Move 18 for 21 and 30 with DEN.

Grab two of Terry, Proceda, Moore, and a C like Koloko. I'd prefer Proceda and Terry.

I'd love to do something like this.

I'd be looking at Liddell and Terry personally.

I'd be eyeing Memphis and Denver as trade back options for sure, it seems like a pretty deep talented draft.

I like Jalen Williams a lot. Good wings are so hard to get, everyone wants them. Him and Pat can put the Bulls in a great position. Same reason I like Eason so much.

Jalen is a bit slower, but he has such a quick release to help with that. And he’d be able to help the team right away.

Is Jalen slower? His combine testing says otherwise. It looks like he intentionally plays at a more controlled pace.

Current list:

Tari Eason
Mark Williams
Jalen Duren

Jalen Williams
Malaki Branham

Ochai Agbaji
Marjon Beauchamp
Jeremy Sochan

Kendall Brown
EJ Liddle
Nikola Jovic

I don’t think the 1st 3 will be there at 18, but feel good Jalen will be.

Maybe not agile was the right term.
But more importantly than that, he has an absurd wingspan that will allow him to defend and get his shot off easily. 7.25 wingspan for a 6’5 player is nuts. Braun is 6’5 with a 6’6” wingspan.

Something that's nice about Williams' length is that he should make good use of it on offense. Him and Tony Snell have about the same amount of length, but it didn't help Snell much. Williams on the other hand seems like he has a big arsenal of sneaky in-between moves that will be aided by a long wingspan. Should help his offense stick.

I find Dieng's inclusion interesting, and Eason's exclusion interesting.

I had kind of figured Eason was a pipe dream, but if he's not in the green room it gives me more hope he might be available.

If he drops someone will trade up for him. MEM and SAS have multiple picks.

He’s been consistently mocked in our range for a couple weeks now. It’s possible that’s just how league evaluators view him.

I think that could true. I've seen him as low as 23 in one mock. His stock could be falling for some reason. I kind of like Jalen Williams better than him- more two way potential, and esp. more 3 pt shooting, which we need almost as much as we need big men. I feel like we can pick up a serviceable big man easier in free agency than we can a good wing.

If Ogbaji falls, I'd be in on him, too- another excellent shooter.

How about trading our 18 for the 20 and 38 with San Antonio. San Antonio has 4 picks.
Would love to bring in two energy guys.

The league would take pick 38 away in that scenario.

Solid list. Mine is similar. Only difference is I have Hardy or Dieng instead of Lidell though. Just my personal preference.

I know this is stupid, but I kind of want Juancho Hernangomez now. Stupid Netflix. :lol:

Eason which just on what he did on the court is top ten. But when you watch the interviews he doesn't answer the question. He struggles in comprehending the question and providing an answer. Is this enough to drop you out of lotto?

If Eason falls to the 18th pick, he would be in my top 3 choices for us, maybe #1. His combination of length, athelticism, motor, defensive instincts, ball handling ability and explosiveness would make him hard to pass up. He's definitely got some deficiencies, but he's shown massive improvement over his 2 year college career, and he's still pretty young. His free throw % went up to 80% last year, and his 3 pt shot showed a lot of improvement as well. He's also a decent passer for someone his size.

There's so much to like about his game. I think his ceiling is higher than Jalen Williams or some other players. He'd be a great defender to throw on guys like Tatum, Giannis, Butler, Durant, etc.

I haven't paid attention to this draft class at all, but we need more offensive weapons for sure.
