Episode Notes

CBS Sports' director of basketball scouting Adam Finkelstein joins Illini Inquirer's Jeremy Werner to discuss Illinois basketball's retention and highly-rated additions and Keaton Wagler's NBA Draft stock. Finkelstein discusses the importance of the Illini's retention and what Providence transfer guard Stefan Vaaks and top-50 Class of 2026 prospects Quentin Coleman and Lucas Morillo bring to the Illini. Then Finkelstein breaks down how Wagler stacks up in the 2026 NBA Draft class, Kylan Boswell's NBA chances and whether Andrej Stojakovic could make the NBA leap now.
