Nice win for UCLA on the road. Ball really has great court vision and handles. Good athlete with great length for a point. UCLA's ball movement was outstanding until late in the game when both teams were clearly tiring. Draft Express has a nice piece out on his impact on the team: http://www.draftexpress.com/article/Lonzo-Ball-Transforming-UCLA-5727/.Leaf and Holiday both impressed off the bench for UCLA. Fox looked like the best player for Kentucky, and Adebayo was certainly a beast inside. Adebayo also shot well from the line which will be big for a player with his skillset.

Coming in as a freshman and taking charge of an experienced team says a lot for his maturity and leadership. Fox is on his way to becoming my favorite (not best) player in this draft. Just needs to develop his jump shot. Adebayo has looked better each time I've seen him. For someone so large, to be able to step out on the perimeter and defend so well is very impressive.
Looks like Tatum is back from injury today. He is currently playing.

Used his length to change shots around the rim, exhibited a back to the basket game, and was grabbing O-Reb. He really looks like the game changing talent that we need in the frontcourt to make us a dangerous team. Definitely can't wait to see more!!
Draft Express has a couple good videos up on Ball and Fox from yesterday's game.http://www.draftexpress.com/article/Matchup-Video-Lonzo-Ball-vs-Kentucky-5730/http://www.draftexpress.com/article/Matchup-Video-DeAaron-Fox-vs-UCLA-5729/Does anyone else find it impossible to listen to these with the sound on? Just brutal music choices.

The more bigs at the top of the draft, the better for us and our pick. Right now Giles (?), Markkanen and Raab are the only ones deserving to be in the top 20. Jarrett Allen from Texas looks a long way away and I only see his stock slipping before it might go up again.Thomas Bryant is someone that could move up in the mocks. He's on now with Indiana, but I haven't been able to watch.

Next viewing is Tuesday at 9:00 on ESPN. Maybe Giles will be playing too.

Just brutal music choices.TP, 'dawg, and thanks for the vids.Ball's presence, maturity and leadership impress me as well as his skills. (I know that i've said this before)Fox's under control quickness is extremely impressive.

He has looked real solid to me in other games that I saw him.
