    doesn’t make much sense to me…he’s a poor man’s Alex Poythress and even Poythress knew he needed more years in school…Heck even LeBryant Nash is smart enough to get another year under his belt…I think Thomas realized that Nick King would steal his minutes if he returned

    Either way its a dumb move, he’ll get taken in the 40’s and have a tough time making a roster

    I thought he was a smart kid too.

    He shouldn’t be worried about either Young or Iverson. Neither of them are ready for a big role.

    Good luck to him. Not sure what an extra would do for his draft position. Next year’s class is deeper, and the Tigers are bringing in some more weapons.

    But, it looks like late second round for him. Though personally, I would rather have DJ Stephens of any Tigers guy coming into this draft.

    With Stephens, Adonis Thomas, plus a couple of other bigs leaving, the Tigers won’t be that big next year. Mostly wings and guards for us.

      Black, Goodwin and Nichols is a solid 3 man big rotation. They looked much better this yr when they played with 1 big anyways.

    This draft is so weak that players who otherwise wouldn’t go are leaving while they can, I have had him in the 2nd round of my mock all year. Worth the risk if you ask me, he’s had an NBA body since high school

    This sucks. He was disappointing this year but stepped up at the end of the season. He was also really versatile for Memphis because he could guard opposing big men.
