I don't see the appeal.

I think you would if you watched him more. He's got Lonzo like BBIQ

Fair enough, but I'm saying that Lonzo without a 3 ball isn't someone I'd want.

CMB is so polarizing even in my cabeza.

When I watch him I love him. He is super smart, takes control of games, can defend, pass, score.

But if he's 6-6 and can't shooot 3s and isn't uber athletic what is he? But also it's tough to see what he is.

So people see CMB as a center? Or PF?

Bust. Too small. Please don't draft him.

At 6'7 / 6'8 how is that even a question?
He shouldnt be playing center at all..

Lol I agree but I saw more than one scouting vid that mentioned him playing in center in some small lineups and just figured i had to ask. I like Matas at the 4 and don't really see the need for some another guy in around the basket that's not 7' ish.

Potential second round big man prospects.

Hansen Yang vs. Maxime Raynaud vs. Ryan Kalkbrenner vs. Rocco Zikarsky

Yeah count me in the "don't see the CMB" hype crowd. All I see is a less athletic, less offensively gifted, shorter Julius Randle. I do believe he's going to end up closer to 6'5-6'6 at the combine too.

I dont think the Bulls need a RB at 15.

Updated. Interesting.

Penda, Riley, Beringer all top 20.

At this point, I think I'm flipping on wanting to keep the pick. I think I'd be focusing on using it to go after a better rim protecting/rim running C or 3-D POA defender.

What do we think about Danny Wolf? Just declared and expected to be a top 20 pick. Good all around game for a 7 footer. We know AK loves his exciting whites as well. We also know his history with 7 footers who can do a bit of everything on the floor.

I wouldn’t mind him in the 12-15 range. He was previously at Yale so last year was his first season playing against high level competition. He’s a local kid as well from Glencoe and playing HS ball at Lake Forest Academy

His only appeal is as a facilitator at 7' but he turns it over to much (3.2 per game) so no thanks. Nice college player and maybe a 9th guy as a 7' who can hit the occasional 3. But not a 1st round pick.
