  • Jarace Walker's combination of defensive versatility, physical attributes and offensive upside make him one of the more highly regarded prospects in the class. Questions about his shot and just what type of role he is able to be most effective in offensively are there, however he's someone worth betting on

    Well last year I correctly called my guy Ben Mathurin to the Pacers and that went extremely well. This year it's Walker. Barring some help in the lottery we might have to trade up a few picks to get him, but it's a perfect fit for the team. Our biggest issues are defense/rebounding and he helps a ton with each, all the while not hindering Turner at all. Slides right in at the 4 next to Myles and would love playing with Haliburton.

    Hes got a surprisingly extremely quick first step for a big guy. Like you said you would like to see him be more physical but also its nice to see he is comfortable taking guard and wing shots and that raises his ceiling imo. Yeah its not the greatest thing that this behemoth is reminding me of tyrese maxey on a lot of his plays, but if he can polish it and learn to incorporate it with more physical contact then his offensive potential is quite high.

  • @erikrannala5987
    @erikrannala5987 Před rokem +16

    I get Draymond Green vibes from him (in the good way). Mainly just because he processes things so well, he has great court vision and can make quick decisions because of it. The "volleyball pass" at 5:45 is a perfect example of that. He didn't have to see an open player, he already knew because of where everyone was on the court and didn't have to hesitate to turn mid-air and tip the ball the second it got to him. That ability helps so much with ball movement, defensive rotations, etc.
    If the Pistons move down in the lottery I'd love for them to draft Walker. High bball-IQ guys/"feel for the game" guys rarely bust and are pretty big assets come playoff time when thinking one step ahead of your opponent is even more valuable. He makes sense for the Pistons too because they don't need lead ball handlers, they need guys that do "all the other stuff".
    Also, great content! I rely heavily on these videos to learn about prospects and this channel is pretty much my go-to one.

    I think he'd be a really good fit in OKC in the spot that JWill occupied this year. Seems more talented on either side of the ball and can really grow into being a nice fit longterm beside Chet considering he provides secondary rim protection and can space, but Chet can also space the floor for him when he gets the ball downlow and Walker's passing in these clips really impressed me.

    @warlockmagic3416 Před rokem

    Walker should study Kwaih Leonard, Scottie Pippen and some Magic Johnson. With his hieght and wingspan these are guy's to look at. Kwaih and Scottie shot base start off similar. Except their feet meet closer together when they jump to shoot. This is where Walker needs work, his feet are too far apart in his jump shot. Trying to imitate these guy's could help him a lot. Magic wasn't a shooter, but his passing instincts and drives were phenomenal. His handles and Kwaih hesitations, movements to get to rim and his shot. Scottie Pippen had a great shot, was a lot faster than all these guy's. His drive instincts were phenomenal and had no issues getting to the rim and his dunks were awesome. Scottie has the best shot form of all these guy's as well. Often bringing his feet to more of a point before the release. Walker has a good shot form, maybe he will need to square it up a little more once he changes his feet. He has a lot of wrist and hand follow through. But his feet are often apart and he tends to fade back on his jumper. This is where he could learn a lot from Kwaih. Kwaih has an exceptional pull up midrange. From the slight bend in his left knee. Bringing his feet from apart together and his arm's square.

    I just don't see how he is a better prospect than Hendricks. I'd rather have hendricks.. better at switching and guarding guards and better shot blocker. Also better 3pt shooter. Also seems to have a higher iq seeing the shots jarace often gives up for a forced shot closer.

    • @bigfellamike1913
      @bigfellamike1913 Před rokem

      He doesn't seem to have the higher IQ at all, look at how fast Walker is making passes and reads of the defense while in the mid air. His dump offs are forward elite Hendricks IS NOT doing that. Not to mention Walker is flat-out stronger and will be able to stop himself getting backed down by guys like Draymond Green... where as Hendricks would get backed down into the first row of fans lol as he's waaaay lighter than the 245 lbs Walker is. Walkerton legit guard the three and four spot in the NBA from an IQ, wait, defensive ability, height length, awareness, tenacity perspective. He legit makes winning plays on both ends of the floor.
      That being said I'm cool with giving up some cerebral ability for the athleticism and slightly better 3 shooting of Hendricks if troy Weaver is too! They're both really great prospect at 5
