James Bouknight UConn 2020-21 Season Highlights | 18.7 PPG 5.7 RPG 44.7 FG%, Pure Scorer!  

Got a lot of Zach LaVine in him. Such a smooth athlete, makes it look effortless.

Headed to charlotte im glad we got to hear eric collins call him a little in college

This kid is gonna be a star in the League. Jamal Murray/Zach Lavine type of player.

2:30 still one of the craziest finishes I‘ve seen

He is loaded with potential. I like his shooting potential a lot. He has some cleaning up to do to his form, mainly making sure his base is consistent (releasing on the way up and maybe jumping a little more forward and having his feet land more parallel). He gets a great quick dip and hip alignment, which helps him shoot from all different angles. His athleticism is ELITE, and he is crafty as hell around the basket. Obviously he will have to get stronger, but I think a team should take him in the top 10 easily. He will need a good coaching staff to help him develop and hone in his shot selection, but he would be the PERFECT 6th man with the potential to be a secondary scorer on a good team. He’s one of the most exciting prospects in the class.

he and jalen move alike. this is gonna be a quality draft class.

There is so much depth in this draft class.

Okc thunder!! Prestige see this kids talent 🙈🙉🌱

Put this guy in an Okc Thunder uniform, will be perfect next to Shai!

Reminds me of Zach Lavine 🔥

Maaaaan!!! I’d love to put him next to RJ. Barrett on the Knicks a just salivate over the potential success they could have together! And he’s from BK!! Match made in basketball heaven!!!

Gonna be a star, mark my words.. Raptors need to pick him up if he's still on the board

Future magic SG!

Funny, he literally had the same put back in the first clip tonight, vs the sixers except it was even more monsterous

This dude is really, really good. Can't wait to see him in the nba.

With the 7th overall pick the GSW select James Bouknight !

Most underrated college player

Charlotte Hornets Announcer Eric Collins with Lamelo Ball and James Bouknight on the Same team

This dude gonna be nice as hell in the league with the Hornets

Golden State 💯

Warriors pick. 👌

I really hope he goes to the Knicks

The thunder will pick him if Scottie is taken before 6 mark my words

WELCOME TO THE QUEEN CITY

One can tell Bouknight probably won't start off as box office as Cade, Jalen Green or Evan Mobley, but somewhere in his rookie season he'll be on Sportscenter top 10 highlights as the highest scoring rookie in the NBA.

Future magic

Bring him to Orlando

Perfect pick for the thunder with shai and Bouknight in the backcourt. They Could be dominant along with aleksej pokusevski (who could possibly be the best player on the team) thunders rebuild is looking solid

Hope Knicks get him and I hope he isn’t soft. (Knox,Ntilkina)

This man is lethal WTF!!

What a draft for the hornets.They might’ve won the draft, not because their picks are the most talented but because of the skill set they have. This is an example of a franchise giving the keys to their top player (lamelo)..really just drafted 2 guys that fits perfectly along side him 👏🏾 Pelicans wld never

Def I see a Zach Lavine comp. the mid range 3 and crafty and athletic. Warriors should draft at 7

Rumors he could be the warriors 7th pick 👀

future thunder legend

He Will Be A STUD In The NBA! Get Him On The Bulls!!!!!

Need him on the Knicks in Blue and Orange

Watching his highlights bc the thunder might not get Barnes at 6🥱

Bradley Beal type game,sliky smooth aggression.

If he goes to the thunder I will be the happiest man alive

Warriors are goin to get him he comin to the dubs 💪🤙team up wit splash brother steph and Klay dray Wiggins and James wisemen and James will be wit da second unit

Knicks got two picks to trade up for him 👀

This man is a future bucket 🪣

Future warrior?

Bouknight, Bucket, Book it 🔥 Bougknight is athletic but he was known in college for his shooting which makes him a very interesting player to watch this season. You will not know what you will get from him and that is hard to guard I think.

SOON TO BE GOLDEN STATE WARRIOR LETS GO DUBS

3:29 ok I'm sold. Warriors need to draft this man

He needs to be drafted at #13. Something about drafting scoring guards at 13. Kobe,Booker, Lavine, mitchell. It's a fool proof plan. Edit: I have decided to replace Herro with mitchell as I should have from the very start lol.

yo swish love the content

Cameron Thomas season is a highlight reel also his should be next 👍🏽💯

CONGRADULATIONS Patty...Tommy Dean!

Raptors needs him

Warriors might wanna pick him up lol

Steal if he goes 10 like they projecting, this kid could break out like how Tyrese hilburton did for the kings last draft. very fun player to watch.

Welcome to Charlotte!!

Who else is here because he might be drafted by GSW?

His game will definitely translate to the NBA. He's gonna be a type of player teams wish they didn't pass up on

Future Knick

This kid is talented

with the the 5th pick orlando magic select..

This dude is insanely good at finishing around the rim, shoots consistantly, good playmaker. He is gonna go to either OKC at 6 or GSW at 7 hopefully

The Knicks are looking to trade up to him, calling him a combo guard, but I see mostly a 2 here, and that's not meant to sound negative. Just don't see him moving the ball around much, and much more apt to create for himself as a slasher which is fun to watch and a bit of a throwback.

He got the most upside potential out of this class

He's gonna be a steal in the draft

Eric Collins knew Bouknight was a gem before he came to the hornets

I called GSW front office and said “for that #7 pick - bouk Night!”

Lamelo at the 1 x Bouknight at the 2 duo with miles bridges at the 3, Kai Jones at the 4 too 🔥🔥🔥#NewCore 🏆🏆🏆🏆

Gonna look good in a Warriors jersey!

Welcome to the bay~

Explosive scorer

He will be star for sure in future..he need only more playing time..

He reminds me of the athletic shooting guard on the Bulls...hmm🤔

Warriors said hi

He’s the next Courtney Lee Ong.

Welcome to Charlotte!

Welcome to the Hornets

Man why borrego doesnt use him in hornets?? Hes the 11th pick if he was on the other hell surely get atleast 15-18 mins off the bench or more. I mean he avg atleast 18ppg in summer league and Pre season. There is no reason why you cant gamble on him because he shows up before. He plays 4th quarter 1 min left in the nba or doesnt play at all. When the hornets roster is struggling he doesnt give a chance to the likes of bouknight or green who knows what they can bring. Smh

Why do so many mock drafts have him going late first round? He is lookin very very underrated. The Ringer's Kevin O Conner has Bouknight ranked 21st in his big board. Negatives include: 1) Playmaking instincts: He forces some passes that aren’t there and misses some open opportunities. And he too often kills his dribble. 2) Streaky spot-up shooter whose issues could be due to his mechanics. Has a relatively stiff shot out of stationary positions. 3) Inconsistent on-ball defender. Can Any UConn fans who watch the games regularly give the real insight on this?

He gives me that Dame Lillard feel coming out of Wagner. Cavs should highly consider moving down to take him..

This kid is nasty. Future star. I see Zach LaVine and a little bit of Brad Beal in him.

Him and Cam Thomas / Jalen Green are the best scorer in the draft

Welcome To The Warriors🤌🏾🙀

good fit for the warriors

WARRIORS HIM AND GIDDEY

who's here after charlotte got this kid? letsgo!

Going to the warriors at 7
