If you are looking for a team that’s going to blow some preseason expectations away, it’s the St. Bonaventure Bonnies. They have four incoming international recruits in their freshman class, and two of them, in my opinion, should be on NBA radars over the next couple of years.

The Colorado State Rams are entering a new era without star Nique Clifford or Nico Medved at the helm. In their final season before joining the Pac-12 in the Mountain West, new head coach Ali Farokhmanesh looks to keep the momentum going. open.substack.com/pub/bracketb...

Had a blast talking with Jacob about my wild journey from accounting to product operations, and of course my all-time favorite side business and hobby…coffee roasting! ☕ I was honored to be on the Pilot episode! 🙌 open.substack.com/pub/zeedroun...

There's been a lot of buzz ticking up around Steve Settle III and his draft stock lately. The 6'10 forward plays as a tall 3&D with a prolific ability from beyond the arc and a knack to disrupt on defense with his length. Check out my full report below! 👇 open.substack.com/pub/draftsta...

Miles Byrd has special potential. He's one of the best defensive wings in the NCAA and if he can develop a consistent shot, then he's a clear first round draft pick in 2026. Check out my full deep dive into what makes Byrd have such a high ceiling! 👇 open.substack.com/pub/draftsta...

Cedric Coward played just a handful of games at Washington State due to an injury, but his performance at the NBA Combine has his draft stock skyrocketing. Coward's offensive potential is out of this world. Check out my latest scouting deep dive below! 👇 draftstack.substack.com/p/cedric-cow...

Finished The Will of the Many by James Islington last night and wow...10/10! Phenomenal storytelling with twists and the ending is incredible. Glad I was late to the party so I only have to wait a few months for the second book!

Andor is over

Are traditional big men making a comeback? Vladislav Goldin is looking to follow a recent trend and take his skills to the fast-paced and shooter-centric NBA. A prolific defender and scorer in the paint, I believe he'll find a home in the draft. Check out my full breakdown!👇

UC Santa Barbara is loading up in the portal with a top five recruiting class from the transfer portal for non-power conference schools. Could they sit on top of the Big West next season? www.bracketbustershoops.com/p/gauchos-ge...

I love the potential that Jaron Pierre Jr. has. He's one of the most athletic players I've seen in person since watching Ja Morant. He'll be a HUGE sneaky pickup in the 2026 Draft. He can shoot, he can fly, he can rebound. Check out my deep dive below! 👇 open.substack.com/pub/draftsta...

Super crafty guard with a tremendous ability to score!

Check out my latest deepdive into one of the most underrated point guards in the country! Augustus Marciulionis has been one of the driving cogs for Saint Mary's that has led them to an incredible season. With some further shooting improvements, he'll be a steal open.substack.com/pub/draftsta...

Evansville is 2-0 since this post.

Where does Evansville even go from here? You have all of the momentum going forward from last season, yet we squander it. We are top 50 in the country in 3pt attempts, yet bottom half in 3pt percentage. Something has to change...this is embarrassing.
