College basketball is back, and so am I.
For anyone new: I’m Patrick, and I run Draft Detective, an independent scouting system. I grade NBA prospects on tape and write every call down, dated, before the results are in.
I didn’t post much over the off-season, but I wasn’t idle. I spent it rebuilding the grading and scouting tools, and the payoff is simple: this season I’ll spend less time on the system and a lot more on the film, so the evaluations should be sharper.
Two things I’m looking forward to. First, the new college class to dig into from opening night. Second, and this is the one I’m most curious about, a lot of the players I was writing up last season are NBA rookies now, so we get to see how those reads actually hold up. That’s the whole point: dated calls you can check, not hot takes.
Lots of basketball coming. Good to be back.
