Seen a couple on Vanderbuilt games recently and I.M.O. Senior Luke Kornet has been a stand out.
Surely he will go in the draft
If not NBL teams should look at him for here.

He rated to go at 59 on Draft express, Hard for a Senior to go earlier

I said it was hard not impossible champ.
Plus if you look at how many seniors went top 20 in last 10 years not many have gone on to superstar careers.
Only 2 that i can see that have star potential other than Hield is CJ McCollum and Trevor Booker
There is a guy by the name of Lillard who was a senior and he goes alright

You said its hard for a senior to go earlier than pick 59 which is utter bullshit

Those seniors that went in the top 10 were elite college players. Kornet is a solid college player with a skill set that could suit a big in the NBA. It wouldn't surprise me if he goes late in the 2nd round with a team to take a punt on him. More likely he'll end up in Europe though or as the original poster suggested, the NBL.
Draymond Green is a good example though. if he had of been an underclassman he would've gone higher than his selection of 35, I don't think it's impossible for seniors to go high but teams tend to trend toward selecting younger and what they perceive as higher potential players earlier with the steady seniors later as they seem to have less room to grow

He has a nice 3 and good finish in the paint - 216 cms reminds me a bit of a Daniel Johnson type player

hey Bear - spot on ! Foxtel memory is close to capacity recordings some days 6 games on TV.
Kansas back as 1 - IMO this years winner will not come from a 1 seed again.
