Judah Mintz to test NBA Draft waters

[jdubs30]

IMO if he stays in it says more about him wanting to be done with college NOW than it does anything else. Historically when we are debating if a guy should stay or go we are asking "will he be a first rounder" . For a guy to knowingly go into this draft ether means to me he just doesn't want to be here, and is fine making $50k or whatever in the G League was a way out.

Nah this is totally off base

I've heard that after the semester ended, Judah packed up and left campus. Didn't hear anything about incompletes, him bailing on school, etc.

But it's understandable that he "didn't seem to be around school much" from that point forward, given that he was 100% focused on the NBA draft process.

I assume this is typical of most guys who went through the same process Judah did

I love how many phycologists we have on here that know why a 19 year old they have never met is motivated to make HIS decision

It's 2023. Guys don't have to stay on campus to keep up with school.

if his intention was to go pro he prob finished his final class in december. Hard to put the hard hat back on educationally if that is the agenda.

i'll be shocked if he decides to stay

He can do everything online now a days.

May want to stand clear of message boards, or the internet in general.

It’s the same demographic that thinks the NBA doesn’t play defense.

I know how it works...just pointing out this idiocy of it all.

demographic ≠ opinion of defense in the NBA.
I believe you meant "psychographic".

‘Defense is a lost art’: has the NBA’s offensive explosion gone too far?

Has defense fallen by the wayside in today’s NBA? According to some of the most influential players and coaches in the league, the answer is a resounding yes

FAU preseason Top 5? That may be a stretch.

Finished 17th per Kenpom and bring back 90% of their minutes played

I'd put them as Top 15 maybe 10th as a stretch. Don't see them as a top 5 team. they had a great year but it will be difficult for them to repeat their feat even with all of the players back.

He had his name in the portal as well, so he probably wasn’t coming back to Mizzou regardless.

Why would people who study algae know anything special about a 19 year old unless that 19 year old was kelp?

 

[SUfanNC]

Maybe that's the guarantee he's working on.

Hey Judah...

Man...what a dummy I am. I am not even going to change that. I love it.

If judah knew for certain which way he was going, why wouldn't he come out and say it? I
have to think he is torn even now.

But that would probably mean over thinking it. Judah, just come back, young man. We need to get to know you better.
