    Wiggins just shot 2/12 today from the field. He's the next Shabazz Muhammad, imo. Both super hyped in high school. Shabazz was hyped just as much and look where he is

    People really think Smart will bust? I've mostly heard good things about him, especially defensively.

    I'm afraid that Parker will end up being like Even Turner. A solid all around player but not a great athlete and doesn't do one thing particularily well.

    Who was Shabazz Muhammad before Shabazz Muhammad?

    Wiggins has actually been playing very well.

    Smart or Embiid. Exum probably has the least bust potential.

    Embiid is dominating the NCAA D1. Exum (not denying his extreme talent) plays in Australia. I don't follow.

    Wiggins. Fouled out today in a loss to Texas with only 7 points.. He just constantly has games where he scores like -5 points. Today he was jus shooting wide open bricks.
    He honestly reminds me of a longer Iman shumpert..

    And if any of you watch Kentucky play... You would know that if weren't for Randle, they would probably be a bubble team to make the tourney.

    He has "star" written all over him and if magic don't draft Embiid #1 then I'm almost certain now id take randle over Parker

    Having watched Exum up close multiple times I know this kid has the talent and drive to make it. A great 'anti-bust' attitude as well, very level headed I can't see any of the pressure or expectation getting to him.

    How 'up close' did you watch him? Sounds like you gave him an MRI on his brain.

    Joel Embiid is the highest risk highest reward choice imo.

    the one from Canada. seems like homeland of the busts to me.

    edit: imagine if the Cavs get the #1 pick again and they draft Wiggins and then he turns out to be a bust. will Cleveland hate Canada?

    I just can't see Embiid being a bust whatsoever unless he has injury issues like many bigs have had *knocks on wood*
