Krysten Peek, Yahoo NBA Draft expert, was in Provo for BYU/Baylor. She was on
the Locked on Draft podcast to talk about Demin, Edgecombe, Catchings, Saunders, Wright and the atmosphere in the MC.

- Talked highly about the crowd and student section, said it's always been great when she's in Provo, is excited to see what it looks like when AJ is there

- Lots of scouts in the house, but she highlighted that the entire Jazz front office was in the MC

- Demin: she was also in person at the Cincy game, looking more confident in half court sets, spacing makes it difficult for him to shine, seeing zip on his passes and floor vision in person is even more impressive, said she talked to Dybansta last week and he asked her if Egor might come back (she says no chance whatsoever). The people who matter (NBA front offices) don't alter their opinions of Egor as much as everyone else does, they see his abilities and want to bet on those while other parts of his game come along. Host of the pod says he thinks Demin's passing effectiveness suffers when he's not being aggressive as a scoring threat, that when he's sitting back and not looking to score it makes him a much more conservative passer too.

- Catchings: KY told Peek that they've seen the ability from Catchings in practice again and again, just waiting for him to put it together in games. Pretty much nothing else on Kanon other than praising his perfect game including some tough shots.

- Saunders: Ultra-aggressive, keeps plays alive, highlighted FT shooting down the stretch, back half of 2nd round or undrafted free agent, might be good fit with certain NBA teams who value someone that plays that hard and matches the culture of the team, great chance for him to keep impressing scouts because all of the eyes Demin draws to the program. Host saying his BYU wish is for Saunders/Catchings/Demin to all come back to play with AJ and content for a natty.
