David Roddy from Colorado St. Is going to be a borderline 1st round pick. He is from MN

The quality of basketball at the college level is so much better than it was 15-20-30 years ago. The strength and conditioning and skills are off the charts. I would struggle as an NBA scout to choose.

How many All Americans will go undrafted or late in the 2nd round this year?

Holmgren has 19pts 17rebs 4asst 7 blocks. Seems almost effortless.

St. Peter's may be one of the better coached teams I've seen. They really have their shit together in terms of team defense and executing their offense.

Not impressed with Cockburn for those of you who think his size may be a difference maker for the Wolves and we should target him in the draft. Seems very heavy-footed. Big and strong for sure, but that advantage shrinks considerably at the next level. His decision making is very slow along with his foot speed. He also plays on a pretty low burn intensity wise.

I'd definitely rank Oscar Tshiebwe higher than Cockburn, although I don't think he's a guaranteed difference maker either.

Ya no thank you on Cockburn for me. He can't shoot, is not a good roller and a good but not elite rebounder. Would rather have a guy who can be a constant roller on offense

I don't see either of them being a good fit for the Wolves. Not sure either of them will stick in the NBA, to be honest.

I watched a chunk of that game against Houston and I had the same thoughts Q. I might be interested him with a 2nd rounder or I suppose a 2-way deal but what ai saw today didn't really make me want to target him at all. He didn't look very explosive vertically.
