Show Notes

'The Ringer’s NBA Draft Show' is back! Join J. Kyle Mann and Danny Chau as they share their experience building this year’s NBA Draft Guide, from their process for ranking the prospects to how they came up with the comp clouds (01:55).

Next, they discuss why they love to watch Alabama’s Labaron Philon (26:30), the huge defensive upside of Duke’s Khaman Maluach (31:40), why Georgetown’s Thomas Sorber is ranked higher (38:05), and how BYU’s Egor Demin could potentially succeed at the next level (41:57).
