No shock to me. Good luck young man. You're going to need some to make a NBA roster IMO. Hope you do well.
Adel staying in the draft.
- Thread starter Cue Card
- Start date
Hope I’m wrong but I cannot see him making an NBA roster because he is bad at handling the ball and isn’t a great defender.
Welp, time to see who these "2 to 3 players to be added" are. Going to need them.
I would be shocked if Adel has anywhere close to the success of Donovan. I’d say his ceiling is a career like rozier. Rides pine for a few years to develop and then shows everyone what he can do if a star player goes down with injury. Terry has much more talent than Adel though IMO.
Yeah Rozier's isolation game and ability to rebound makes him an asset at the next level.
Adel does not have specified skill that separates him from the great players that play his position.
The loss of Pitino probably really hurt his draft value. Rick more than likely would have greatly improved his defensive game, perhaps made him a lockdown wing defender - we'll never know.
I suspect he'll toil in the G League a few years and then head overseas, though you never know who will have a great tryout for scouts.

Good luck to Adel. This was expected by most fans here, and I hope he has success in the pros.
I can't remember the exact numbers, but doesn't the team have scholarship reductions in place over the next few seasons? If so, might they not look to fill every scholarship for that reason?
I know the roster is very thin right now though so we need to add some players.
Mike Cunningham and Joe Cremo are two that Ik of right now. Im sure there are more. It's not necessarily closed to only grad transfers, but I'd imagine that's who we go after for the most part then hit the HS recruits hard for '19 like David Johnson, Armaan Franklin, Matthew Hurt, etc. All 3 one's to watch.
They can do it however they want but the scholly reduction is really nothing. I mean there's ways that it won't have hardly any effect. Before Pitino was canned we were going to take 5 for the '18 class...
Good luck Adel! The team will miss your production but may make up for it with better chemistry and defense.
