Probably the best ball handler in the draft, a creative shot creator, and one of the best passers, Labaron could have gone late first round if he declared for the draft last year. but instead he went back to Alabama to continue to develop his shooting and get stronger, and that was a wise decision.
So far Labaron has doubled his scoring from a year ago and his efficiency numbers are way up across the board. If he keeps playing like this he will easily be considered a lock as a lottery selection come June.
Is he related to Labaron James
He’s who I would want no matter where Dallas picks. He probably ends up with OKC.
He’s the real deal. If we don’t get Mikel Brown Jr or Peterson, this is the guy I want.
College highlight in November. And we probably need more of them. Oh what a jackass Nico is.
He does not look 6’4″
I’ve been following 18 year old Kingston Flemings since the start of the season. He was projected in pre-season mocks as an early second rounder. But is now looking to be in the same range as Philon.
Houston has a couple of top 25 opponent Monday and Tuesday in the tourney in Vegas. He put up 18 in the first half against #22 Auburn last week.
Nice to know there’s a still a few good players in this range.
If getting Dybantsa or Boozer (the PF of the two) with the Mavs pick, surely a trade can be made for another first round pick and use this on Philon?
If Peterson is picked with the Mavs pick, use the other pick for Steinbach or Avdalas
Yeah maybe mavs can be great again in 4 or 5 years.
