We really needed to get in the lottery this year.

1-10 all look like high potential guys.

Michael Porter might actually drop to #8. A year ago kid was considered a smaller Durant.

Heat need to find a way to squire the american Ginobli. He is going to fall in the first round before 20th. People do not understand how difficult and elite it is to shoot with such accuracy with catch and shoot without dribble.

Non-lottery's really got some gem prospects too. Gimme two of Jerome Robinson, Chandler Hutchison, Melvin Frazier, Dzanan Musa, Elie Okobo or Anfernee Simons/Chimezie Metu/Milton, Shake

An investment in two top 40 picks in this draft could be huge for this daft core. Melvin Frazier and Chandler Hutchison smell like Heat players, both or one of them + a big would be great

M.Frazier had some pre-Kiwi stats last season DOM, Robinson lowkey has some Heat player on his scent too

Melton likely will be a undrafted free agent. He looked terrible at the combine.

Been a borderline first since last season and had a great season this season, I seriously doubt it but for Heat's chances, I'd hope so

Sebem daze DOM! ! !

How do we feel about Jevon? He's about 100 but he's gotta be one of the higher IQ guys in the draft on both ends




Rather Jevon in the lower 40s than Grays in 30s

I paid attention to him earlier in the year, but he didn't capture my interest. Seems like he's going to be able to play in the league, but I'm missing out on the magic that makes me think bigger and better. Has a solid BPM out of conference, but it looks like his advanced stats all took a hit with his conference games over the years. Would probably pass, unless he came into a workout and blew it up, or showed some super intangibles.

Just listened to an interview of his, and wasn't too impressed. Said the right things, but didn't stand out.

Wanna see Bagz and Donk on Kings, they should try their hand at another top5 pick. Really botched their assets last year. Justin Jackson and Harry Giles with 2 of their 3 picks last year?!? Oof

Man, Knox and SGA are both projected around 14-16.

Porter Jr canceling workouts left and right. Boys gonna fall! Maybe. Best get a lottery pick just in case. Roll the dice on this boy's body holding up.

With the draft a week away, executives are exploring the trade market with more urgency while filtering real intel versus smokescreens.

The Memphis Grizzlies have gauged the trade market on a package of Chandler Parsons and the No. 4 overall pick, league sources told The Athletic.

Parsons, who has missed 94 combined games over the past two seasons, is owed $49.2 million guaranteed over the next two seasons.

Several second-round picks are available on the trade market, including Phoenix’s two second-round picks (31 and 59) and Philadelphia’s four second-round picks (38, 39, 56 and 60). Philadelphia is open to moving their current second-round picks for future second-round picks.

Well, yeah, I'm interested. Doubt that the Grizz have much interest in whatever we're offering. They have Conley and Gasol, so have no need for Hassan or Goran. Not sure a package of TJ and JRich excites them enough to part with pick 4....

....but if it did, hello Mr Doncic.

How bout them 2nd round picks? You like anyone in that range? More realistic. Wonder if Brunson falls there? Wouldn't mind having another solid option to run the team.

If we take their mock as fact, then the top of the 2nd round is pretty damn sexy.

Just realized Jarred Vanderbilt stayed in the draft. He’s extremely raw but also very gifted. He’s a guy I would love to somehow get in Rd 2 and stash in in the gleague all season.
