Did Shake 100% sign with an agent? I know it's been speculated he did or will, but I can't seem to find actual confirmation of that anywhere. I hope he at least left his options open for now - not for our sake, but for his. This is widely regarded as a very, very strong draft - getting in the first round will be tough.

Seems like the injury really set him back. His stock had to be at it's highest coming off the WSU game at Koch.
He's in a tough spot.

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2768 ... redictions

Bleacher Report Mock Draft has him in the first round (Shake #26) so does Sam Vecenie and the Athletic (Shake at 26 and Jarrey at 43).

https://theathletic.com/290869/2018/03/ ... in-sexton/

Shake will be somewhere in the 22-40 range of the draft. He made a good decision. Once he goes to the combine and works out for teams more Mock drafts will remember him, but Scouts know who he is which is all that matters. Shake will do very well in individual workouts for teams due to his shooting ability, ball handling, and being a smart/good kid.

His stock wasn't going to improve by coming back. His ceiling is the same and his limitations aren't going to be improved much with another year in college (same with Shamet). He has enough film where scouts can see everything they want. Also, his injury isn't like an ACL so as long as there are no lingering issues no one will care that he missed last 11 or so games. Mock drafts just forget about guys when they aren't dropping 20 and think current who has been playing well and raising there stock. Shake will be back to where he was in all Mock drafts earlier in the year in the next month, just wait and see.

This draft is nowhere near as deep as last season. After the top 15 prospects in this years draft its a total crapshoot. Shake, Evans, Frazier, Shamet, etc. all could go anywhere from 20-40 and different Mock drafts have them going different places. Its going to be all about fit.

I just don't see a team taking an injured Jarrey at this point.

Let's see how actual NBA teams value him rather than some mock draft pundit.

I'm not NBA savvy enough to predict where Shake/Jarrey will go, but I'd be absolutely shocked if Jarrey managed to go only 5 spots later than Shake...

I think its a question of needs by teams drafting outside of the lottery. If there is a team that needs a starting #2 or a sixth man who can score, then Shake likely goes in the First Round. If a team is looking for depth at #2, only, then they won't burn a First Round choice on a depth player. As far a Jarray, if he goes at all it would be in the second round. Two knee surgeries and his tweener height make him less likely to get drafted. He's more of a #3 in style, but his height is more suited to a guard. So, it will be interesting to see what happens with him.

According to this, neither is signing with an agent "at this time" - http://collegebasketball.nbcsports.com/ ... aiting-on/

Widely speculated Shake was signing with an agent but I haven't been able to find anything to confirm that. I hope neither does until after the combine so they have all of their options available to them, especially with the large amount that have been declaring.

Meanwhile, I hope Harry's agent is one hell of a magician...

Would be smart for neither to sign with an agent and wait to see how things play out
