    Most of the people on this site already seem confused enough, that hes always placed so low in the mocks, so I’m excited to see what the site has to say about him. I’m no scout and I haven’t see anything other than highlight films but I can see he definitely looks like he has strange potential. Though it also looks like every time his feet leaves the ground his legs might shatter from landing because hes so skinny. I guess well see if this site is right I tend to agree with them. Gotta think though if he was one of those players who came out of high school back in the early 2000s that hed probably just be drafted first over all because of how bad scouting was back then lol

    Everywhere but NBADraft.net has Thon Maker mocked very High.. Aran Smith probably has the inside scoop on this kid, it wouldn’t surprise me if the kid was really 27 lol

     He’s been adding weight pretty quickly. I think he goes 1st when all is said and done.

    Sometimes I feel like international prospects has unfair advantage over US prospects as far as rankings. Porzingis was a top 5 pick, and by comparison, I believe Thon Maker is on par with him as a prospect. But because Maker has had more exposure to scouts, his weakness is magnified even more compared to international prospects such as Porzingis.

         What he/she was trying to say is that Maker is playing in High school in North America,so he’s not your typical international prospect. Just like Ben Simmons,Andrew Wiggins,Karl-Anthony Towns.

           I understand that he’s not your typical international prospect. That’s why I said "just checking". Wasn’t trying to be rude or anything, but the poster didn’t make it clear in what he said. Especially when he called him a US prospect. Was just clarifying.

        He went to high school in Virginia. Which makes him a domestic prospect, just like Loul Deng, Steve Nash, etc.

       thon looks way more athletic than porzingis. porzingis’ draft profile says he is supposed to be some elite athlete but in summer league the dude looked pretty stiff
