He's No Wemby: What To Expect From Alex Sarr
Vložit
- čas přidán 16. 05. 2024
- By now, you've probably heard that the NBA's 2024 draft class is ... weak, to put it mildly. But even still, there's always talent to be found, and the consensus among scouts right now is that the top talent in the 2024 class is French big man Alex Sarr. So, what will the Hawks be getting in this relatively unknown seven-footer?

#atlantahawks #nbadraft #alexsarr - Sport
Watch this draft end up being like the 2011 draft where there’s a lot of good players.
I could see that happening fr
Yea they sleep on this draft it’s some ballers fa sure
He doesn't have to Bec Wemby. All he has to be Alexandre Sarr.
Not for the hawks. They need a star not a supporting cast
@@carlocalingasan998 Ain't no star coming to Atlanta on his own volition. Either they draft on or trade for one. The Hawks are not a free agent destination and never has been.
Anthony Bennett 2.0
@@Bmatt3 bwuhahaha. That’s mean
@@Bmatt3 Okay
Only time will tell if this draft is weak or not, I remember when folks said the same thing about Edwards draft.
Exactly they need to let things play out
Not really even that class had more promise
It's not a great class, but the 2020 draft deserves a huge asterisk of no one could really scout properly with COVID protocols and no March Madness.
Scouts have been able to properly review this class and if it's still this dour, I wouldn't be surprised if they're closer to being right.
Who said that?
Nobody said nothing about Edwards draft
I think this draft class being so weak is largely due to the obvious lack of game changers among the college kids. It has nothing to do with Alex Sarr.
its just a lazy narrative made by bad youtubers this draft class is just fine
@@zacht2806no it sucks
This class has a bunch of role players. Sarr will need time to develop into a good player. He's like nerlens noel
Risacher?
@@zacht2806Some of the kids that were picked in the 20-30 range in last year's draft would have been lottery picks if they came out this year.
This may be like the 2000 class, a lot of starters & rotation players but no superstars.
10ppg in the NBL is good, the top scorers in the league only avg 20-22ppg. Plus he didn't get to much minutes with Perth
Sarr will be good in the next 3-4 years. Maybe as good as Mobley. He won’t be Bam for sure. Hawks need to decide if they want to trade this pick or trade Trae. 2 different timelines
@@carlocalingasan998so why can’t Trae and Sarr work
@@ajevans1422 Because they are on different timelines. Try to play old games of golden state warriors. There is so much lesson to be learned here
@@carlocalingasan998 when your core is over the age of 30 that is one thing but most of the core on the hawks are like 20-25. Trading the pick for Brandon Ingram is not good value, Sarr can either start or backup OO/Capela and be the eventual anchor of the team rather than be THE guy.
@@ajevans1422 I’m telling you if Hawks pick Sarr they should trade Trae because he is gone. He will walk in 2026
people hating havent seen him play lol. He's gonna be nice with ice trae
As someone who watched Sarr play every game for the Perth Wildcats… did you watch games or just highlights of him in nbl?
He was in a tough spot offensively. Anyways he’s going to be very good.
Not this year though. Hawks need to trade Trae since they are on 2 different timelines. Learn from golden state warriors
Tough to be a focal point on offence with a team run by Bryce Cotton
@@5nationsECdiamonds shine in the hands of anyone. I was watching Wemby highlights by 2021 as he cooked Rudy Gobert 1-on-1 at age 16 only.
The number 1 pick comes with heightened expectations, not for a mere role players who's limited. That's why this draft class is so bad, no standouts.
Some can defend well while been limited offensively. Some are good offensively while been cones on defense. Why Some are there by virtues of nepotism and family name(Bronny).
Sarr is an "Okay" role player, not what the Hawks need at this moment at all.
@@carlocalingasan998you know Sarr and Trae will be Pick and roll mastery - why trade him he ain’t even in his prime yet
@@PhonyPhoniPhone It’s not me. It’s Trae who wants a star that could help him carry the team. But recent news are saying GMs don’t want this pick so Hawks can’t really trade it. It’s a futile discussion
This draft will be better than people think
The funniest thing to me is that in 2k21 and 22 i would do rebuilds of teams, when this draft came around alex sarr was always projected as a late first in that game, i would always draft him no matter the position i was drafting in. Dude would always be a 90 overall by year 3 and in one rebuild i had him and vic both over 95 overall.
Its not like the hawks were one of the worst teams, we were 36-46 but just barely missed the playoffs in a weak eastern conference and now you get the no 1 pick, he doesn’t have to lead us to the top but he can def be a core foundation piece
If hawks take Sarr, they should trade Trae this season.
@@carlocalingasan998why not have both? Trae has been missing a dominant defensive big man. He never had a 7” footer
@@PhonyPhoniPhone That is a good point only the Hawks don’t have assets. Also, you have a point Hawks can’t trade number 1 pick since nobody wants it. GMs think this is just like 8th pick of last year. They won’t even trade d white from Celtics .
@@carlocalingasan998 these same GM thought AntMan was not a strong number one…time will tell though
@@PhonyPhoniPhone That is true and I’m not saying Sarr is a bust. I’m just saying Hawks won’t be able to get a star out of this pick right now because it doesn’t have trade value
The 2024 draft is equivalent to a normal draft if you remove picks #1, #2, #3, #7, #12, #16.
So the #1 picks is like a #4 pick, 2 is like 5, etc.
To the ppl bringing up 2020, it wasn't considered that weak just that the top 3 (Ant, Wiseman, LaMelo) was worse than you'd expect and after that Patrick Williams, Okoro, Okongwu, Killian, Avdija were all weak for a top 10. Guys like Haliburton, Maxey, and Bane ended up hitting, but that's somewhat rare.
this is more comparable to 2013 or 2000.
nope there were numerous articles about how the 2020 draft class was one of the worst EVER. Kevin Oconnor even dropped a piece about how it contained no star power.
@@yousufansari2748 Kevin o Connor had Killian #1 tho lmao.
My point is 2020 was only moderately weak (it was definitely considered better than 2013).
The 2024 class is very weak, definitely worse than 2020 and on par with 2013.
@@ckq that's just your opinion, and since you're not a professional draft analyst, it means very little. I'm just telling you from an objective standpoint that 2020 was spoken about the same way 2024 is being spoke about right now.
best of luck to sarr
title is mad disrespectful lmao
It's not he's his own player and should nto be compared to Wemby. Just as Wemby should not be compared to bron. They are their own players and people need to stop pushing these narratives and just let them play. Everyone complains for so many players not panning out, when in the end it is their fault for putting such high expectations on them. Let Wemby be his on Player let Sarr be Sarr.
Can we stop calling classes weak before they play? Just because scouts can’t easily project a star doesn’t make a class weak, and they shouldn’t be scouts then. I remember ppl said same abt 2020, AE was a “inefficient shot chucker”, Lamelo had hype but shot 38% fg, and the draft “fell off” after Wiseman. Now Maxey, Melo, Hali, AE, Quickley, Bane, Vassell, etc all came out of that draft.
I hope these young cats coming the draft take what y’all say to heart.
I like Sarr, think he just needs time. Might be best for Atl to trade that
He don't need to be he's going into a better situation
This vid is ASS. Stats with no context and bare bones analysis with clear lack of detail from someone who didn’t watch the games. Perth was contending so he didn’t receive consistent minutes. Offensively he was limited in his role and showed majority of his strengths when he received more freedom/play time. Talented with great length, and ELITE defense. he has a lot of potential and is gonna be very good imo.
Not to mention the audio is garbage
The perfect player the Kings need to compliment Domas. If the Hawks arent too sold, Kings should make a move
Imma look out for em
This class is so unknown and how we in the shooting 3 point era n everybody shot shakey 😂
Nerlens Noel 2.0
Sarr has a jump shot though. And willing to put the ball on the floor
@@BrentonPercy Barely a jump shot, his percentages are atrocious.
@@dontreadmyprofilepicture8817his percentages are basically the same as what wembys were in France
@@Mhollette Except the NBL is worse than EuroLeague and Sarr put up worse numbers in less minutes.
@@dontreadmyprofilepicture8817 very rare for rookies to have good shooting percentages. The shot is definitely there though. His shooting form is excellent. Nerlens did not have a shot at all
Sarr can run the floor and protect the rim. Hawks had better draft him or they will regret it!!! The kid will just keep getting better and he is very coachable!!!!
I still don’t feel like he’s the guy gloried Nerlens Noel
Any relation to Pepe Sarr, the premier league player?
He will be good...
Lots of good players in this draft. No superstar but really good players with big upside
i think that the ucon kid goes first
Hw is not that good
Sexiest skillet 😂 I’m dead
Hawks sure could use another big man.Let him back 😂up Capela play about 20mpg. He will be a big help. Let's not forget it is the last year of Capela's contract.
nah man we need change at C. Capela undersized and not effective like he was 3 years ago
Atlanta Hawks select Bronny James Jr 1st overall pick 😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂
But really...who is?
Ya bronny going too 10 😂
Funny how meria hypes Bronny during the Draft Combine. If I'm a casual fan I would've thought that Bronny was really good
It’s crazy because you can say he ain’t Wemby but what happened when you compare him to Yannis? Can dribble better already, shoot better more versatile . What if he was Yannis with a jumper and dribbling more then Wemby. I would be fine with either
He can't dribble better than Giannis yet, doesn't have the explosiveness, athleticism, speed or nearly the finishing ability. Giannis is one of the leagues best playmakers at the big position, and averaged over 30 while shooting 60%
@@eddydesir7702 lol Yannis can’t dribble man stop it . He a better dribbler and shot creater already. And hell naw he not as athletic or fast or strong explosive as Yannis…shit how many in the league are though?!I can’t think of ANY when I really think bout it. Yannis not doing between the legs dribbles and behind the back on the regular . He out the ball on the floor and you know what he doing you just can’t stop it(we’ll my boy Okongwu used to some games but def not consistently ). I wasn’t saying he better or gonna be better then Yannis that wasn’t the point I was making. Literally was comparing how people bash him for not having the skill set of Wemby who is super Versatile and letting people know it basically more ways to skin a cat. Yannis considered a top 3 players and tech he don’t have the skill set of Wemby so does that mean he ain’t a great player. People acting like Sarr has to be Wemby to be a good player and I feel he can choose either path. He is a better passer then Greek , shoot better and he is tech more versatile
.(he can guard 1-5 including all the big 5’s) and he had more skill set offensively. Ya no’s just more dominate athletic and strong right now.
@@jaylew651 Giannis not being able to dribble is a crazy statement🤣🤣 The dude literally plays point guard for his team for stretches. He is one of their best playmakers. you cant do any of that without good dribbling ability
@@eddydesir7702 he has no handles or go to moves with the rock, you gotta be a lil kid . He put the ball down and goes to the rim . Yannis can’t pass for shit. This his only year ever scratching 6 assist. He ain’t a play maker he is a space maker not hard to hit a open man when you getting doubled and tripled in the paint. He not trash he game is just a diff style it’s more athleticism and power based.
Poor shooter with limited range ? pls cite me all the teenagers 7fters who shot 4 3p FGA/36 min at 30pct in a pro league ?
how weak this draft is? just watch ESPN and its full of Bronny like he is the top prospect this year 😂😂😂
is a bad bet to take him 1
Just because he’s a top prospect that happens to be a center, does not mean he needs to be compared to Wemby
Any big with some guard skills will he compared to Wemby. Wemby has set thr benchmark for what you want a new age big to look like. Tall, athletic, mobile, dribbling skulls and the ability to hit jumpshots. It's gonna suck for everyone like him after him, but it is what it is
Stop with the Trae trade rumors. He’s staying put
This draft class is so weak and Bronny is STILL a 2nd rounder..
That’s because he’s a second rounder
@@Lab-Rat you could make the argument he should go undrafted in most years
Bruh y’all just pick bronny number 1 at this point
Bro just started watching the NBA 4 hours ago
@@huhhhhhh5225 no way watch wemby's highlights
“Destined to trade” get outta here. We’re not trading trae. We just traded 3 1st round picks for Murray, we’re not in the state to rebuild. We will probably trade Murray for some decent assets and go from there. Sarr will pair well with Trae. I’d love for us to trade this pick for a decent star but idk if we’ll actually be able to accomplish that since sarr isn’t as great as former no.1 picks
Trade the pick!!!
he had a specific role with perth hes not just a rolling big lmfao. and his comp is more like giannis, not mobley or JJJ they play nothing alike. are you sure you even watch him play? why the fuck is any random picking up the mic and sayin nonsense because it goes unchecked?
He's kinda similar to shawn kemp tbh.
Trae Young is the perfect player to pair with Sarr and the media says trade him. Y'all make no sense man.
he's literally dereck lively. just a lob guy with defense
Trae young needs some help man Atlanta might have one of the worst front offices in all of sports
could be worse. ya could be Charlotte
It clear that this guy as never watch any of Sarr's game in the NBL
Nerlens Noel lol this dude not going to be nothing but mediocre
I hate the term “experts” mostly dudes who never played
this so called expert said it's weak draft class coz they compare it last year class with wembanyama.. I'm not surprised if this draft class have more successful than last year draft l
It's not Olivier Sarr. It's Alexandre Sarr.
olivier is his brother he literally mentioned it
@@zenyth9130 It was a Harry Potter reference. "It's not LeviO-sa. It's LeviosA".
Do not draft guys #1 who can’t shoot
This guy is a rudy Gobert that can give you some offensive i would deaft him
2013 HAD BJ YOUNG
😂THE BEST BASKETBALL 🏀 PLAYER EVER
BUT THEY TOOK ANTHONY BENNETT😂
A FAKE ASS LEBRON JAMES 😂
