    Was talking about this on /r/NBA_Draft earlier, but I am extremely concerned that so far in his G-League Showcase games, Ron Holland is averaging 13/5.8/2.6 with far more turnovers than he has assists. Anything more than 1 or 2 dribbles is probably getting turned over. His jump shooting is abysmal, he can basically only score at the rim on dunks and layups. Looks awesome driving to the rim and his athleticism is for real, but that’s his only skill. Anything beyond 5-8 feet is not going in. His jump shooting percentage is 17.1%.

    SEVENTEEN. POINT. ONE. PERCENT.

    He’s out of my top 5. Really hope we don’t pick this dude. People said that Scoot’s shooting might be a potential reason for him not to go #2 overall, and Holland is shooting far worse against similar competition.

      I’m with you. I’m out on both of these guys really. I’m hoping for any of collier, topic, ja’kobe, or castle. Wouldn’t be mad if we took sarr either but like the other 4 better.

        That’s a pretty solid top 5. Topic is my #1 overall pick. I hope he stays under peoples’ radars so we can hopefully snag him at 3 or 4 and preserve our first pick luck for Cooper in 2025.

          Exactly my thoughts as well. I’m not counting on grabbing a star in this draft. Just want a high level role player with positional size. Hopefully save some lotto luck for Flagg or boozer twins. I like topic as well. Would be good to grab a point guard early in the rebuild since they take so long to develop
