My comparison for what I think Evans peak could be in the NBA has been Jimmy Butler. According to ESPN (which is most likely not accurate), Leonard has about an inch and 20 pounds on Evans. Evans is 6'6 215ish, Butler is 6'7 220. Butler's junior year he put up 15.7/6.1/2.3 on 10.3 SPG. Defensively he averaged 1.4 steals and .4 blocks per game. Evans' junior year he put up 13.0/4.7/3.1 on 10.5 SPG with 1.3 Steals and 1.0 blocks. Damn near identical numbers. Evans is a bit better 3 point shooter in college.

Is he really 6’6”? UCAlum08 spoke to him at the airport. Alum, what do u think? Or Hub or Chad?
Jimmy butler doesn’t look that tall either, but it’s so hard to gauge with everyone around them being tall.

Yeah I would say 6'6 is accurate for him. I am 6'2 and he easily had 3-4 inches on me. I am looking forward to seeing his stats from the combine tests.
 
Gonna be crazy watching the NBA Draft for UC players this year. I could get used to that.

When is the last time we had multiple guys drafted? 2000?

Yes, 2000.

However, in 2005, Maxiell was drafted #26 and Robert Whaley was drafted #51. Whaley played his senior year at NAIA Walsh University after playing his junior year at UC.

Wow I remember him but don't remember that scenario at all. Why did he transfer?

Whaley was a sketchy dude. He had some very serious accusations against him which made him go juco (he was lucky to do that), if I recall.

I remember at UC he was overweight and out of shape and let a routine knee scope completely detail his only season at UC.

Bob Whaley with a baseball bat. It's literally all I remember about him. It WAS my Freshman year.

Also I just looked at his Wiki, good lord he panned out exactly as expected.

I'm not sure where my little limerick came from but here's Robert Whaley's illustrious rap sheet (allegedly):

2001: Accused and tried of Rape of a 13 year old; mistrial
2001-02: Community College
2003: "Played" a few minutes at UC; got knee injury and was out of shape
2004-05: NAIA transfer; POY and National Title
2006: Drafted by Utah Jazz
2006: Bar fight with fans; lied to police; cut by Jazz
2007-10: Played in Dominican Republic and Iran (lol)
2010: Arrested for running a drug house. Bag of weed found in his butt.
2014: Turns life around and starts AAU team of 5th graders
2015: Arrested for burglary of a Marriott

That's a mercurial career folks. He's like the anti-Gary Clark.
 
I hope the Bulls draft Jake and trade for Lance....then everyone is back in the red and black and I can actually have an NBA team to follow.
 
Kaiser Gates hired an agent and will not return to X. That is a head scratcher

No to that because lance would take jakes playi time. Plus, I honestly can't stand lance. He is clingy to watch on the court. Go ahead with the crucifixion.
