Re: Any chance Shake plays Thursday?
At the same time if Shake was planning a return for the conference tournament, wouldn't he have played the USF game to get his legs back?

Thanks for the link, hadn't seen their mock before - have they been pretty accurate in the past do you know? I hope that he goes and gets picked in the first round, would be great for SMU. I just hope it's clear and he's not on the bubble as absolute worst case would be for him to go and NOT get picked in the first round. He's younger than Semi and an extra year in school wouldn't have a huge impact on him I don't think. Whatever it takes for him to be a first round pick is obviously the best option, whether that's this year or next year.
Not sure how well they predict the picks but they are good about keeping the order up to date. They were the first mock I saw that had Luka Doncic rated top 3. I think they have Bagley too low. I just want Bagley to fall to the Mavs. These sites might have a little intel but most are just guessing.

Wonder what we do if get CBI bid? Team is short handed, and I think GU would be shut down for tournament. Jank k33eps saying there is more to say but can't due to scouting advantage. I have a feeling he was saying GU can't shoot. He passed on a lot of jumpers the last couple of weeks. Even Chargois was probably still playing through the ankle injury. The USF game was the most mobile he's looked since his injury.

Done for this season.
But I have this feeling he’ll be back next year.

Would not surprise me either way, but selfishly I would like to watch him at SMU for another year.

What a disappointing season and shake's smu career is probably over.
I miss Troy Matthews.

I personally hope he leaves.
He’s a great kid, a great ambassador to our school, I want the best for him.
That’s the NBA, not the AAC.

Agreed. The only way I want him back is if his injury lingers and he has a mediocre showing at the combine, which causes him to slip down the board into 2nd round territory. Then I think it would be good for him to come back, but outside of falling out of the 1st round he should 100% go to the NBA.
Now if for some strange reason he just wants to come back and play with his boys Jarrey and Jimmy next year I wouldn't mind that.

Re: Any chance Shake plays Thursday?
Agreed. If he is sure he's going first round, he needs to go. If there is a legitimate possibility he falls to round two, he needs to come back. Seems to be mixed opinions on that right now, but sure that will come more into focus at the combine.

I think if it's even 25% first-round/75% second-round, he should probably go... but I'm sure he has better advisers than me.
