Smallest of considerations were made for Ngongba — I have always LOVED every prospect with a noteworthy intersection of AST + OReb + high Steals or Blocks, as these are the best "feel" metrics, and correlate heavily with outlier improvements in the NBA.
Ngongba will be a PLAYER.

First time making a declaration of any kind on 2026, but figured this tweet is as good an excuse as any to do it:
Just being exposed to stats for first time right now on Dec 27 of this class, Top 4 I'd imagine has got to clearly be -
1 - Cam
2 - Darryn
3 - AJ
4 - Caleb
@donyatesnba so give me your top 4 in this year’s draft. Regardless of hype, the 4 that by the end of their careers would be ranked properly.
Never in all my days did I think I'd see Jabari Parker yearning on the TL.
Awful passer and defender with bad conditioning who took too much usage with a bad 2P% and a 3P/FT % profile that could've gone either way... there have been a million of this exact style of bust
This was a very strong draft IMO. I caught some flack from draft twitter for the Fears love but the kid turned 19 in October, and:
Edgecombe is so incredibly good and is clearly alone in a tier there, or possibly in the tier with Coop up top. Taking a second look at why I had him as low as #4, it was truly just bad process.
You don't find ultra athletic 19yo wings with 19% AST/12% TOV and elite STL%/ORB%.
77 combined minutes total through regulation between Sengun, Adams and Capela is not quiiiiiiite ideal IMO
