 What's the word, y'all? See, I never come into these videos with the idea of making people upset, but it's gonna happen anytime you rank it, especially when you rank in young cores, it's gonna be a genre of people that's really upset. But I want people to realize I'm just a guy that watches basketball, these subjective opinions, and I don't know anything. So as long as you keep those things in mind, there's no way you can get upset. I am so guilty of this as well. When we talk about young players, our own young cores, we overrate them. You cannot tell me that Patrick Williams won't be an all-star for the Bulls one day. You know what I'm saying? He might never be, but in my mind, he's got that type of potential. So just keep in mind that I don't know anything. It's just my subjective opinion, and it all isn't good fun. We rank in young cores, but we can't do that until we talk about- Enjoy basketball East Sensus Drop, ladies and gentlemen. When this video is live, so is the drop, and you better get in, because again, it is extremely limited. Y'all know I've been wearing this Enjoy hat in the last couple of videos, and a lot of y'all see it, and be like, oh, I want one of those, where you can get one of those now. We got these hoodies that I like to wear in public and think if you know you know, if you're a part of the community, you might see that and be like, man, he's enjoy your basketball. But if you want everybody to know you're an enjoy your basketball, we got T-shirts that sit across the chest. Enjoy. On the back, we got a smooth, smooth logo. We also got sweatshorts to match the sweatshirt, because personally, I like wearing hoodies, and I like wearing shirts with them. And we also got socks. We've been working on this drop for a very long time, and it is extremely limited. So hit that link in the description, cop, and tweet at me, man. Let me know if you cop, bro. Let me know you're an enjoyer of basketball. I saw a lot of people say, hey, Kenny, I miss drop one. I can't wait for drop two. Drop two is now. Tune in. All right, all right, all right. So my own classification for young cores, it's pretty loose. I'm being honest with you. But there has to be some type of cuddle. Cause like the Boston Celtics are a young core, but they're not a young core when it comes to the overall service time, if we put in the NBA terms. Jason Tatum in the league forever. Jaylen Brown been in the league forever, but they're still super young. So how do I want to think about this? Forget it. We don't need no blueprint. If I think they're young, they are young. So Boston Celtics, S tier, S tier young core. Cool. All right, let's get that off. Get that done. All right, Milwaukee Bucks. So yeah, we got like Marjan, we got Mamu and we got Jordan Warra. Those will be the young players. This is not a team that's built for young talent. This is a team that is trying to compete for a championship. I mean, they're trying to do it on the side where we're like, get these players better. And this is what all championship quality teams try to do. Draft in the end of the first round or end of the second and just try to get some people and get them under the wing. And maybe in two years, you'll be a part of the rotation. And maybe Jordan Warra was actually a part of the rotation this year. Cause he got a little bit of burn. I'm putting them into D tier. It's nothing too exciting. Next we got the Brooklyn next. And I'm looking at Dayron Sharp, Cam Johnson, David Duke, Julia, Nicholas Clexton, and that's their young core. That's their young core. And I think Cam Johnson is of Cam Thomas. That gives you a lot of buckets. Nicholas Clexton is the starting center over there. He's probably not the starting center in a lot of different places across the NBA, but he's a starting center there. He probably will be a solid quality starting center one day. But for the most part, it's probably a C tier because I think that Cam Thomas can carry that low key. They're probably here, but I think Cam is going to be kind of nice. The Knicks are looking at Miles McBride, RJ Bear, Quentin Grimes, Cam Reddish, Quickly, Jericho. I mean, I'm counting Mitchell Robson, Isaiah Hartenstein, Obi Toppin. Those are, that's nine players, 24 younger. I guess I didn't really realize how young the New York Knicks really are. Dang, D Rose is the big vet over there. Brian Arte de Aquino, big vet over there. They have a really good young core over there. I think I'm putting them in the round the B tier. I think I'm thinking about it like this. In order to be S tier, you have to have multiple people that are already all stars, or multiple people that I think could become all stars. And though I just named a bunch of really, really good young role players, I don't know how many of them will be all stars one day. I think RJ will probably get there, but like who else? Who else? I think Quinn Grimes has the potential to have a big, big season. I was watching this man at Summer League, he was tearing it up. Now it is Summer League, so take it with a grain of salt, but he looked like a pro player amongst people that aren't pros. But out of that core, I could see one all star and a bunch of players that will have long NBA careers. But also there might be teams that we rank higher that only have one all star, but that one all star is like all NBA type all star. I think if RJ is gonna make an all star jump, it would be an all star, but maybe not an all NBA level. I don't know if you'll ever get there, which is fine, Knicks fans. I think it's fine if he never makes an all NBA team, but I could be wrong. Toronto Raptors have Scotty Barnes, Prestige Chouya, Gary Tritt Jr. Are we counting O.G. Annobe, who's 25 years old at this point? Are we counting 25? But I did just do it for the Boston Celtics. I'm counting O.G. Annobe. All right, so with that said, I think Scotty Barnes has the upside out of this world. He's like, he's carrying this young core. Prestige, I mentioned him on one of the people that I'm buying stock in this season. I'm probably putting him in the eights here because I think Scotty has all NBA potential. I think that's all NBA potential. Now he's got to make that potential reality one day, but I think he actually is like that. Also, Gary Tritt Jr. He's one of the best shooters in basketball. He gets hella deflections. He's really that nice. Utah Jazz are interested team right now because, well, Donovan Mitchell is 20. Okay, he's 25. Does he age out? I'm still counting him because I counted Jason Taylor and Jailer Brown. I'm counting them. So they got him. They got Malik Beasley, Jair Vanderbilt, Nikita Alexander Walker. They got Jair Butler, Walker Kessler, Johnny Jou saying, I'm putting the beats here because I don't know if Donovan Mitchell is going to be there in two months. So we'll just leave it at that and say, oh, is a part of a young core future assets? No, that's too much. That's too much. That'll be too much. We're not talking about the 17 million draft picks. They got a really good bear. That has nothing to do with it, even though that's part of the, nope, nope, nope, nope. That's just too much work. Too much work. Houston Rockies, Jabari Smith, Josh Christopher, Usman Garabu, who I really liked when he was getting drafted. Jalen Green, Alprensengun, Taitawasa, Tari Issa, Kevin Porter Jr., Kenyan Martin Jr. That's all we add. Jay Chate does a young NBA career. So maybe we add him too. That's undoubtedly an A or S tier. I don't know where to put them just yet. I'm putting an A for now because even though I think a couple of those people might have All-Star in their future, we still have to see them materialize. I think that Jalen Green's an absolute stud. The last couple months of the season, he was great. I think the stat is the last 18 games. He averaged 22 points per game on 41% shooting from three, from three, 41% shooting from three. Jabari Smith Jr., I don't really know what to expect from him just yet. Again, I only watch a couple of Summer League games, but I keep saying Tari Issa is my favorite player out of this draft class. Alprensengun was one of my favorite players out of that draft class. The same thing with Usman Garaba. So like, they have a lot, they have drafted a ton of people that I really, really like, but they also still have to materialize and they're super, super young. I like their core. I'm gonna put them in the A tier for now, but they have the potential to potentially go up. Palakins, Dyson Daniers, Kira Lewis Jr., EJ Ladeo. Sucks at Tari's ACL that early in his career. Jackson Hayes, Trey Murphy, Zion, Herb Jones, Jose Alvarado, Brandon Ingram, S tier. I don't need to explain it anymore. S tier, S tier, S tier. Zion already has all NBA potential. He was almost that already, average 28 points per game. Brandon Ingram has been an all-star already in his career. They got everything I would want in a young core, S tier. Now, a lot of the Lakers got younger this off-season, but they don't really have much of a young core. It's like T.H.T., Max Christie, Scottie Pimpin Jr., and then Austin Reefs. That doesn't, nothing about that wows me. They're going to the D tier. All right, all right, all right. I'm trying not to be biased and call me out of fire. Call me out of fire. But looking at what I'm looking at right now, the landscape that we've already built, the bulls should be around B tier. Let me explain. Daylan Terry just dropped 50 in a pro end game. It seems like everybody can do that. If you're in your NBA town, NBA town. Patrick Williams, you cannot convince me bro, and it's tough. Ayuda Sumu, elite rookie season, all rookie caliber player. Kobe White is still there. Lonzo Ball is only 24. That's our young core. It's better than Brooklyn. So I'm putting them in a B tier. Fight me, call me, call me a bias bulls fan. I gotta at least put them in B. It's my video. I'll do what I want. So the symbols, young core. They have Josh Minot, Wendell Moore. They got Anthony Edwards. Ooh, forgot that. Forgot about that. Jada McDaniels and Nasreen. I'm counting. And yeah, that's it. I gotta at least get them to the A tier because of Anthony Edwards. He's that nice by himself. Even if Jada McDaniels doesn't blossom the way to expect, even if Nasreen never becomes a good player or better than what he is right now, Anthony Edwards in himself gives them in the A tier. Portland, who are we talking about right here? Who are we talking about right here? Okay, so we got Shane Sharp, who ain't played basketball for seven years. Keon Johnson, Greg Brown, okay. Trent Wofford, Nazir Little. Anthony Simons. Anthony Simons is a good one. Anthony Simons in himself probably puts them into the B tier. Denver, Bones Highlands, Zeke Najee. I guess that's pretty much it. That's it. Bones Highlands gonna be pretty solid. I'll put them in the C tier. All right. Don't need to name O.K. Seethunder. Everybody in their roster, okay? Cool. That's an S tier. Don't need to explain. Denver, Shaggy O'Sullivan, Josh Giddy. Even if that's it, that's really, really good. But they also have like Trey Mann. They have Jaylin Williams, the one that was in the first round. They have a lot of really good young players over there. Don't need to explain it. You understand young cores. They're one of the best. Memphis, Shayk LaRavia, Kennedy Chandler, Zyra Williams, Satyal Dhamma, David Roddy, Jaren Jha, yeah. Desmond Bain still counts. It's S. It's S tier. You know that. Oh, now we get to some weird territory because we got the Dallas Mavericks who don't really have a young core really. I mean, they're one of the oldest teams in basketball if you didn't know. It's Josh Green and it's Luca. So you heard that second name? S tier. Some people have the type of gravity, man, legitimately. Some people have the type of gravity and Luca's one of those dudes. He's been an all NBA player three out of the four years of his career. He's been an all-star three out of the four years of his career. And the one year he did to make that, he was the rookie of the year. Like, what more can you ask from bro? He's super young still. It's crazy. Spurs is an interesting one, man. So they got Josh Primo, Jeremy Sohan, I still don't know how to pronounce the name yet because he didn't play in Summer League, at least the games that I went to. Blake Wesley, they got Demba Sale, Keldon Johnson still counts. Okay, the more I'm going down, it's okay. I'm liking some of the stuff. Some of the stuff. I'll probably put it more on the seats here though. I moved the Bulls down. I do think the Bulls have one thing that some of these other teams don't and that's the Lonzo Ball guy who was like the best player in the world last season. Oh, the Suns don't have anything. But then they do because McKell Bridges and Devon Booker gotta be counting his young core if that's the case, then S. We kind of just go over the flow as you can see. I'm just looking up rosters, they're looking at the young players and see how I rank them. Brandon Boston, Jason Preston, yeah. This is a team I built for young players. I like Brandon Boston and Jason Preston. Shout out to him. But come on, compared to some of the others, you understand. Golden State Warriors have some of the biggest question marks when it comes to their young core. Patrick Baldwin Jr., I'm pretty sure he heard himself before pre-season or whatever it is, Summer League. Jonathan Camiga gave us flashes. Moses Moody gave us flashes where he was actually really solid in that Dallas series. James Wiseman, we don't know anything about, really. Jordan Poole is there. I'm probably putting them on the beat here. They got some guys that could potentially make it better. But it's just so many question marks. And Detroit basketball. Jalen Durant, K. Cunningham, Jalen Ivey. I'm still counting Killian Hayes. Isaiah Stewart, Bac, Siddique Bay, Hami Diallo. OK, Ian Isaiah Livers. I'm counting you two, bro, because I still got some hope for you. For me, that's like an A tier. K. Cunningham is really nice. He's going to be a multiple-time All-Star. Jaden Ivey. I think it might take Jaden Ivey a little bit more time. But who knows? He might come out guns blazing. I'm putting them in the A tier. Sacramento Kings, Keegan Murray, Stud. Kevin Hurter, pretty nice and spurts. Off-Night, got that. OK, Deere Fox still counts. Shamezi Metu and Malik Monk. That sounds like a B tier to me. Deere Fox, Stud. Davion, Mr. Defense. I like it. Cavaliers is S tier. I mean, it's too much. They already got Deere's, Garland, Jared Allen, who are All-Stars. Every mobile is going to be an All-Star very, very soon. That's all I really need to say. I didn't even have to look at their roster. Enough of that. You know that they're S tier. 76ers are not built through youth, but they do have Tyrese Maxi. And I'm counting the Anthony Melton on top of that. It's pretty much a B ball pause, kind of nice and spurts. Tyrese Maxi is really, really good, but is Tyrese Maxi enough to carry them to the tier of these people? Probably not. I think by himself he's a C tier. It was really good because I think he's going to be an All-Star one day. But it is basically just him at this moment. Or like these other teams who have Deere Fox, who is an All-Star caliber player plus Keegan, plus Hever Hurter, plus this and that. The Warriors have pool, plus this, plus that. The Jazz have Donovan Mitchell, who's already an All-Star. And then the Knicks have eight players in the young court, when Philly only pretty much have one guarantee, like really good stun. So I'm putting them on the same tier of these guys, even though they'd probably be like a B minus, but this is the only thing we got right now. Charlotte Hornets have Lamello and Mark Williams. James Booknight, who we really don't see too much. Yeah, that's good. Lamello's that guy. Mark Williams, I don't know anything about to even to project, but Lamello's already an All-Star. Putting them in the B tier because Lamello's him. Washington Wizards have Denny Obdia, okay. Johnny Davis, Daniel Gaffer, Corey Kisper, Rihachi Moore, I'm counting all of those guys. I'll put them in the C tier. They have more than these three teams, but maybe not as much as these teams up here. So they're like a C minus probably. Orlando, Palo, France, RJ Hampton, Jalen Sucks, Cole Anthony, Wendell Carter, Chumo Kiki, Mo Bamba, Markel John Isaac. That's an A tier team to me. Miami has Nicola Jovis, Tyler Hero, Omar Yer 7, and Bam. Yeah, it's gotta be an A tier, bro. Bam's already there. Tyler Hero gives you 20 a night. That two is probably better than a lot of the two that you're getting from the B tier. So I think they gotta be A tier. Atlanta Hawks have Jalen Johnson, Sharif Cooper, do we count? I think Sharif Cooper actually got cut. So Jalen Johnson, Yaqa Kangu, Trey Young. Oh, okay. Cool. And then lastly, the Indiana Pacers who have Ajax, Benedict Mac Theron, Tyrese, Jalen Smith, Goga Badazi, if you want to count that. And I guess Chris Dorte, even though he's like two months younger than Miles Turner, that I like that a lot. Probably B tier. All right, most of this is all vibes. No real thought goes into it. That's my list. Well, that was fun. And as long as you look at it like that, it probably was fun for you too. Leave a like, hit that link in the description, man. Go ahead, cop up. Because these things will be going off the shelves, these fake shelves that we built. So I appreciate y'all that's been supporting it for all this time and I'll see you soon. Peace.
