Both French. #1 and #2 pick in the recent drafts.

But in terms of what you saw in summer league and pre season. And ofc, their pre draft performances

Who do you think will become the better player in Nba?

Risacher or Sarr?

Explain your reasoning.

Is it close? Or a massive one sided?

    Risacher I see having a solid role player career. Sarr I see bouncing around teams and hanging around but never being a guy. Picks 3 and 4 from this draft will greatly outplay them.

    Risacher. It’s still early but Sarr has too much Bol Bol in him for me.

    Both guys are rail thin for their frames and will get bullied by many players in the league at their positions.

    Sarr has some of the poorest shooting touch I’ve ever seen on a 7 footer and he plays for the Wizards so he’s definitely got less upside. He can block shots but with his size and athleticism he should be blocking a lot more. His ceiling is probably the 4th best starter on a contender.

    Risacher has a lot of versatility and is less likely to be punished for his frame on the wing. I think he can do a lot with the ball but will have the ball less than he wants it on the Hawks this year. His ceiling is probably the 3rd best starter on a contender.

    In most other drafts these guys would have gone in the pick 10-15 range and expectations would have been in line with them being competent starters eventually. This just happened to be among the weakest draft classes of all time.

      I think they would have likely gone in the 5 -10 range. The draft had a lot of solid lottery talent, just not any superstar upside.
