Als geplagter Pistons Fan ist es wieder an der Zeit sich mit vielversprechendem Nachwuchs auseinander zu setzen.
Die Draftklasse soll ja ziemlich schwach sein at-the-top, gibt keinen klaren Toppick.
Kein Wemby weit und breit in Sicht aber Givony hat 3 Franzosen in seiner Top 6 momentan, angeführt von Alex Sarr - Mobley und Chet werden als Vergleich angeführt.

As a result, the steady Alex Sarr is now No. 1 in ESPN's top 25 rankings. The 7-foot-1 big has continued to improve for Perth this season in the NBL after initially moving up draft boards following his two-game outing against the G League Ignite in September.
One prospect making a jump of nearly 20 spots to crack the top 15 is Purdue's Zach Edey, the reigning national player of the year. Edey returned to school for his senior season, and his game has found another gear against some of the top teams in college basketball.
Conference play is here, so these rankings -- complied by NBA draft expert Jonathan Givony, with Jeremy Woo assisting in providing analysis -- will change as we inch closer to June's 2024 NBA draft.
Check back all season as we inform you of the risers and fallers of this unpredictable draft class.

EDITOR'S PICKS
Sarr continues to produce for Perth, winners of nine of their past 11 games, stringing together some of his best games of the season in December. He plays a compact, efficient role as a cutter, roller and offensive rebounder, with plenty of freedom to demonstrate his versatile skill set pushing off the defensive glass and facilitating as a passer, making perimeter shots in a variety of ways, and showing his excellent footwork and soft touch as a finisher. Sarr ranks among the NBL's best shot-blockers, but he is highly switchable on the perimeter with his quick feet, long arms and outstanding mobility. Adding strength and becoming a more physical rebounder will be important, but it's difficult to nitpick his play too much considering his productivity versus high-level competition in a situation in which he's not just being spoonfed playing time. Sarr's continued improvement this season, overall consistency and outstanding NBA fit playing a similar role to the likes of Evan Mobley and Chet Holmgren makes him a safe choice currently as the potential No. 1 pick. -- Jonathan Givony
