     Here is my early Top 5 for 2021 with NBA Comparison. As we know not only will order, but draft comparisons will change a few times over the year. Who is your Top 5? 

    1. Johnathan Kuminga (Antwan Jamison)
    2. Cade Cunningham (Shaun Livingston)
    3. Evan Mobley (Chris Bosh)
    4. Jalen Green (Clyde Drexler)
    5. Jalen Johnson (Shaun Livingston)

     It’s too early for me to pick a top 5…BUT I think Jalen Green will be a star and he’s going number 1.

     I think 2021 is better than 2020 at the top of the draft — but it’s early.

       Jalen Johnson reminds me of Lamar Odom. He’s a lot bigger than PG13, not as shifty.

     Makur Maker I have in the 5-25 range right now.  He reminds me of Kevin Garnett.

    Alex Antetokounmpo I have as a late first rounder right now.  He reminds me of a poor mans Giannis.

    1. Cade Cunningham – Penny Hardaway. (The best guard prospect in the glass. Checks every single box, is consistent in every tournament)
    2. Usman Garuba – Draymond Green. (The best euro prospect since Doncic, dominates every competition and is a defensive menace. Real Madrid has a PROSPECT).
    3. Jonathan Kuminga (if he reclasses) –
    4. Evan Mobley – Lamarcus Aldridge.
    5. Terrence Clarke (if he reclasses) – More athletic Caris Levert?
    6. Jalen Johnson – Lamar Odom is an easy comp. Shoots the ball better than Ben Simmons did at the same stage… so that’s a plus. Is he a PG? Does he have the defensive chops that Ben has? Still an intriguing prospect though.
    7. Jalen Green – Athleticism, impressive ball skills and scoring ability. Didn’t dominate the EYBL like I thought he would. In the u19 champions he averaged 10 PPG shooting 39 percent and 20% from 3p range. I’m lower on him than most but I do think he’ll be a starter in the league but definitely isn’t a sure thing.
    8. Ziaire Williams – What Cam Reddish was supposed to be in college. Can score from all three levels and will be a draft rider.
    9. Scottie Barnes.- Do it all wing (expect shoot). Will be a Menace in college.
    10. Makur Maker – Better than Thon at the same stage and he was a lotto pick. Can shoot it as well.
    11. Greg Brown – Kevin Knox
    Sleepers: Anton Watson (if he stays a second year), Roko Prkacin, Jaylin Williams, Azuolas Tubelis, Jaden Springer, Ziaire Williams (wouldn’t be surprised if he was a top three pick), Khalifa Diop

       Jalen Johnson is not a PG. But he does play unselfishly. He’s a Point Forward. He will play the 4 at Duke. Another multifaceted player, shoot/dribble/pass/rebound/defend.

        Jalen reminds me a lot of Jabari but a better passer and hopefully with better defense.

    Ibou Badji could be the wildcard as the classic big man from Africa prospect. He’ll be one of the younger guys in that draft year only turning 19 a few months after the draft. If he is already 230lbs then he has developing bulk to go with his size and is the sort of prospect it just needs one GM to like.

     I have Clarke in the 1-15 range.  He reminds me of Demar Derozan.

    Zhaire Williams I have in the 10-15 range.  He reminds me of Rudy Gay.

    Scottie Barnes I have in the 5-30 range. He reminds me of Jabari Parker.

    Greg Brown I have in the 5-10 range.  He reminds me of Marquese Chriss

     Just been looked at some of the Jonathan Kuminga stuff online and he looks a very good prospect. Sure there are the dunks and the athletic moves, but his hand speed impressed me, he seems unselfish and has a natural 3 point range to go with elite athleticism.

    He is a long way from being in the NBA and we’ll have to see how he does in the NCAA against bigger stronger Juniors and Seniors etc but I was impressed by him
