Amen Thompson’s odds to go No. 3 overall have moved from +1000 to only +150 on @DKSportsbook:
Scoot Henderson = -150
Brandon Miller = +105
Amen Thompson = +150
Thompson now looks to be a serious contender to break up the long projected top three. pic.twitter.com/1vxmgYUzlk5:57 PM

Okay @Utahjazz fans, here’s your choice.
Would you rather have the 5th pick knowing Wemby, Scoot, Brandon Miller, and Amen Thompson are off the board
or…
Taylor Hendricks and the 16th pick. – 5:33 PM

This high-octane podcast episode about Marcus Smart and the fact that if he shot better from 3 he’d still be a Celtic … and what does that imply for iffy shooters in tonight’s draft like Anthony Black, Amen Thompson, and Bilal Coulibaly? link.chtbl.com/TrueHoopSocial14:40 PM

New mock draft up now shifting Scoot Henderson to the Hornets at 2 and Brandon Miller to 3. But could Amen Thompson also be in consideration for the Blazers?

Brandon Miller is a very good NBA prospect. I had him in the same tier as Amen Thompson because his NBA floor is rock-solid and think he’d be a reasonable #2 pick in most other drafts.
I just don’t believe he has the same high-end upside as Thompson. – 12:36 PM

The chatter about his stock sliding grows louder and while the recent national discourse has been Amen or Whitmore, the internal debate has shifted to Amen or Ausar, sources said. League and team sources are becoming increasingly confident the Rockets will stay the course and select Amen with the fourth overall pick should he be on the board. -via The Athletic / June 21, 2023
