A 7'4" small forward. Or point forward. I'm puzzled why he's a sure thing. A better Durant, perhaps? That takes massive skills and it seems to me 7'4" is a detriment to that, both from the injury and recovery aspect.

What does it matter when you are 7'4" at the arc?

Read today that he was perhaps the best NBA draft prospect ever.

Get that shit out of here. No way.

Sounds like something written by someone born yesterday. I started paying attention to drafts in the 2000s and no one has come close to the hype (and justifying the hype) that lebron generated.

And hype aside, Lew Alcindor was the greatest prospect ever imho.

Have no idea really, probably not. But that does not make him the best NBA draft prospect ever and it is insulting to many guys who have come before him.
