Nick smith JR! Ranked #3 in 2022..I also remember 2022 preseason mocks had him going #1 in the draft end up going 27th and has yet to even crack the hornets rotation
I have a women’s hoops stunted growth…Zia Cooke..viral in HS then goes to SC does great wins a chip then drafted lottery only to be a bench player so far averaging 3.5 pts & only 9 mins a game.
@@ScamNewton-vd8dd for starters this her 2nd year & it’s not her play it’s her playtime you don’t draft a player 10th to play them 10 minutes a game unless they not as good as you thought or behind the scene politics..
He should've stayed one more year of high school ...but great kid and great talent high character person I met him at ucberkeley and spoke real brief and he played great at ucberkeley under the circumstances ....I feel like he will play a year or 2 in g league and will become on a nba roster praying for this kid
Man back in those mid 2010's you couldn't tell me Corey wasn't up next goes out and balls at Rutgers as a rookie when a lot didn't think his playstyles would translate to the next level but after that it all jus kinda fell off he really could a been this generations baron davis
Yeah I used to love watching Sanders play. Thing is at his size I’m pretty sure nba scouts didn’t believe his game would translate at all. If he was a better shooter I think he would’ve got a shot
Are his parents not in his life? 4 schools in 5 years is irresponsible, lazy and concerning. How was nobody there who cared about to tell him to stay put and grind? That's ridiculous
i think he didnt have great athleticism or size which made it harder to score versus the caliber of athletes/size of athletes; i think his passing held up, but the inconsistent shooting...limited him as a playmaker. Still very good passing..but w/out the threat of being a bucket it gets harder as a playmaker
You're always talking about talent and luck. I feel like you should acknowledge spiel habit, character and willing to adapt to the game and team your playing in and on
I disagree, you dont have to be ready but mentally you gotta be at a different spot because they really ran that program as if it was an nba to prepare the players, if you werent ready for that you would burn out
I forgot the name of the dude that was drafted this year and went to 3 schools in 3 years I was like hell nah of I am a gm I aint taking that player lol
I remember seeing him at Kentucky, it was a dream fit for a lot of players that like to score. Its like they were pretty much begging him to score the ball but he just didn't because he wasn't a Kentucky type of point guard fr.
i played against this dude in some private runs since my cousin was on the Mater Dei team. He was very good and i did think he was league bound since his shot and passing were so high level. too bad he didnt flesh out as well as i thought but i still think he can carve out a good career.
@@richardnyahoe8172 He should be a top 10 possibly top 5 GPOAT but he is not. He had all the physical gifts to be in the same class as a Kobe Bryant but he is not. He needs to do a stunted Growth as to why.
Kentucky was never a good fit for him and he should have never reclassed. He should have waited and went to a pac school. Not saying he would of been nba guy but better in college
He always seem like an industry plant . He was always around the top guys in his class from a young age so it seemed like he got notoriety by default . But every time I saw him play with his actual school team where he was the guy , he never played well .
I watched him play in High School and at Kentucky. I liked his fire. He was a good player but not elite at anything. To be fair, few make it at his height and body frame unless they are explosive athletes. Trey is an exception but he has 2 elite skills. Chris Paul is an exception but he is one of the highest IQ players in league history….I actually think what kills players like Devin’s career is spending summers playing AAU ball (which glorifies the wrong things like isolation ball) instead of spending Summers improving court vision, creation skills, and learning how to make reads. His great isolation scoring ability gave him a false sense of where he was developmentally and that crippled him at the college level where the players are bigger, faster, and stronger.
Only question they have him listed at 6’5 which makes me think he is 6’3? Trae is barely 6’1 w/ shoes. So wondering was he way over represented since you mentioned most players rarely for his size??
He was good in high school but his ego was huge and his attitude was bad. That Kentucky team he was on had a lot of other dudes that just didn’t play well together.
I really thought he was gonna be better than Nico Mannion, I guess I was wrong. I essentially thought he was gonna be like Anthony Black, a strong 210-225 pound PG that uses his strength

Why though
He was a rookie this last year not a lot of rookies start. Plus he fell because he only played a few games in college since he was hurt
Overhyped white boy
I have a women’s hoops stunted growth…Zia Cooke..viral in HS then goes to SC does great wins a chip then drafted lottery only to be a bench player so far averaging 3.5 pts & only 9 mins a game.
Hmm, interesting would like to see him try that.
seems like she’s being a rookie not everyone is good off rip

@@eastside3135 it still takes time tho lol it’s not easy
I dont understand why she dont start now honestly maybe rickea gone take her minutes

I don't mean to hate as I don't know him. But he's struggling in college not even against top competition. Why would the G League ir NBA be easier
He was really good in high school but didn’t do that well at Kentucky Texas Long Beach state Cali Berkeley sadly 😢😢❤
Love bro thanks for doing a video on my suggestion!
Need a Corey Sanders or Dwayne Bacon vid next
ruclips.net/video/ugMacL-UwGE/видео.htmlsi=S5eSfxXIR25t88qL
Yea Dwayne beacon
He did bacon already
Man back in those mid 2010's you couldn't tell me Corey wasn't up next goes out and balls at Rutgers as a rookie when a lot didn't think his playstyles would translate to the next level but after that it all jus kinda fell off he really could a been this generations baron davis

Idk if you have but a James Bouknight vid is a good one.
He pissed me tf off at UK
Why lol
Yea he just wasn’t good enough
its brutal how a sure fire can turn into a misfire. so many things have go right. just making the league starts a new timer on proving they belong.
More guys should aspire to be TJ McConnell. You will be a role player at the next level unless you are the .001%
It’s different in the social media generation
Are his parents not in his life? 4 schools in 5 years is irresponsible, lazy and concerning. How was nobody there who cared about to tell him to stay put and grind? That's ridiculous
Can you do a video on Justin Patton?
He reclassed to his original class
Exactly
Been watching Kentucky all of cals tenure. Devin wasn’t the problem with that team I can comfortably say that.
Dwayne beacon next
He did bacon already
T Clarke and Boston were nice !!!
Yo
Week 17 of asking for summer league goat Qyntel Woods
i think he didnt have great athleticism or size which made it harder to score versus the caliber of athletes/size of athletes; i think his passing held up, but the inconsistent shooting...limited him as a playmaker. Still very good passing..but w/out the threat of being a bucket it gets harder as a playmaker
Sean lampley! Old school cal player who gets no love
James akinjo !?
You're always talking about talent and luck. I feel like you should acknowledge spiel habit, character and willing to adapt to the game and team your playing in and on
I thought he was the real deal in 2019
Politics helped him since middle school period.. if you know you know
Politics RULE basketball all over the world, most times it goes way beyond "hard work" as people like to sell it
Corey sanders
Who???
Jesus Christ is GOD AND OUR SAVIOR!!!
Shouldn’t have reclassified
Take the mask off bruh...
He always been overrated.
He was never good
Yeah, I always felt like he was overrated. Not tall or athletic and didn't make his team that much better. Pretty much a meh point guard
To this guy going to kentucky is always stunted growth
Essentially yes, you better be an nba player already or going to Kentucky is a bad plan
I disagree, you dont have to be ready but mentally you gotta be at a different spot because they really ran that program as if it was an nba to prepare the players, if you werent ready for that you would burn out
He must be a vegan
4 schools in 5 years is a bad look 🙄 it shows inconsistency….
Facts and a lack of commitment
I forgot the name of the dude that was drafted this year and went to 3 schools in 3 years I was like hell nah of I am a gm I aint taking that player lol
Not hating he just wasn’t that good lol
I remember seeing him at Kentucky, it was a dream fit for a lot of players that like to score. Its like they were pretty much begging him to score the ball but he just didn't because he wasn't a Kentucky type of point guard fr.
So he left school a year early n ended up at school a year late that's wild
Timing is everything ❤
Sounds like the TATE MARTELL or DJ Uiagalelei of BASKETBALL😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫🤦🏽♂️
Lmao yup
0:48 what’s funny is watching his handles all I could see was Caitlin Clark’s got exact same type handles and passing touches
i played against this dude in some private runs since my cousin was on the Mater Dei team. He was very good and i did think he was league bound since his shot and passing were so high level. too bad he didnt flesh out as well as i thought but i still think he can carve out a good career.
Jesus Christ is KING!
Please do Vince Carter! Thanks
He did a beautiful game video check is videos
@@JBNikesbI thought he meant a stunted growth bro I was heating up my tortilla and said “ what?????”☠️
Vince made it bro. 😆
@@richardnyahoe8172 He should be a top 10 possibly top 5 GPOAT but he is not. He had all the physical gifts to be in the same class as a Kobe Bryant but he is not. He needs to do a stunted Growth as to why.
We need a Shake Milton feature!!
Shake Milton eating tho..
DJ Strawberry Should Be The Next Feature
Overseas
Kentucky was never a good fit for him and he should have never reclassed. He should have waited and went to a pac school. Not saying he would of been nba guy but better in college
He reminds me of a bigger Steve Nash. I wish this would’ve worked out.
He always seem like an industry plant . He was always around the top guys in his class from a young age so it seemed like he got notoriety by default . But every time I saw him play with his actual school team where he was the guy , he never played well .
TRASH! -kentucky -> Arkansas fan
This guy just wasn’t what he was made out to be from day 1. 💯
He’s never been that good
I watched him play in High School and at Kentucky. I liked his fire. He was a good player but not elite at anything. To be fair, few make it at his height and body frame unless they are explosive athletes. Trey is an exception but he has 2 elite skills. Chris Paul is an exception but he is one of the highest IQ players in league history….I actually think what kills players like Devin’s career is spending summers playing AAU ball (which glorifies the wrong things like isolation ball) instead of spending Summers improving court vision, creation skills, and learning how to make reads.

Absolutely On Point, bro
Only question they have him listed at 6’5 which makes me think he is 6’3? Trae is barely 6’1 w/ shoes. So wondering was he way over represented since you mentioned most players rarely for his size??
First mistake, leaving hs early!
Dang, I forgot about him.
similar thing happened to quade green
So crazy Tyson from Cal popped off instead of Askew.
He was good in high school but his ego was huge and his attitude was bad. That Kentucky team he was on had a lot of other dudes that just didn’t play well together.
Bro name described his career smh
He was ranked in the 20s as a guard never top 10.
I really thought he was gonna be better than Nico Mannion, I guess I was wrong. I essentially thought he was gonna be like Anthony Black, a strong 210-225 pound PG that uses his strength
Essentially Deron Williams
Nah mannion was way better he just had a health problem
My son played against his dude when he was 13 and this guy was 15 years old still in the eighth grade.... he was a loser than and a loser now
☠️ bro damn what did he do to your son to make you hate him that bad😭😭😭
@@notreallyafamousartist695 these guys cheating...double holdbacks with fathers who call in favors to their coach friends
@@HenryLouisMarvinthat’s probably why he left high school early
@@thestylemind4922 that's exactly why
Jesus Christ saves us if we accept Him😊
Jesus Christ loves us:)))
8:22 bro slashing not even looking for the ball… American basketball is being too simplified.
Timing could be a good thing or bad thing. Nobody asks for anything bad to happened to them.
