The 2023 NBA Combine is in the books! Maxwell takes you through the stock risers, interesting measurements, players with tough choices ahead, and the fallers from the event!
I thoroughly enjoyed reading your article, "The 2023 NBA Draft Combine Recap." It was truly a remarkable piece, and I wanted to express my appreciation for your work.
Your article was not only well-written but it is also highly informative. The depth of analysis and insights you provided make it clear that you possess a deep understanding of basketball. It's evident that you put a lot of thought and effort into crafting this piece, and it paid off beautifully.
Thanks for reading! I take a lot of pride in my work, and there isn’t much in this world that I love more than the game basketball and the scouting process. I’m glad you enjoyed it!
Agreed that miles didn't have a great combine showing, but I do think he can hang his hat on driving and finishing as a signature skill, he was almost 70% at the basket as a primary option in a good conference
I think that’s fair. I wrote about him a while and noted how absurd of a mark that is for a player his size. My question ultimately boils down to the scalability of that skill after seeing him look more “normal” on a bigger floor. There’s still an argument to be made for him with regard to how bad the spacing was at TCU. Personally, I’d rather just swing on someone with a jumper that’s in a similar place with more size to compete on the defensive end.

Also, genuine question: what makes Rupert a better prospect than Walsh?
I don’t believe that he is, I personally have Walsh higher at the moment.

Who are a few guys that you're much higher on than consensus and who are some guys you're much lower on than consensus?
Higher:
-Maxwell Lewis, Bilal Coulibaly, Brice Sensabaugh, Jett Howard
Lower:
-Keyonte George and Nick Smith Jr. come to mind first
I'm sold on Mintz and Bailey being first round prospects, too good all around and both only being 19 to not be considered in my opinion.
