With the NBA Draft coming up (Thursday, June 21st, 2018) and several AAC players expected to be taken, I thought it would be fun to test everyone's prediction skills in a formal manner.

RULES

Each participant must select where up to 5 AAC players (no more) will be picked in the draft.

Participants will be scored on the accuracy of their picks (based on the pick number, not by which team the player ends up with)

Picks must be submitted by Thursday, June 21st at 5:00 pm EST in order to officially count towards the board competition.

Picks can also be edited within their post before the final deadline.

SCORING

Participants will receive...

10 points for an exact pick

5 points for a pick within one pick (either before or after) of the exact pick

3 points for a pick within 3 picks (either before or after) of the exact pick

1 point for a pick within 5 picks (either before or after) of the exact pick

17. Tulane kid
18. Cincy kid
30. SMoo kid
46. WSU kid

Hopefully this thread can pick up steam with the draft coming up in a few days.

24. Jacob Evans
29. Landry Shamet
30. Melvin Frazier
33. Shake Milton
57. Gary Clark

Well, a WSU guy is the first guy to go in the draft for the AAC.

Nice call!

I liked ...

When Jalen Brunson (Big East POY) was selected in the 2nd round, The comparison of an NBA player like him was none other than Fred Van Vleet. Complimentary words indeed.

We got Landry and Shake.

So 4 AAC players drafted. Not bad

No Larrier?!?!?!

The Mav’s stole Milton. He has the quality of an NBA player much like fellow 2nd round pick and now wealthy Will Barton (played for Tigers).

They traded Shake to the 76ers. So now both a Landry and Shake are in Philly

Thanks, the website I used did not mention the trade. The 76ers are definitely on the rise.
