Welcome Ochai Agbaji from the future

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Why does this dude have a thread?
 
This cat will be in the 2022 draft after he completes his senior year. He’ll be the biggest thing coming out of the State of Kansas since Dean Wade.
 
He will be in play for the Cav in the 2nd round next year tho
But he will then force his way out of Cleveland since Cleveland doesn't have any exclusive night clubs and then go to Chicago and become the next Jordan/Rodman hybrid. Hooping all day and Chicago clubbing by night.
 
yeah I mean even the average Nostradumbass can predict a kid will stay in the draft after his 4th season in college,
with my luck he will decide to go to grad school smh
He can go to grad school but his four years of eligibility will be up. Grad school works if you’re a freshman redshirt.

Seriously, though, this is a classic thread. I’m now oddly fascinated to find out where the kid ends up.

Nostradumbass is nice. You should copyright that.
 
Actually NBAdraft.net has him as the #37 pick Golden State). Cavaliers have draft picks before and after that slot in the second round.

D’Ernest wasn’t even drafted. This kid is likely to get drafted.

Actually he does have 1 extra year of eligibility because of Covid. So he could go back for a fifth season if thats what he wants to do.
 
Well Well Well. Look who's averaging 27 PPG for the #3 team in the nation! Shoutout to @Ozone - your boy is getting it done!

Started out with 29 points against Michigan State and now this.

Red-hot Ochai Agbaji leads No. 3 Kansas against Stony Brook​

As a senior who moved into the Kansas starting lineup as a freshman and never left, Ochai Agbaji should be playing with some confidence.​

As a senior who moved into the Kansas starting lineup as a freshman and never left, Ochai Agbaji should be playing with some confidence.
Yet teammates can see the elevated potential the No. 3 Jayhawks (2-0) could flex if their versatile threat continues at the 27-point pace he has enjoyed heading into a matchup Thursday against Stony Brook (0-1) at Lawrence, Kan.
"He's just trusting his work. I mean, he worked really hard this offseason, and he worked really hard (in practice)," said another veteran starter, Christian Braun. "He's in the gym a lot. He's as confident as he's ever been, and it's good to see. If he's doing that all year, our ceiling gets even higher."
A first-year player for the Jayhawks chimed in.
"He knows he's the best player on the team and he's playing like that," Bobby Pettiford said.
Agbaji scored a career-high 29 points in the season opener against Michigan State and followed with 25 against Tarleton State as the Jayhawks secured their 49th straight home opening win.
"He's really playing at a high level," said Kansas coach Bill Self, who has never had a Jayhawk net more points in his first two games of a season.
Few penciled in an absolute go-to man for the Jayhawks before the season began, and it could be that Agbaji, a 14-ppg scorer last season, cools off. After all, he has only nine 20-point outputs in his career.
So far, however, Agbaji has exceled as a 3-point shooter and has beat defenders off the dribble, while also becoming a favorite recipient of alley-oop lobs.
He is the most consistent offensive threat on what could be the deepest squad Self has assembled in his 18 seasons at Kansas. Just two other players, Braun and Remy Martin, are scoring in double figures on average, though 11 players have shown enough promise to remain in the rotation.
 
Wouldn't be mad if we picked him up. But like I am saying a lot of long shooters/ wings coming out this year.. I think many seniors will be available in the second round.. This is why I think Windlers window is closing..
 
Cbssports.com just moved him up to 8th overall. Kid is shooting over 50% from 3. A 6-5 Guard who can play some D. Stop sleeping on him- no, seriously, this would be a good pick for the Cavs.
