Interesting draft where clear cut franchise players such as Williamson and, to a lesser extent, Morant, are, well, not so clear cut.
Wolves at #1? Warriors at #2, Hornets at #3?
I've seen Ball and Edwards and Wiseman projections and think that ishow the Top 3 falls.
I think a lot of trade options will be explored for teams picking 1-14.
Right now?
I see the Wolves going with Edwards, but how does GS assess their area of greatest need in the here and now or going forward, Curry is 31. Thompson is 30. Green is 29.
Hornets are PRAYING Wiseman falls to them. But I reckon Ball would prove a decent consolation prize.
From #4-through-#10 is far less clear cut.
Last year, Jaxson Hayes, Rai Hachimura, and Cam Reddish fell to 8-9-10.
As for our Knucks this year?
I agree with the Forum Consensus, that if we keep the pick, someone talented will fall to us.
My one caveat is that I hope, I pray, we do not make a reach at #8 for a PG. Rather, pick the best talent on the board. I believe there is a good chance one of talented second tier PGs will fall to us at #27.
Offensively, Deni Avdija, and Defensively, Precious Achiuwa, are of interest. But hey, what do I know?
