Omier enters name into NBA draft

[Bmacthe1]

That was out of nowhere (Can come back since no agent has been signed)

Well ****. Kind of holds us hostage with portal bigs.

Not retaining an agent. He’ll be back

I believe so as well. Just came out of nowhere

 

[Highline17]

No agent + keeping eligibility, good sign but he is a player we can’t afford to lose, especially this late in the process

Really hope he returns or this season could look drastically different. Loved having him on the team. Wanted 2 years

 

[anr96]

Quite the jumpscare seeing this as the first post when I opened Instagram Really hope he ends up staying.

 

[AndreiVasy88]

He's just looking for feedback. I had a feeling this would happen if Miami had a great year.

 

[Gables Canes]

No reason to panic, most likely just looking for feedback and evaluations. Wong did it twice.

 

[Mackmiller974]

****, I want him back but also hope he gets drafted. It's looking like 2023-24 could be a rebuilding year unfortunately if Omier actually enters.

Omier will need to work on a jump shot if he wants any hope of taking it to the next level. Almost certain he’s looking for feedback on where to improve. He’s far better served coming back.

Undersized big men who stand under the basket don’t last long in the NBA.

On one hand I think he's just not gonna get the feedback necessary for him to stay in the draft, he's a non shooter at like 6'7"-6'8" and a guy like him in Tshiebwe is getting mocked in the late 50s. When you're that much on the edge of getting drafted, the prospect of a fat NIL deal and the security of not getting cut while also getting to work on your game in a comfortable environment is so much more promising than fighting for a two way spot in the league.

On the other hand, if he's gone I actually think Nwoko is very ready to step up big time and start day 1, rotating with Beran and Casey as small ball 5s. At that point you also take another big in the portal and maybe even bring Aire back?

Omier is like 80% coming back though imo. All he has to do is look at how Wong came back last year and improved across the board to vault his name up draft boards. I'm sure if Omier asked Coach L to take a few threes a game he would oblige. Just needs to lock in this summer as a shooter, come back and shoot above 33% from 3 and he becomes instantly draftable.

He's not staying in or getting drafted. Go freak out about something else.

 

[AmherstCane]

I mean - **** - that was a really nicely done announcement. Perfectly said by the big man.

He’s doing exactly what he should do. Life doesn’t offer much certainty - but I think he’ll be back to chase a championship next year.

Relax

 

[Go Canes!!]

Smartly done by him.

Keeps all his bases covered.

Think he’ll be back though.

 

[mavericksouth]

Not worried.

Yeah he should be doing this. Don’t think he’ll be gone.

This is how I know some of yall don’t pay attention to the NBA draft...

Miller is projected as maybe a 2nd rounder; Omier’s draft evaluation would be as a G-Leaguer at best, he would not be drafted.

And it's not like he's not making money at Miami. He's getting an evaluation and coming back to school.
