Re: Grant Nelson NBA Draft??
I think he's got skills that would translate to the NBA but I don't think he's going to be anywhere near ready to make that jump by this coming draft. He needs to improve his strength and/or his 3-point shot or he'll be an offensive liability in the NBA.
I just hope he's still at NDSU by next fall and not somewhere like Kansas.
Re: Grant Nelson NBA Draft??
Saw that yesterday as well. I don't think he goes in the draft in 2023, that was the surprising part, they should've listed him as a 2024 prospect. It wouldn't surprise me if he goes through the draft process to get feedback and such and then returns to school like Abmas did but I doubt he leaves for the draft after this year. Just hoping his return to school is to NDSU and not a P5.

I agree he has special talent---I think biggest area needs to improve is his outside shot (3's)
Is NDSU the best place for PLAYER DEVELOPMENT or OFFENSIVE DEVELOPMENT----
I think he could play anywhere ---- I know if I was him I'd explore my options
Go through the NBA Draft process and consider a different place to play
I'd miss watching him play because its the ONLY reason I am watching this years team!!!!!
Re: Grant Nelson NBA Draft??
He is taking notice of this and will look to make a move to a stronger league. If he does wish him well.
Re: Grant Nelson NBA Draft??
Shhhh…dont let others out about him! Dont need a portal steal!
Re: Grant Nelson NBA Draft??
They said on the broadcast last night that NBA scouts were in Denver to watch him play, not sure if true or not but wouldn't be surprised. If so they saw the good and the bad, he dominated in the paint and in 1 on 1 situations but also had 3 or 4 really bad turnovers and missed both of his 3's. Talent is obviously there, thinking the advice for him would be to hone his skills for another season.

Grant Nelson is one of the most interesting prospects in the 2023 NBA Draft. He’s 6’11 but handles and moves like a guard and he’s a really good athlete as well. He’s currently averaging 16/8/2 and 2 blocks a game. He’s also shooting well shooting 51% from the field.
300k VIEWS on his Highlight Video? WHATTT??

@GhettoBaller "why he playing in a all-white league?" haha
Well if he wasn't transferring after this year, he probably will now. Can't blame him.
Re: Grant Nelson NBA Draft??
Ya going to be tough to keep him I think especially with NIL. Someone could pay him a million to come to a big time school who knows.
He needs one more year of college to improve his shooting. He needs to get that 3 point percentage up and even his free throw percentage to be a good stretch four.
