He’s 2023 first rounder. That’s usually young enough for another team to gamble on “I can fix him”

Jericho Sims

Athletic, lengthy wing. I’ll bet someone at least gives him a look.

Looking at his 23-24 gleague stats. They look very good 18.³⁄₇.⁷⁄₁.9 1.5 stocks on ⁵¹⁄₄₂.⁵⁄₇₇ splits.

They should have stuck him down there more, but they likely had to play him out of necessity when they couldn’t sign a C because they were hard capped.

I sense a team (ie eastern conference bottom dwellar) would take him on as a 2-way.

He just did not make that leap most thought he would.

He doesn’t have an nba skill he’s probably toast

Mavs used Holmes as salary matching with a first for Gafford, so I doubt the Mavs are disappointed

The not getting completely fleeced on a transaction banner is going to hit hard.

The Kings not drafting anyone with their picks yields better results than the Kings using their picks

Looking at that draft, the late first round and entire second round looks straight up awful with the lone exception of Camara, so if there was every a good time to throw away a first that was it

He had literally zero value, the cap hit for Omax is gonna be absolutely nothing

no one wanted him and they need a roster spot to retain Exum, this isn’t too hard to understand imo

Why are you acting like you’ve ever seen Omax play lol

O-Max is not good at all.

Not as bad as the Jalen smith thing. Jones declined his team option after his rookie year n he was a top 10 pick

he’s pretty awful at the sport to be fair

He didn’t get minutes for a reason. He’s incredibly raw and hasn’t shown much to believe he will eventually be a rotation caliber player.

They’ve been shopping him around. He clearly didn’t have value.

Yeah cause omax was a great player lmao, be serious

him barely getting minutes is more on him/ his development than nico harrison

Nico is an idiot but this is just lazy, dude had no trade value and they needed to get him out of here to bring in Exum iirc

Lakers did the same with JHS. He was actually injured for 1 year but was cheeks

Pretty par for the course for a player of his caliber, regardless of where they’re picked

He’s pretty trash

luckily for mavs fans, O Max sucks

That’s crazy man …talk about not developing talent whatsoever …he got a get swooped up by somebody. Fr if Wiseman gets numerous chances, this kid deserves a chance to at least play to see what he can do.

Wiseman just pisses me off. Dude is pure trash yet gets numerous chances…if he does, this kid certainly deserves 10 mns a game at best for a handful of games.

Lol at all the people trying to defend it by saying he stinks… as if picking a guy who sucks too bad to get on the court is a proper defense.

Sounds like James Wiseman

I never understood the hype for him. He was the 5th best player on those Marquette teams, and athleticism only matters if you’re semi-cordinated

You’re right that’s all I ever saw from him, occasional dunks and a ton of falling on the floor

Not that anyone cares but he has a sister that’s the same exact way. Notre Dame player, she’s been the most athletic player on the team for 3 years now, an athletic freak as far as women’s players go. But is pretty uncoordinated, has never been able to shoot or really do anything on offense at all.

Basically, it runs in the family. It’s his destiny.

Exactly, constantly on the floor

We called him Bambi on the sub lmaooo

I was so surprised when he was getting mocked in the first round and left early.

Marquette? Deer? He’s a Buck

Bro needed to make the Antonio Gates pivot to football

Bueckers about to be traded for mold and 1 second round pick

2 first round picks and a good DT isn’t really a bag of peanuts people are really overreacting about that trade especially when u realize he’s making NBA money basically

In the NBA, any player that’s drafted outside of the lottery is kind of expected to wash out. Most lottery picks don’t even amount to anything.

I enjoyed watching him at Marquette. Seemed obvious in hindsight, though, that he would struggle to stay in the NBA.

“College Stocks” Enthusiast wins again

Thanks for Luka.

Athletic forward that can’t shoot to save his fucking life. Bobby Webster just slipped off his seat

hardy at least show value as ROLE player (shoot 3s, dribble basketball for a stretch)

omax just doesnt even have translatable and scaling nba ROLE player skill

Average defender, and an absolute zero on offense

He’s a poor man’s Jarred Vanderbilt

he’s a decent defender

He wasn’t good. He ran around like he was on fire the entire time. He always looked lost on what to do. And he can’t shoot.

he’s unironically one of those players who would be great if they could shoot

Not really
