Ty Jerome is a super smart player, very good shooter and outstanding decision maker on the floor, high bballiq
I fear he is going to be too slow and lack too much athleticism to make a difference.
I am going to try rosy glasses and hope that he can make up for it. I have been dying to see players with a high bball iq play here for like 8 years. I was in my early 30s the last time we had a couple on the team.

Can Zylan Cheatham go undrafted and we snag him with a two-way?

Baynes could actually help us; this would just add to the disappointment.

I already feel bad for Cam Johnson. He's going to get shit on by Suns fans because everyone will compare him to whatever guy drafted later turns out to be way better than him. It's not his fault Jeff Bower has to prove to himself that he was right about Cam Johnson five years ago.

Yeah, I have nothing against Cameron Johnson. I liked him when I watched UNC. I thought he would be a great mid-second rounder.

Congratulations to him. Congratulations to the Indiana Pacers.

Bol Bol to the Bulls would have been the only thing that would have saved this draft. Alas, it didn’t happen.

Not sure how the Suns did it. They way over drafted Johnson, gave away Warren and a pick, managed to acquire more salary only to buy him out. It’s just mind blowing how many stupid moves this team can make when given the opportunity.

I'd like to see Louis King if he doesn't get drafted.

I think he is a better prospect than Cameron Johnson.

Cheatham goes undrafted. I hope we can get him as UDFA. Dort also wasn’t picked.

Dort should have stayed at ASU.

PG prospect year removed from HS; skipped college.

It's very surprising they gave him 2 years guaranteed.

From ESPN:

Pre-Draft Analysis

Lecque is a 1 percentile athlete who measured well (6-foot-4.25, 6-foot-8.25 wingspan) and showed off his shifty nature, defensive potential and springs in 5-on-5 action for spurts at the combine. He even made one lefty wrap pass out of pick-and-roll that he hasn't shown much of in the past. Lecque also was far too sped up, regularly dropping passes from Jared Harper on the perimeter while not even looking at the rim. Shooting is Lecque's clears bugaboo at this stage of his development. He wasn't overwhelmingly impressive in live action, and there are questions about his approach and just how realistic he is about his status as a prospect. But there's enough intrigue there to warrant a selection late in the draft as a flier pick with physical upside.
