Yeah. He's a 2nd rounder at best, & his perimeter shot is still suspect.  He'll go to the G league if he gets drafted & I doubt he makes the big leagues.  Tons of dudes out there with his skill set.  I didn't even mention his defense...great defenders don't have games like he did tonight.  I just call it like I see it.  We'll see over time what happens.

Cool 

Swain started the season as a fringe/late second round guy. 

He's elevated himself to being a fringe first round guy, and still ascending in scouts minds at end of SEC regular season. 

This 2026 draft is extremely deep. To even be in that first round talk from 23-30 says a lot about a player. 

Of course Swain's perimeter game is still building. That's not what he was coming out of HS. He's gone from a guy Miller wouldn't let shoot the three, to now around 35% from three for the season (and ascending from early in the season), including making contested NBA three's against SEC length defenders. Swain shot 38.2% from three in SEC play, as well. And including tonight is 37.9% from three the last 20 games of the season. 

Finished product? Hell no. But he's put it on the board in the SEC in a big way over the course of a season with more on his plate than any other player, along with freak Acuff. 

He'll play in the NBA a long time, health permitting. The only question is which year will be his last in college.

The game was Swain's third career NCAA Tournament game. In those three games he's averaging 17.0 points, 6.7 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 2.3 steals per game.
