George: 16.8 ppg, 7.2 rebs/game, 3.0 assists/game, 2.2 steals/game, elite defender, 35% from three-point line
Frazier: 15.9 ppg, 5.6 rebs/game, 2.9 assists/game, 2.1 steals/game, elite defender, 38% from three-point line
College accolades really don't necessarily mean much in terms of your draft stock.

If that matches what teams are telling him then I would expect him to return to Tulane next year.gerryb323 wrote:https://www.si.com/nba/2018/04/18/nba-m ... vin-bagley

Yeah, obviously the difference between the first and second rounds in the NBA is the guaranteed contract moneyGretnaGrn wrote:If that matches what teams are telling him then I would expect him to return to Tulane next year.gerryb323 wrote:https://www.si.com/nba/2018/04/18/nba-m ... vin-bagley

Re: Would you draft Frazier in the first round?
And the rub is that there's probably 40+ guys who have been told that they'll be picked in the first round...some of them won't even get picked at all. It's almost a foregone conclusion that he's gone at this point.gerryb323 wrote:Yeah, obviously the difference between the first and second rounds in the NBA is the guaranteed contract moneyGretnaGrn wrote:If that matches what teams are telling him then I would expect him to return to Tulane next year.gerryb323 wrote:https://www.si.com/nba/2018/04/18/nba-m ... vin-bagley

Re: Would you draft Frazier in the first round?
I'm pretty sure Dunleavy is convinced he's gone as well. And why not, Frazier is looking at some serious money. Best of luck to you Melvin, loved watching you play.

Re: Would you draft Frazier in the first round?
I saw another mock draft yesterday that had him going 33rd but I forget to what team. Maybe Atlanta?

Re: Would you draft Frazier in the first round?
ran into a guy at Starbucks wearing an Angry Wave sweatshirt... turns out he's close friends with one of our assistants... Frazier stopped going to class a while ago. This was apparently a foregone conclusion that I honestly didn't want to acknowledge for obviously selfish reasons... the fact his father recently re-entered his life within the past year is probably not a coincidence, either.OGSB wrote:Melvin Frazier to sign with agent

The Athletic rates Melvin in the top 30.
"Still, Frazier will likely be a top-30 player on my board by the end of the process, simply because of positional need and versatility."

Just notice that the same article suggests that Ona Embo should return to school.

From the first day of the combine: https://twitter.com/DraftExpress/status ... 08288?s=20
Strong first day for Tulane's Melvin Frazier. Tested well. Measured freakishly (plus 9 wingspan). Made athletic plays on both ends of the floor, showing great defensive potential. Hit one nice pull-up 3, and had an awesome run-out dunk that will probably end up on Sportscenter.

Re: Would you draft Frazier in the first round?
Tulane shared a highlight package of his performance on Facebook. Not a lot of plays but he looked good in the plays he made. The aforementioned dunk was his patented windmill that we saw several times in games this past year.gerryb323 wrote:From the first day of the combine: https://twitter.com/DraftExpress/status ... 08288?s=20

Re: Would you draft Frazier in the first round?
Props for Melvin from SI at the combine. Should we change the name of this thread to "Who wouldn't take Frazier in the first round?" We'll see.
