In Part 2 of James Barlowe breaking down his Big Board 1.0 on the Locked On NBA Big Board Podcast, hosts Rafael and James dive deeper into top prospects, offering detailed insights and analysis. James explains why he’s so high on Derik Queen and Noa Essengue, praising their skillsets and development trajectory. The discussion shifts to Boogie Fland, who has exceeded preseason expectations, and Joson Sanon, a rising name in draft circles. The duo also cover Ben Saraf and Nolan Traore, two international point guards experiencing a dip in stock—particularly Traore, who started the season as a projected top-five pick but now sits at number 16 on James’ board. The episode concludes with Dink Pate, who is thriving in the G League while playing for Mexico City.
