He entered the Transfer Portal with a no contact as well as the NBA Draft.

I think it’s a play to come back to Louisiana.

Would be a good piece but you do realize if that’s what he wanted all he had to do was enter portal with no contact. Didn’t have to enter draft too.

Yeah, but agents are there to help maximize money. That’s the world we are in.

Me too, he ain't going top 20 in the nba draft. He'll come back and get paid well in colege.

I really think Wade wants to build a team of 3 pt assassins like Bama.

I think he wants the option to come to LSU if the draft doesn't go like he wants. Thinking that's what the OP meant, just didn't say it clearly.

This is possible he comes from a very close family. It surprised many here when he went to Santa Clara. He is a good player who has a ton of upside but what I find puzzling is that wasn’t even a starter at Santa Clara. But it would great to have one of our Ponchatoula boys back in purple and gold.

NBAdraft.net has him projected #20 to the Hawks.

Cant remember the last year LSU had a great 3 point shooting team.

One mock out of many. I just don’t see him going pro yet. If he comes back and balls out for a year he could be a lotto pick imo.

McNeil, Mikka, Graves would be insane. Would have three first rounders on the squad

His older brother (Marshall Graves), was in my IB math class at U-high, very nice guy.

I saw a recent article where he is ranked the #1 available portal player. Would obviously get the recruiting ball rolling in a big way.

Shea Dixon says expect big things to start happening this week in lsu men’s bball FWIW.

Shea has not said this at all, In fact, he's been pretty radio silent all week about basketball. Last week he said that he'd expect news this week but like I said, he hasn't said anything at all this week.

You’re right, that was Saturday when he said “stay locked in, things are heating up soon for lsu”, and the subject was Haggerty and men’s basketball. My bad on the timeline… days are running together lately.

247 also posted an article Monday about this maybe being a fireworks week for LSU. I’m waiting impatiently like everyone else.
