view passing, also super speed, better shooting, Fox only have raw power on him), so hardly underrated, the truly underrated PG is Dennis Smith Jr :tuttosport:

Are you a Charlotte Hornets fan or something? Because that is how the Lakers got him

And defense, and quickness.
