Espn draft paul zipster4/20/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() O'Connor has him listed at 56th on his big board, but here's the thing: he worked out for the Clippers, and they really liked him, so much that Steve Kyler has him penciled in for them at 25 in his newest and admittedly-shaky-looking mock. Isaiah CousinsĪ combo guard who played alongside Buddy Heild at Oklahoma, Cousins hasn't received a ton of draft buzz-he's undrafted in Vecenie's mock, and just 53rd in DraftExpress'. He's just 19 years old and has announced that he will be joining his NBA team next season, so it makes sense that his value would be on the rise. While he's been seen as a late-first guy in most mocks, Sam Vecenie has moved him all the way up to 12(!), saying that he's hearing more early-mid teens than 20s for Zizic. The center from the Adriatic league is generating some extra buzz, likely due to the recent success of Nikola Jokic and Jusuf Nurkic coming out of the same league. He's moved up to 33rd in the DraftExpress mock (which would make him a Clipper) and 34th in CBS Sports'. Zipser, who was a no-name second round prospect that I liked when I did my first pass on scouting reports, has really emerged in the last couple of weeks, winning MVP at the Adidas Eurocamp and generating good buzz. Health issues can always tank prospects, whether they end up materializing or not, so I wouldn't be surprised to see Valentine drop-but it only takes one hopeful team in the teens to stop a slide. Previously thought of as a lottery pick, some medical concerns from a high school knee injury have him sliding down boards, sometimes into the 20s (23rd in the DraftExpress mock, 18th by Sam Vecenie for CBSSports, and 27th by Kevin O'Connor). With new mocks and reports coming out constantly, it's probably a good idea to stay on top of the rising and falling stocks of some prospects of interest. ![]()
