     Looks like Thon Maker is trying to get into the draft (and he technically seems eligible). 

    Where do you slot him?

     It’s still up in the air if he will actually be eligible. I think the league will fight this to try to prevent other players from taking the same route he did, especially because it kind of defeats the purpose of the whole age limit rule. It will be interesting to see how this plays out. 

    You would have to think that with his potential and combination of size, skills, athleticism some team would take a chance on him in the first round if eligible. He could even move into the top 10 with strong workouts. It’s still kind of a mystery to see how his game will translate, and he’s probably a guy that’s at least a year or 2 away from making any sort of meaningful contribution on an NBA roster.

       Then he may be ready.
