I know we are still months away from the NBA Draft since March Madness hasn't even started yet. Regardless we could see a very good draft
compared with previous years. More and more white Amercian Players are being talked about with high praise. I will start off this thread with
a Kentucky Freshman Reed Sheppard who just could be a top 5 pick in the first round!

It is a bit early but checking some mocks this draft seems way better than last year. More Whites should be selected in the 1st and 2nd. Knecht, Sheppard, Buzelis, Furphy, Topic and Filipowski all could be lottery picks. Of course it’s early and some guys could still rise or fall.

Donavan Clingan is a 7'2 Monster Center who could really play. Another Big Body Type with size and skill. The Miami Heat are just
one of several teams interested in him so far.

Luka with a fourth straight triple-double… and the Mavs lose again.

I’ll say it again: Luka and Irving together on the floor make an inferior team. They are the same type of player - ball-centric.

Mavs sure could use a Grayson Allen, or a Mac McClung.

The guy who seems to be getting the biggest shaft, from what I can see, appears to be Hunter Dickinson. 7’-2” athlete who can score inside and out (stretching to hit 3s is important in the NBA), rebound and block shots sounds pretty good to me. However he’s labeled slow in scouting reports and seems to be a late 2nd round pick at best. This is Caste nonsense!

Another player to keep a close eye on is Dalton Knecht. He went off for 39 points a few nights ago!

That article was filled with quite a few backhanded compliments.

These guys just don’t respect white basketball players
It's deadspin. Nothing ever written there should be taken seriously.. and the author is an Alphabet type who rails against the NFL be too pro White.. flush it.

Knecht and Sheppard may be the first American white men to be drafted in the top 10 and Dead spin is pissed!! “Role players”.
Lol meanwhile we hear them bitch every spring there aren’t enough American Negro baseball players. Anti White America for you.

This latest 2024 Mock NBA Draft has 5 white guys in the top 8 picks of the first round. Even if 5 white guys to in the top 10 that would be epic! I know it's early but I can't remember this white heavy a draft this high in the first round in decades. Wow this would be so great if it happens!

I love the optimism, but I see 5 of 11, not 5 of 8 here.

I don’t follow the NBA closely at all but it’s absurd that Lebron James son is being viewed as a draft able prospect.

Its a pathetic case of an out of control ego from LeBron. His kid sucks and has a friggin heart attack, a Year ago. Let's fast track him to the League with his connects and a willing media anyways though.

He averaged like 5 points per game on a bad USC team. ESPN seems to be hyping him to the gills but I don’t see it elsewhere. When I was looking through 247 sports for top college transfers, he wasn’t listed highly. I think the more objective outlets realize he’s not a great prospect at all (too short / not a great PG). I hope he keeps his name in the draft and fails to get picked. I’d rather him in the G League than in college hoops.

Contrarian viewpoint: let him get drafted high and bust out.. may assist in creating further awareness to the Caste System..

I don't think anyone, whether media or DWF, views Bronny as a serious NBA prospect. They all know this is nepotism or bait to lure Lebron into a retirement tour on the team that takes him. Any media outlet stating otherwise is just trying to create a compelling storyline.
