    I think fouls have only been an issue in two games.

    This. I'm sure it will be an issue again but FT's are his biggest issue right now, fouls aren't anywhere close.

    Upshaw's playing time will keep increasing. He has/had conditioning issues and Romar is taking it kind of slow with him.

    He's only going to get better. He's far exceeded even the doogliest expectations.

    At this rate, Upshaw will be a better NBA prospect than NWG.

    I think everyone agrees he's a better NBA prospect than NWG.

    FWIW, Chad Ford's latest top 100 rankings have Upshaw at like #60 and NWG unranked. I think Upshaw will move up quickly. I don't think anyone knows what to do with Goss. He was underrated coming out of HS and will almost certainly be underrated coming out of college as well.

    Goss will always be hampered by the fact he isn't elite athletically.
    Upshaw is the better prospect, but there are issues with him. Perhaps he can develop into a Deandre Jordan type.
    Excited to see what Upshaw will be in february

    There's so many possible outcomes for Upshaw's career. He could be out of basketball by May or a lottery pick in June or a hundred things in between. He's the ultimate high ceiling low floor player.

    Now we all agree. But before the season, Upshaw was nothing but rumor and questions. Whereas Goss had at least proven something on the court.

    Right now Upshaw is improving while Goss looks roughly the same.

    When is the last time Chad Ford updated those? I don't get NWG not being ranked. CJ Wilcox is a first rounder, but NWG isn't even ranked in the top 100?
