 This kid must be an Alien, Holy crap if you have never seen him. Is he coming 2016 or what lets get him Danny.

If You want to see just one play of how ridiculously long and athletic he is watch 1:20 seconds in, Ive never seen anyone dunk quite like that, And he's 7 feet without shoes, and he could shoot from 30 feet,

He looks like a good prospect . I love the quick passes . Has elite athleticism, and a good handle

I'm wondering if Garnett travelled to Sudan after his rookie season.  :)

I really hope you're right and that the pick will be up there, but the East is going to suck again next year, and I think Brooklyn will still suck a little less, especially if they actually get something for D-Will.  Won't be a playoff team, but unlikely to be at the top of the draft, either.

I think the following season is when they really drop and that we're switching picks with them in 2017.

Haha..I have been following this kid for awhile now and he is a Garnett clone. other videos out there show his jumper and he has the exact same release as KG.   I think there has not been a lock like this as a superstar since Durant.  Parker, Wiggins etc will not come close to what Thon Maker will be.
A winner is someone who recognizes his God-given talents, works his tail off to develop them into skills, and uses these skills to accomplish his goals.

Push yourself again and again. Don't give an inch until the final buzzer sounds.

He won't be NBA draft eligible until 2017, unless there is a rule change before then.  He still has to play a year of college after HS.

There is actually a lot of talk about him reclassifying to be eligible for 2016 draft. Between Thon and Ben Simmons i think 2016 is when Celtics draft their foundational star of the future.

We should still stink by 2016/17.  Actually, we probably should just keep tanking until LeBron James Jr hits the draft

Wow that kid actually looks really good. His style of play is kinda similar to his dad.

Why is he, as a PG, a foot taller than anyone else on the floor?
