Duke vs. Arizona Headlines the Weekend Watch for NBA Draft Prospects

On the latest Locked On NBA Big Board Podcast, hosts Rafael Barlowe and Leif Thulin previewed some of the top games to watch over the weekend and the prospects to keep an eye on. They kicked things off with Friday night’s marquee matchup between Duke and Arizona, highlighting key players like Cooper Flagg, Kon Knueppel, and Khaman Maluach, and what they’re looking to see from each. The discussion then shifted to VJ Edgecombe, who has struggled early this season, with Rafael and Leif debating how he might fare against Tennessee’s tough defense. JT Toppin, off to a fantastic start this year, was also identified as a player they’ll be watching closely. Other prospects discussed included Ryan Kalkbrenner, who is shooting a scorching 89% from the field and looking to sustain his hot streak, Tre Johnson, who aims to rebound from a rough shooting night against Syracuse, and Kam Jones, fresh off a triple-double performance, with the hosts analyzing his emerging playmaking skills ahead of his matchup against Georgia.Timestamps:Cooper Flagg: 3:02Maluach vs. Krivas: 12:48Kon Knueppel: 16:14VJ Edgecombe: 17:20JT Toppin: 19:57Ryan Kalkbrenner: 21:53Tre Johnson: 26:11Kam Jones: 27:49 Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
