2018 Draft Pick 

Post#1 » by LakersSoul » Mon Nov 27, 2017 12:06 pm

Is it too early?

I know we dont have any 1st rounder but we still have Denver's 2nd round pick. Do you guys follow college basketball? Do you guys have any 2nd round draft suggestions? We could go Euro for a stash but I would prefer a falling draft pick (like Thomas Bryant/Jordan Bell type) or a 3/4 year college player (like Kuzma or Ojeleye type) in the early or mid second round plus possibly buying another pick. I love these picks because of what the Lakers draft team could do with it.

Denver is currently 11-8 and #6 seed (#20 and #50 picks) but I expect them to fall further to #8 or in the lottery even. If we get Denver's 40 to 50 range pick, who would you suggest?

If we are looking at PG depth, I think we could look at UCLA again.

Jaylen Hands. Some compare his explosive game to Westbrooke. Hands is on fire right now from the 3 point range too...

Another UCLA products are:

1. Aaron Holiday
2. Thomas Welsh.

1. Jrue's younger brother is another kid from UCLA, Aaron Holiday. He has been a solid 3 point shooter and this year he is starting to distribute more as he has averaged

2. As for Thomas Welsh, he has added some offense to his game and now is starting to stretch the defense with his 3 point shooting.

Damn, didn't know Holiday from UCLA is related to the other two that are currently in the NBA.

We might have 3 Holiday brothers in the NBA next year.

Up next 3 Balls and 3 Antetokounmpo's.
