Author Topic: Skal down- Lee out in new NBA mock draft catmandoo Player Member # 1284 posted 02-08-2016 12:42 PM                     UK freshman Skal Labissiere fell four spots in the latest mock draft from DraftExpress.com, which also dropped Marcus Lee out of the Top 60 altogether. Labissiere is now projected as the No. 10 overall pick in this year’s NBA Draft, down from No. 6 in the previous update two weeks ago. Fellow UK freshman Jamal Murray, who moved up one spot to No. 8 overall, is now the top Wildcat on the DraftExpress.com board. Freshman Isaiah Briscoe dropped one spot to No. 32 overall, and sophomore point guard Tyler Ulis fell four spots to No. 51 overall. Junior Marcus Lee, who was No. 56 overall in the previous mock draft, is no longer projected as an NBA Draft pick this year. He’s listed as the No. 74 draft-eligible player on DraftExpress.com’s list of Top 100 prospects.

I wish for their sake and ours at UK that they were better suited to play NBA basketball but they just do not appear to have the consistency and overall skills needed to earn a living on the basketball court. Hopefully all are getting good educations at UK. I am not suprised that Skal's draft status is dropping. He has some skills but just does not know how to use them at the college level as of yet.

I thought he would get pushed around and be part time player, at best. He ended up being an all star and a major contributor on a championship team. Skal is slight of frame, like Prince, but he just doesn't rebound. I am as far from an NBA scout as you can get, but if I were, I would be most concerned about his lack rebounding and toughness, to take a chance on drafting him.

It will take him a few games to get back to normal and that is if he has healed properly. -------------------- http://www.ukfightsong.com/ Posts: 186359 | From: st. augustine florida 32092 | Registered: Mar 2001  |  IP: Logged Bama Cat Player Member # 153 posted 02-10-2016 02:58 PM                     I was hearing last night that his other knee was scoped and something done to the miniscus. Also he should be out 10-14 days. I can't confirm this but it's what I heard. I'm thinking this is about the end of Poythress' career. Time has just about run out for him.
