Brady Manek was mixin' it up!

So far this year I have heard the following OU players playing in the NBA:

• Trae Young
• Brady Manek
• Kameron McGusty
• Rashard Odomes

It's just what fans do......

Dont forget McNeace.

I don't think Manek is a one and done either but its crazy that we are even talking about it. This is the same kid that all you experts said would never play at OU then the rest of you experts said would have to redshirt. I think he has opened everyones eyes. I am a believer in the kid and can't wait to watch him to continue to develop right before our eyes.

I get it, because It's been 30 years since OU recruited NBA talent on a regular basis. Manek is an athletic 6'9" kid with a beautiful shot and a quick release. That is exactly what the NBA is looking for.

Ok yes they are both 6'9 and white. I'm talking about have you seen him play? Manek has been great, and compared to last year in HS he looks completely different. However, until he takes 4 guys from Indiana State to the finals I'd pump the brakes on comparing him to Larry Legend.

I said he looks like him, not that he plays like him.

Indeed it is. Manek checks a lot of boxes. OU has multiple players with NBA potential on this team. Some people on this board have no clue what the scouts look for in the nba.

I think McNeace has a shot at making the NBA he needs to improve next year and then get picked up late and hopefully prove himself. He has not played edbball long.
