6) He's a good mentor/locker room guy

Fox no question. He was built for this team. With Buddy Buckets he'll find a good fit in there.

When was the last time we had everyone on this board agreeing on a single draft prospect?

It looks like it is an unanimous pro-Fox group here.

Fox, far and away. He would be the best player on the board and fits a big need. Could potentially be the best PG in this draft, and the other PGs have huge potential as well.

Would you guys rather end up with Tatum & Ntilikina or Fox & Anunoby/Markkanen/Justin Jackson?

:droop: I like this pool results, fans are finally on the same page, just gotta hope that he is still there with the 5th pick. If no I will be disappointed.
Celtics fan. :crazy:
We also face the Kings twice in the near future. I think it's time Yabu pays back some of that free money he's been given his entire career and bounces Fox for a nice 2 week ankle sprain.

The latter for sure, for a few reasons:

1) I like Fox's future as a prospect much more than Tatum's. As such, I think the gap between Ntilikina and Fox is larger than the gap between Tatum and the others you have listed.

2) Having a star playmaking PG in the modern NBA is much more important than a really good scoring SF.

Okay, so two primary reasons, but still.

Am I the only one who thinks it's completely nuts that people are considering Justin Jackson at 10 just because we pick D'Aaron Fox at 5? I have him as an end of the first round talent (who I probably wouldn't even take then). He's a Junior with less impressive skills and potential than so many other prospects. I don't think it's ever a good idea to reach in a draft just to fill a position and any GM with half a brain would agree. This is especially clear since we are many years off from championship contention. We need talented players with high potential and great character. Position won't matter until we're a playoff team.
