Possible Aussie NBA players?

Who do you think is a "possibility" of being an NBA player, between now and 2020?

When I say 2020, I mean just before the Olympics start (or years prior)

My list:

Deng Adel
Isaac Humphries
Harry Froling
Jack White
Jock Landale
Jacob Epperson

Thoughts?

Is Glover a chance at a solid NBL/Europe career?

You're asking for players not currently in the NBA? because I'd argue that Mills, Delly, Bogut, Ingles, Exum are all a "possibility of being an NBA player, between now and 2020?"

I still rate Humphries a chance although it could be after 2020.

Bolden is not there yet but a real chance.

Broekhoff also still has a realistic chance.

Of the guys in college, Adel has the best shot IMO.

Love to see more though.

Bolden is a shoe in. Likely be at Philly in 2-3 years.

Broekhoff time is up I reckon.

Re Broekhoff time being up, many would've said the same thing about Ingles a few years back and yet here he is signing a big contract on a young team

Yes! About time Josh Green was mentioned here - will be the next big Aussie thing.

Good call on Green. Has the tools, hopefully he has the work rate to go with it.

I like Humphries as a kid, seems to have a great attitude and work ethic. In saying that, I have as much chance as joining the NBA as he does.

Agree Josh Green very capable though he is just 16 and a real shot at 2024 Olympic team.
Keep an eye on Wigness also.

Green should be on the 2018 u18 team or the 2019 u19 team.
Along with makur maker..

I think people are writing Isaac Humphries off way too early.

He is still only 19. Didn't get drafted but some 7 footers take longer to develop than others.

Great hands around the basket, good footwork and pretty good iq.

I see him developing into an Aron Baynes type.

Hopefully the Kings give him plenty of minutes this season.

is it possible there are 2 Frolings that make the NBA - Sam & Harry?

Yeah I think by "2x" he meant Froling brothers.

Adel
Green
Wigness

Any thoughts on Josh Green's older brother Jay?
Is he more likely Euro or NBL bound?

Dont count out Will McDowell-White just yet.

From what I can gather in his first 2 games for Bamberg he has gone 10/5/3 & 14/8/6

Wigness will go places, but wont get an NBA contract - i see him making big impact in NBL and Europe.

There are a few awesome Aussie girls who will get a DIV 1 college spot and possibly a shot an WNBA eventually (if not after a year or two in WNBL) Ezi Magbegor is a beast.

"Dont count out Will McDowell-White just yet.

That would be in the development squad he is not listed in the senior team for 17/18 season.

Out of the ones that aren't in college yet.

Wigness and green look the most likely to make the NBA.

Magbegor probably the only girl-WNBA.
Shelley also possible but unlikely.

WMW is not in the senior squad but he's been playing for the senior team in the pre-season.

Bolden needs to improve his 3 ball to be a chance

Bolden is a guarantee and his 3 ball is great. Shot over 40%
