[外絮] Amen與Ausar Thompson雙胞胎宣布投入選秀

http://psce.pw/4wrjtc The touted twin tandem of Amen and Ausar Thompson, both projected as lottery picks, declared for the 2023 NBA Draft on Friday after spending the past two years in the Overtime Elite program. Both players are in the top 10 of the 2023 CBS Sports NBA Draft Prospect Rankings after thriving with OTE, an Atlanta-based collegiate alternative program. Amen averaged 16.4 points, 5.9 assists and 5.9 rebounds this past season in 27.5 minutes per contest while playing against other aspiring professionals in the OTE program; Ausar averaged 16.3 points, 6.1 assists and 7.1 rebounds. The duo previously played high school basketball at Pine Crest School in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, but are originally from Oakland, California. 備受期待的雙胞胎Amen與Ausar Thompson(皆被預測為樂透區)在星期五宣布在結束 Overtime Elite兩年生涯之後投入選秀。他們兩個鑒於在OTE的好表現都在CBS NBA潛力新 秀榜中排名前10。 Amen過去一季場均27.5分鐘16.4分5.9助攻5.9籃板;Ausar則場均16.3[ 6.1助攻7.1籃板。 這雙人組雖然來自加州的奧克蘭，但高中生涯卻加入了佛羅里達的Pine Crest高中。 Both players are 6-foot-7 guards. Amen is ranked No. 5 in CBS Sports' prospect rankings while Ausar is ranked No. 8. Amen went No. 5 in a mock draft from Kyle Boone earlier this week. "Both Thompson twins might be top-10 picks in this class but I slightly favor Amen over his brother, Ausar, because of his playmaking and ability to make advanced reads," Boone wrote. "He's an elite athlete who could be the initiator for an NBA offense, and players with that profile at 6-foot-6 are very, very valuable." 兩名球員皆是6呎7吋的後衛。Amen在CBS的新秀排行排第5名Ausar則是第8名。在本周稍早 Kyle Boone做的模擬選秀中，Amen第5順位就被挑走了。 Boone:「湯普森雙胞胎雖然都是這次選秀前10順位的等級但我因為Amen的組織能力與球場 解讀能力更喜歡他一點點。他有菁英級別的體能能作為NBA進攻的發動者，且他的6呎6身高 來說這是非常有價值的。」 Ausar went at No. 8 in Boone's mock draft and at No. 9 in a mock draft by Gary Parrish. "Imagine having twins and both of them developing into NBA Draft lottery picks," Parrish wrote. "His brother is considered the slightly better prospect, but the Thompson twins are similar and potentially special at the next level." Ausar則是在Boone模擬選秀的第8順位及Gary Parrish模擬選秀的第9順位。 Parrish:「想像一下你有一對雙胞胎且他們都發展成了NBA樂透新秀。雖然他的哥哥被認為 是強一點點的潛力，但湯普森雙胞胎非常的相像且在下一個層級都有特殊的潛力。」 他們有機會成為Morris兄弟以後又一對樂透區雙胞胎嗎? -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 71.232.216.168 (美國) ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/NBA/M.1682131288.A.696.html
