Here’s my thoughts on Texas guys on 2026-27 team and NBA Draft

Isaiah Johnson - 1st round in 2027 or 2028

Austin Goosby - 1st round in 2028, or outside shot 2027

Elyjah Freeman - 2nd or 1st round in 2027

David Punch - 2nd round in 2027, or 2028

Matas - 2nd round in 2027, or 2028

It goes without saying that this is a great night for Sean Miller and the Texas program.

Matas as valuable if not more than Swain this past year and can't teach 7 feet will go first round.

Going to have to show improved defensive ability this season IMO. If he’s only a drop coverage defender in the ball screen game … tough for him to go 1st

I agree with Gerry. Matas needs to show improved defensive movement, better processing on offense and defense (avoid silly fouls), more refined offensive skill to be a first rounder.

There's still quite a bit of ill-informed reporting on Swain out there. I watched some guy claim Swain couldn't handle the ball or pass, but for some reason a team can run offense through him. It's obvious these guys don't watch any film or simply don't know what they're talking about. Where do these guys come from?
