Judah Mintz to test NBA Draft waters

[Jake]

I’m hearing they are considerably more confident

I got the sense the 50-50 was trending back from a more dire outcome.

Plenty of kids make decisions that in hindsight turned out to be the wrong one. In the moment, sure, they think they’re making the best choice, but you can’t declare that it’s guaranteed to be the right one for him unless you’re a psychic.

Right.

Like wearing Crocs.

 

[Timonen]

So the way it stands now, he probably wont risk staying in the draft since he is currently late 2nd at best. The risk of not getting drafted is way to high. The G league does not make sense financially. If not returning to college, he still has the option of playing overseas. Unless his draft status changes, I think he comes back to school!

There’s a business logic rationale for guessing what he’ll do but that’s not how humans typically operate. He might really like the idea of not having any academic responsibilities and like being able to play basketball all day every day to make himself better. That’s a perfectly reasonable trade off if it makes him happier day to day.

Wong looking very solid in first scrimmage. Same for Andre Jackson

 

[Highbanks]

How many scrimmages are there?

 

[SUFaninNJ]

Judah at 4:15

Is that Maurice Hines or Gregory Hines?

 

[rrlbees]

How many scrimmages are there?

Two today two tomorrow. Each of the 4 teams play one game each day so Judah will play twice.

I’ve never heard Isaiah Wing speak before.

 

[Orangezoo]

I’ve never heard Isaiah Wing speak before.

Same here. Such a mild mannered kid vs how aggressive his game is.

For me seeing Givony have Judah at 55 and his comments on the impact of the scrimmages- really iffy for Judah here. Outside shining in these scrimmages all around... such a tough spot to be in.

Judah not starting on his team..

 

[Orangezoo]

Judah not starting on his team..

Doesn't really matter in this setting FYI

 

[NYCCuse826]

Emoni Bates is putting shots up.

 

[Cuse99&01]

Emoni Bates is putting shots up.

That is what he does. Had 140 more shot attempts than any other player on his team this past year.

 

[rrlbees]

Judah coming in

 

[OrangeDW]

That is what he does. Had 140 more shot attempts than any other player on his team this past year.

So one could say he’s a “generational talent” in terms of putting shots up?

 

[rrlbees]

Judah coming in

Guess not

 

[Orangezoo]

Judah not in first wave of subs either

 

[Cuse'91]

Head scratcher.

 

[Cuse'91]

Not super impressed with overall talent at Combine.

 

[tee1222]

Let the kid play instead of pumping up the same two or three guys. Chucker central!

 

[Lukeyloo]

It looks like another sub is coming in before Judah. Sure it isn't telling of where the coach is putting him on the totem pole?
