There is no way he is ready or will be drafted

The list of impact guards under 6 feet is short.

Donovan Mitchell
Trae Young
Darius Garland

It gets pretty sparse after that. That’s not to say he can’t be, but nobody is mistaking him for those three.

A few more historically

And maybe I'm missing some, but ...

Spud Webb
Muggsy Bogues
Charlie Criss
Nate Robinson
Calvin Murphy

Nate Archibald was listed (in the NBA) as 6'1", and his nickname was Tiny.

None of those guys are under 6 feet either *

Posted heights for all levels of basketball are rarely

accurate. In high school we had a guy that was listed at 6'6"...his hair was that tall, he was 6'3" at best. I went to the Big 12 basketball final between Oklahoma State and Texas Tech in Kansas City back in 2005, John Lucas III, son of John Lucas II, was the point guard for OSU and was listed at 5'11" on the program. I am 6'2", Lucas III walked right by me after the game and I was shocked at how much shorter he was than me...had to be around 5'8" at the tallest. Some guys are measured bare foot, some with shoes on and some request they be listed at a certain height or their coach does it for them. That said, if you can play, you can play.

6’1” and under?

Point being, he’d be a unicorn.

5’11 & 166 lbs. That’s pretty darn small by NBA standards.

I hope he’s just using this as an opportunity to feedback on his game. And I would guess he’s shorter than 5’11.

I'm 5'11. Having stood next to him twice, swear I'm taller *

Blake Wesley was listed as 6’5 at ND.Now he’s 6’3 in the NBA

I don’t think he shrunk.

You mean colleges fudge heights and weights?

I’m shocked.

How does he stack up to where Wesley was?

While his body may not NBA-ready, seems to me he played at that level or better didn’t he?

He stacks up short by a good 7 inches. *

Blake's ceiling is/was far higher

Due to height and length alone. Blake is a better athlete on top of that. While Burton might be the better college player, the NBA drafts on pro potential, not college performance. They're not even close in those terms.

Wesley does one thing well, run and dribble real fast

towards the basket. He's a 20% 3 point shooter and won't be in the league very long doing that.Also, Wesley is on a horrible team and doesn't play a lot. Burton can carve out a longer career if he improves his outside shot just a bit. He has a mid-range game and has shown he can get to the basket among the trees. I see Burton surpassing anything Wesley has or will do, just my opinion.

Wesley’s game has improved this year

He’s part of a regular rotation off the bench and seems to distributing the ball pretty well judging by his assist numbers. I think he’s fortunate to be playing for Pop.

Seems to be strictly for the eval

Even if this draft class is supposed to be historically weak.

Agree. I think he would be wise to play at least one more

year of CBB. I think that will be the feedback he receives.
