In a recent episode of the Locked On NBA Big Board Podcast, host Rafael Barlowe welcomed analyst Leif Thulin to discuss three standout players who significantly boosted their draft stock during the Elite Eight. Thulin began by expressing his long-standing belief in Thomas Haugh as a first-round talent, noting that Haugh's impressive NCAA tournament performance has garnered increased attention from NBA scouts. The conversation then shifted to Duke's Kon Knueppel, whose stellar play in the tournament addressed earlier concerns Thulin had about his game. Finally, they highlighted Knueppel's teammate, Khaman Maluach, who anchored Duke's defense and delivered a phenomenal performance in their victory over Alabama, leading Thulin to praise Maluach's tremendous upside as an NBA prospect.
