French – SF – 18 Yr Old – 6’6” – 230 lbs – 7’2” wingspan. Would-be youngest player in 2023 draft, Rising up draft boards. Leaning more towards him as BPA at 13th pick, in light of somewhat weak combo guard options available. Thoughts?

Victor Lite?
EDIT: Wemby isn’t even in NBA and already at 1.3m followers lol. Game 1 will have insane ticket prices.
Insane that just the other day there were people saying they’d take Rayan Rupert over this kid.
Wish we hadn’t dealt our 2nd / hoping we can somehow trade into a 2nd. Would love to head into the new season with George and then one of Coulibaly or (way deeper down the list) someone like Jaime Jaquez, Nikola Djurisic or Coleman Hawkins (love a lot about him but have concerns about his mobility/athleticism).
Yes I can see us taking him at 13 for sure. Unless Wallace drops, I see us taking him over George, Bufkin.
Don’t want him. Another project who can’t shoot. I want a guard who can create their own shot.
“BPA amongst somewhat weak combo guard at 13”
Some of the stuff y’all say to pump up the guys you want to draft is wild. The dude is still going as a late first rounder in recent mocks so unless you’re trading for Utah’s 16 + 28 pick, Bilal is an absurd reach at 13 over Smith, George, Wallace (if available), Rupert, etc.
I’m all aboard drafting him tbh
