Interesting piece by Jeremy Woo/ESPN about the training regimen of Wemby: “The man behind keeping the 7-foot-5 Victor Wembanyama healthy“

Two good reads from Jonathan Wasserman/Bleacher Report: “Updated Strengths, Weaknesses for Projected Top 2023 NBA Draft Picks“‘ and “5 Hyped 2023 NBA Draft Prospects with Serious Red Flags“

Really enjoyed this draft discussion with Ricky O’Donnell/SB Nation on the Rose Garden Report with Sean Highkin

Excellent in-depth profile on Anthony Black by Matt Norlander/CBS Sports

Interviews with Maxwell Lewis and O-Max Prosper from Bryan Kalbrosky/USA Today

It’s Draft Lottery Day and everyone is at the Combine, so no better time to dig into the updated big boards from the last few days. We have a bunch of big boards to compare including Kevin O’Connor/The Ringer, Sam Vecenie/The Athletic, Jonathan Wasserman/Bleacher Report, Tankathon, and Jonathan Givony and Jeremy Woo/ESPN (from their Best Available page on 5/15).

KOC and Givony both have Brandon Miller at #2 over Scoot, and Wasserman has Amen Thompson at #3 over Miller. As for clear trends happening across these boards, Cam Whitmore and Taylor Hendricks have moved up into the top 10, while Leonard Miller, Bilal Coulibaly, and Kobe Bufkin have moved up most boards into the top 20. Out of nowhere newcomer is Bobi Klintman from Wake Forest who will not be attending the Combine and may have a promise from someone in the 1st round.

There are some very clear opinions rounding into form in terms of which analyst prefer:

• Jarace Walker vs. Taylor Hendricks vs. Cam Whitmore
• Cason Wallace vs. Anthony Black
• Amen Thompson vs. Brandon Miller

Meanwhile, Gradey Dick still seems too low to me, in the 10-12 range.

There will be more big boards posted in the coming weeks, so make sure to check back for updates and follow me at @hoopsdistillery on Twitter for update notifications. Also, if I’m missing any big boards that you feel belong alongside the ‘All-NBA level’ draft analysts I currently include, leave a comment or DM me on Twitter.

We have three new big boards to analyze, post-March Madness, including Kevin O’Connor/The Ringer, Tankathon, and Jonathan Givony/ESPN-Draft Express (from his Best Available page on 4/5). KOC still has Brandon Miller at #2 over Scoot. He also has Taylor Hendricks way up at #8. Other than that, there’s a decent amount of agreement in the top 15.

Side note: please tweet @draftexpress if you are like me and would like a way to order Draft Express merch. My DX shirt finally wore out and I would love to replace it while supporting Jonathan.

Side note to the side note: please tweet @NBA and Adam Silver if you would like NBA Draft Combine merch to be sold in the NBA store. This is a complete no-brainer that is long overdue!

There will be more big boards posted in the coming weeks, so make sure to check back for updates and follow me at @hoopsdistillery on Twitter for update notifications.

3/21 update: Updated Top-50 from Jonathan Wasserman/Bleacher Report added.

3/18 update: New big board added from Tankathon. Enjoy March Madness!

With March Madness on the horizon we have a new batch of big boards to compare including picks from Sam Vecenie/The Athletic, Kevin O’Connor/The Ringer, and the best available from Jonathan Givony/ESPN-Draft Express. A couple notable things right off the top: O’Connor has moved Brandon Miller up to the #2 spot over Scoot, and Vecenie has Keyonte George all the way down at #16.

1/8 update: Added the top 50 from Jonathan Givony/ESPN-Draft Express. I always seem to forget that his board is updated on the fly without tweets or other alerts, as a running ‘best available’ list. Woopsy!

Christmas time has arrived, so it’s time to sit back and digest what we’ve seen far. To help us with the this exercise, we’re fortunate to (finally) have three 2023 big boards to stack up against each other. So, here’s our first big board comp of the year featuring boards from Sam Vecenie/The Athletic, Jonathan Wasserman/Bleacher Report, and Tankathon. I also added the link to Jeremy Woo/Sports Illustrated‘s big board from August which I believe was the first one posted this season.

There will be more big boards posted in the coming weeks, so make sure to check back for updates and follow me at @hoopsdistillery on Twitter for update notifications. Also, if I’m missing any big boards that you feel belong alongside the ‘All-NBA level’ draft analysts I currently include, leave a comment or DM me on Twitter.
