Wiggins still 1 for me. The Parker, Embiid, Exum, Randle, Smart, LaVine, Vonleh to round out top 8.

Jahii Carson is my other target. Doubt he makes it to 31, but would love to add him.

Talk about a tough choice that will have Earth-shaking implications down the road for this organization. Probably one of the biggest decisions all-time for the Bucks if they get the #1 pick and have to decide between Embiid, Parker and Wiggins.

I have to see more of Embiid. If there's a strong chance he can be better than Hibbert, that may be difficult to pass up.

I'm hoping this guy comes out and we can sneak him in the 2nd round.

PJ Hairston from UNC would be a great pick if hes still there in the 2nd round, Hes better then Reggie Bullock who I know alot of people liked last year. There are charterer concerns which would be the reason he would fall.

Can someone clarify how many second round picks the Bucks have this year apart from their own?

I'm amazed that Kyle Anderson isn't getting more attention - DX has him at the bottom of the 2nd round - he was excellent as a Freshman, and has been incredible this year. Still lots of games to be played, but at the moment, he looks like he deserves to be a first round pick.

I can't help but think that this draft will determine if the Bucks stay in Milwaukee. If we hit on the pick and turn into a contender it could snowball into a lot of bigger issues - new/additional owner(s), new arena, etc. If we whiff on the pick would that make an already apathetic fan base even less interested?

As for the vote, I chose Wiggins. The thought of having Wiggins/Giannis on the wings is just too enticing for me.

And even though his stock has fallen through the floor, I'd still love to get Poythress in the last 1st, early 2nd.

Given nothing weird happens, three total. Their own, the Lakers', and whichever is worse between the Raps' and Kings' seconds.

My Top 10

Wiggins
Embiid
Parker
Exum
Randle
Gordon
Smart
Vonleh
LaVine
Cauley-Stein

Late lotto sleeper pick: Adrien Payne, MSU. I think he's going to be a longer, more athletic David West. Love his game and aggressive mentality.

2nd round pick: Go for value here. Jahi Carson, McAdoo, Poythress, Aaron Harrison all could be available and I'd be thrilled with any of them.

Voted Andrew Wiggins for the Bucks at #1

In the second round:

Also on the radar: Wayne Selden, Isaiah Austin
