Richard Stayman recently joined Rafael Barlowe on the Locked On NBA Big Board podcast, offering keen insights into the 2024 Portsmouth Invitational Tournament. This pivotal event has gathered 64 of the nation's finest senior college basketball players to vie for attention from NBA scouts. Stayman's expertise shines as he highlights the top prospects set to make waves on the Portsmouth court, offering fans and scouts alike a glimpse into the future stars of the game.

In Part II of the 2024 Nike Hoop Summit breakdown, Rafael and James Barlowe share their thoughts on the top performances from Team USA's 95-78 victory over the World Team. They begin by discussing Asa Newell's impressive display, highlighting his 17 points and 10 rebounds, showcasing how he outshined highly touted prospects Khaman Maluach and Ulrich Chomche. Moving on, the Barlowe Brothers analyze Cooper Flagg's standout game, where he recorded 19 points and 11 rebounds. However, despite his strong showing, doubts about Flagg's NBA potential and his billing as a potential top pick in the 2025 draft emerge from an NBA scout. In the final segment, Rafael and James turn their attention to the Rutgers duo of Dylan Harper and Ace Bailey, expressing particular concern over Bailey's shot selection. As they wrap up, James vocalizes his thoughts on Isaiah Evans' fit at Duke, pondering whether Kentucky, under new coach Mark Pope's pro-style offense, might be a better option for the talented player.
