Brady Manek has committed to OU

[sooner333]

I saw a tweet after Wednesday's game from an NBA insider saying that Manek has caught the eye of NBA scouts, especially with performances like Wednesday's. He's really good and we shouldn't assume any more that he's a 4 year player. Hopefully they keep telling him he needs to get stronger for a while.

I definitely saw some of the scouts taking notes after he drained another three.

Manek as a freshman is Frank Kaminsky as a junior!!!

right team, wrong guy. my comparison to sam dekker was pretty apt. very similar. i think scouts would love to see manek’s game without trae.

Ooooh, I like that one. I'd been kinda thinking Ryan Kelly. For the most part, I think we've just been comparing him to random white players.

Dekker is a better comp.

Dekker is a better comp.

Yeah, I actually like that comparison better also. Hadn’t thought about him. Manek’s numbers are very similar except for the 3 pt shooting.

As Brady gets more consistent, he can be better than either of these guys were. High hopes but I don’t think unrealistic.

I think next year is going to say a lot about what kind of player Manek will be @ OU, how much he improves his game especially without the looks that Trae gives him. He still reminds you that he’s a freshman with games like yesterday and he isn’t ready for a physical game yet in his career. Hoping he can make that step to be more of an Offensive weapon with the ball in his hands and of course get stronger on the boards.

He will get good looks in the NBA.

Better than Dekker or Kaminsky? Easy there.

He should not consider the NBA until his Jr year.

 

[DenverSooner]

How can you say that? I don't think he should consider the NBA until he is a first round pick. I have no clue when or if that will occur.
