Main reading

Box scores in EuroLeague · ACB · Liga Endesa; league not calibrated: market prior #22.

Freshness · CurrentDaily board snapshot: 2026-09-20 (matches the computation value by value: rank, score, consensus, Δ, sample) · 7 day(s) of history · Mocks captured: 2026-09-20 · Board computed on 2026-09-20 15:05 UTC · served from cache (38 min ago; recomputed every hour)

Why he is here

factNo NCAA model yet · Only short samples (national teams · few minutes with professionals): the rank is the market prior.

What is missing to evaluate him

  • Model not yet calibrated for this league: we have his accredited box scores (EuroLeague · ACB · Liga Endesa), but the ranking is calibrated on the NCAA only. His data is shown; no rank from another league is invented
  • His league has no equivalence in the model (calibrated on the NCAA): his box scores are shown, not scored

What would bring it to life

  • His box scores in his league: shown with their sample, even if not scored
  • The model's international calibration (proposal DRAFT INTERNATIONAL CALIBRATION V1): once it exists, his already accredited box scores get scored
  • Combine measurements (wingspan, reach, athleticism): we do not have them today
  • The mocks: captured daily; today the consensus is 2 source(s)
MovementVersus the 2026-09-13 snapshot: #26 → #25 (+1) · Evidence: Limited data → International. Market #23 → #22. · The earlier snapshot carried no board rank (pre-V3.2): recomputed with today's rule on its rows.

Potential

Categorical reading of the ceiling the accredited evidence supports. Not a score: it starts from the NCAA model (if any) or from the market prior and only moves one level with our own evidence, declared piece by piece.

Potential · HighConfidence · Low

factStarts from the market prior (#22): not enough evidence of our own to start anywhere else.Medium

  • 101 accredited minutes with professionals at age 16 (EuroLeague · ACB · Liga Endesa, 2025): a club already gives him minutes. Up one level.

Evidence moves the reading one level at most, in the direction the sum of the evidence pushes. · Confidence: Only short samples (national teams · few minutes with professionals): the rank is the market prior.

Declared limits

  • · No adjustment for age or class (the historical census lacks them): bias in favour of the productive veteran.
  • · Physical measurements and the combine are not in the model: they are shown as context.
  • · Calibrated on the NCAA only: ACB, EuroLeague and FIBA are not scored.
  • · The mocks' history starts on 2026-09-13: before that date there is none (the ingester overwrote them daily).
