A 3 and D guy without the 3. Has so many skills but just can't shoot. Is there a place for a kid like this in the NBA? I guess we'll see. Don't feel like he can be an NBA pg so what's his position?

Good questions. The article said in their mock draft they have him as the 42nd pick. I don’t see that getting any better if he decides to withdraw and comes back for another year.

Draymon Greene without the attitude.

They were able to use draymond effectively as a center for years. Harder to hide a wing guy. Josh Hart isn’t a terrible shooter but he’s closer to a non-shooter than most and he’s proven immensely valuable for the Knicks.

Hart is the guy that came to my mind regarding Jackson.
 
Ben Simmons without the personality and hopefully for him without the injuries.
Simmons can’t shoot from the outside or free throw line, and now doesn’t even want to shoot even when he is near the basket. IMHO has no desire to play, just likes the pay check.
 
Happy I don't need to be bitter about Hurley anymore now that we have Pitino. That is the type of recruiting I expect here for '24 and beyond.
