I'm all for dissenting opinion....but maybe present it as an opinion? For now, post on Lonnie

Hopefully if he actually had inside info, he would know how to spell their names.  Might as well call them Wilts and Shrugs.

OV @ Illinois through the weekend.

Known in some circles as visiting one giant outlet mall. I bet they took him to Applebees for dinner last night and step it up to Olive Garden tonight.

That town is a hot dumpster fire.

Living a half hour from there for 23 years takes its toll on a guy.

Wilkes nearly killed himself with a light socket today according to Twitter.

His tweet:
It was all most overs I seen the extricate come out I'm stupid

I have no idea what he is trying to say here.

I think he saw the exorcist hiding in the light socket.

Either his phone typing autocorrected or he should be at Prolific Prep!  (I kid, I kid).

Alright, gotta ask what I'm sure is a deeply stupid question, I just need some first hand observations

What is it about Wilkes' game that's special? I don't get back to Indy much anymore and I haven't seen him live since he was a Freshman. But when I watch the many, many clips of him out there what I see is: nice size. nice frame. avg length. quick off his feet but not super explosive. good lateral movement. Runs well. decent handle, but right hand dominant. Smooth scorer to maybe 18ft, but that shot can't possibly extend to the college 3pt line yet, needs to be retooled. Seems like a pretty tough kid, plays through contact. 

That's the scouting report of a really nice, 4 year high-major prospect, Not a gotta have top 15 kid in a great class. And he obviously is, because the consensus is just too strong. So help a guy out here. If one of y'all who has a really a good handle on his game can fill in the blanks for me, I would appreciate it. Cause right now, I feel a little on the ignorant side.

I think you have it pegged. Outside shooting isn't there yet. He can shoot it but not at a great clip. It's his size, dribbling ability, multifaceted game and his athleticism. Did I say his size and athleticism? His ratings did drop slightly over summer because of shooting, I think mainly. He didnt make USA team. Potential, potential, potential. Gets to rim. And potential.
