Would it be possible to add a few players into the prospect pool?


I will fully admit, I like going a bit off the radar sometimes with my mock drafts, I've never really found a site that actually has every prospect that I include in a few years, and I think Fanspo was ridiculously close last year-- I think you guys even had Vincent Valerio-Bodon and Craig Porter Jr, only missing Enzo Shahrvin if I remember correctly?? None of whom were actually drafted anyways.

But that's a digression! Here are the guys that are in my latest big board/mock draft that don't seem to be showing up here as of yet:

-Robbie Avila, Indiana State, Sophomore (my #10 prospect) -Mark Sears, Alabama, Senior (my #15 prospect) -Jadyn/JT Toppin, New Mexico, Freshman (my #19 prospect) -Darrion Williams, Texas Tech, Sophomore (my #24 prospect) -Keshon Gilbert, Iowa State, Junior (my #30 prospect) -Hansen Yang, Qingdao (Chinese CBA), 2005 born (my #38 prospect) -Jaedon LeDee, San Diego State, Senior (my #39 prospect) -Anton Watson, Gonzaga, Senior (my #41 prospect) -N'Faly Dante, Oregon, Senior (my #44 prospect) -Tyon Grant-Foster, Grand Canyon, Senior (my #47 prospect) -Trey Townsend, Oakland, Junior (my #49 prospect) -LJ Cryer, Houston, Senior (my #53 prospect) -Riley Minix, Morehead State, Senior (my #54 prospect) -Chris Youngblood, South Florida, Senior (my #55 prospect) -Enrique Freeman, Akron, Senior (my #58 prospect)

I think some of these guys are more likely as prospects than others, I can understand why a few of these guys might not be on "the list". But I do think at least some of these guys really should be! I'm most surprised not to see Mark Sears, JT Toppin, Jaedon LeDee, and Anton Watson I think.

And I do really think people need to take Robbie Avila's NBA potential seriously-- if not for the production, for the growth. He developed a pretty sick jump shot through the course of his freshman year, but he was not Jokic-like, that all happened THIS year. I know he's still got a ways to go, I think he's probably more Kelly Olynyk than Jokic and that may always be the case, but like... Kelly Olynyk is still pretty good and Avila's ceiling is probably quite a bit higher than people seem to recognize. Just my two cents. (On that note, Hansen Yang deserves a look too.)
