Jase Richardson kinda plays like that guy who used to play for Tennessee. I forgot his name hes around the same size guard, pesky defender, drafted by Miami.
@@FloorandCeiling Imo Tre Johnson is the best bucket getter in the draft and he's starting to show flashes of being able to do more too. Kasparas to me I like in the top 20... but he's overhyped imo and is a suped up Dellavedova. A better version, but a quality back up or low end starter in the league. I don't think he has a Trae Young impact or Luka and he doesn't defend that well imo either. If you can't play defense in the league you better impact the offense like them. Tre Johnson is maybe an All-Star someday or at least borderlines it. Fears and Tre Johnson I feel will impact the game well, and depending on where they land will do really well. Tre Johnson has a skill that he can hang his hat on while improving in other areas.
@@FloorandCeiling Cause he's a bucket getter. Elite scoring ability and has good size. If I'm picking in the top 5, I want guys that can create their own shots and potentially be a star.
I guess some of these are sleepers... Not really though, I think everyone knows these guys. Oh yeah and I wouldn't project freshman in the second round.
If you're pretty involved in the draft community, you'll know these guys. If you're a casual, not really. For example, on The Athletic's most recent big board, only Jase Richardson out of the 5 players I feature was listed. In Bleacher Report's latest mock, Richardson and Cofie aren't mentioned at all. And regarding your other point about not projecting freshmen in the second round, here are the list of freshmen who have been selected in the second round since I started covering the draft: JT Thor, Greg Brown, Sharife Cooper, Brandon Boston Jr, Caleb Houstan, Max Christie, Kennedy Chandler, Bryce McGowens, Trevor Keels, Moussa Diabate, Josh Minott, Kendall Brown, JD Davison, Julian Phillips, Jordan Walsh, Amari Bailey, GG Jackson, Chris Livingston, Johnny Furphy, Cam Christie, and Bronny James. If you want to argue that the success rate on these is incredibly limited or even nonexistent, go for it. I won't push back. But there are freshmen who get drafted every year in the second round (even if that trend is going down), so it's something I have to factor in for my analysis. Like I mentioned in this video, I'd advise Cofie to return to school for 2026. In Sanon's case, he outright said he'd be a one-and-done.
@@FloorandCeiling Would you include a guy like Cofie over a prospect like Wooley??? He's not mentioned in too many draft communities, but probably better. Jeremiah Fears isn't a sleeper and hasn't been for a few weeks now... What about Mobley, Jr.? Maybe Josh Harris??? Those to me are sleepers. Cofie is an acceptable sleeper, Thomas Sorber to me isn't a sleeper at all anymore... Not saying the content is bad or anything, just giving my perspective. I guess I get it though, you are for the audience of a casual draft guy that can be really into basketball in some way... it's all good...

The video is, as usual, interesting, but the detailed information on Wilko's Substack is even more so. Don't miss it.
Thanks! And I agree - go subscribe to the FLOOR and CEILING Substack.
Totally agree👍
Fears is top #5 draft prospect right now.
Who's your other 4?
@@FloorandCeiling Flagg, Harper, Bailey and Johnson
Crazy Timing 😂
It’s almost like I knew Fears would drop a 30 piece…

Josh Richardson?
Fears the real deal Joliet illinois stand up
He’s gonna be in my next top 10 most likely.
👍
🤲
Fears is top 5 this year imo. Only Flagg, Harper, Bailey and Johnson might be better than him.
I have the same, but Johnson and Fears in the same tier, best fit available between the 2...
For both of you guys - what puts Tre Johnson in your top fives? I feel like he's the prospect who's least included out of everyone mentioned.

Fears just dropped 30
He’s a big time hooper
