It'll be interesting to see where he ends up. Atlanta may go for Hayes instead if both are available at pick 10. There is speculation that Rui may have a promise from MIN. I don't know what direction WAS is looking to go but if they do grab Hayes then Sekou seems like a solid pick for Atlanta. Brandon Clarke may also be someone teams looking at Sekou consider even though his measurements were subpar.
I don’t know where the Hayes to Washington stuff is coming from , I’ve seen it a few places now. The Wiz literally have 3 centers lol (they’re also paying Dwight and Mahinmi), and Thomas Bryant is only 21yo and showed a lot of promise.
It seems like 8-9th would be the sweet spot for Doumbouya. Washington’s interim GM (Tommy Sheppard) is heavy on international scouting and that’s the type of prospect he would target, especially for a team that’s going to be in a developmental year. If Atlanta doesn’t take Sekou at #8 then he probably goes #9.
Also heard the reports about Minnesota giving a promise to Hachimura, I could see that happening if they’re planning on moving away from Saric.
not sure how Rui Hach would be a replacement for Saric at this point, just different roles/archetypes right now.
i thinky Minny is praying Coby falls to them, after that it's probably Clarke or Rui, but I think they'd need to bring back Saric either way.
I mean, they're both mobile PFs who can start or come off the bench? Saric and Rui have different games, but the Wolves don't really use Saric in a playmaking role anyways so I think they're just looking at it as, we need another body at the 4 who will be young and cheap
