Which player could sneak into the Top 3?

We all know the general consensus is Fultz, Ball, Jackson but the draft process is about to heat up. Who do you think could alter the standings in the top 3 and push one of these guys out?

Tatum

I went back and forth between Tatum and Isaac before settling on Isaac. Truthfully I don't think either will, but Isaac's upside is more likely to entice someone to reach than Tatum solid all around game IMO.

I think there is a chance both get in. It's not likely, but I wouldn't be shocked by it.
Something like this...

1)Fultz
2)Taum/Isaac
3)Isaac/Tatum
4)Jackson
5)Ball

I think Fultz and Tatum are top 3 locks. The surprise drop could be Ball if his workouts dont go well and Jackson may not go top 3 due to maturity issues and lack of real offensive skill. If thats the case, I could see Lauri Markkanen go #3, with teams hoping they are getting the next KP.

I think Monk is perfect for Philly, they are in desperate need of shooting with Simmons and Embiid as long term pieces. Athletic knock down shooters usually pan out pretty well, If Philly moves to number 3 I could see them reaching for him if lonzo/Fultz are off the board.

I think one of Smith Fox or Tatum depending on team if Fultz Ball Jackson doesn't go according to plan. Issac has high upside but its a risky pick for 3. Hard to figure out his floor. I could see the Monk to Philly if they get the 3rd pick.

I dont see philly passing on jackson at 3 if they get the lakers pick at 4 they can still get dsj monk fox if they feel like drafting a guard

I could see PHX gambling on Monk in the top 3. They can experiment with him as a PG since Booker is already a good ball handler. Monk has the ability to play off-ball, which compliments Booker really well.

That would be a worse defending backcourt then Dame and CJ

Fox. I don't think that Isaac has a shot at going top 3.
