Jalen Suggs Hype Thread

[cedric76]

PG: Suggs(G), Cole(G), Fultz* (PG), MCW
SG: Hampton (G), Harris (G), Suggs (G)
SF: Chuma (F),Ross (GF),Bacon (GF), MCW,Brazdeikis
PF: JI (F), Chuma (F)
C: Mo, WCJ,Wagner

If we draft Suggs, our guards rotation would be loaded

Who do we go for with number 8?

Barnes/Kuminga if they fall
FRANZ WAGNER
JALEN JOHNSON
COREY KISPERT
ZIAIRE WILLIAMS

OR we trade Ross+8 or Harris+8 for a young good SF

I think we trade Ross regardless, he makes little sense for us right now. Drafting guards quickly becomes awkward even in todays league. Lets hope Hampton can play sf, he did for Denver at least. It would be funny if we drafted Suggs/Bouknight. Guard rotation in one go.

The most report/scoputing video/video i see, the more I think that suggs would do well next to Fultz

fultz, Suggs, RJ, Chuma ,JI lineups could be fun to watch

I agree with you Ross has a lot of value for contending teams

for me, until Fultz can shoot effectively from distance, im not worried about how anyone fits next to him. his fit becomes a secondary concern

I feel similar. I wouldnt draft with Fultz in mind. He has a lot to prove. They are both fairly big and with above average passing skill so in that regard the fit is ok. I like Cooper but its even more problematic with Cole and Fultz. Maybe we will trade one or two of them soon.

i cant get on board with Cooper though (and it isnt just an Auburn thing ).

5'10ish PG that looks to be a very good passer, but is tiny (160 lbs) with short arms, short leaper, bad outside shot, no defense.

I agree but look, cp3 is in the finals, Young was great in ecf and Morant is a rising star.
Cooper is more athletic than Trae Young, he is same level passer and he shot 82% from the line. He also missed big part of college season, he was out of shape at the beginning and he carried huge load.

yes, but CP3 was always a good defender and can shoot from distance. Ja Morant is 6'3 with insane athleticism and big wingspan and decent defender.

I think if Suggs is available at 5 and Green isn’t, you’ve got to pick him. The Magic are in asset collection mode and you get BPA right now. Suggs checks tons of boxes, he’s got star potential, he’s a known commodity from the NCAA ranks, that can give the Magic a marketable player and help tickets get sold.

Everyone’s talking “trade Markelle” but you guys do realize he’s really not traceable at the moment. I think he can bounce back and reach some semblance of his potential. A backcourt of Suggs and Fultz could be very good and fun to watch.

Yes, I doubt Kelle is tradeable even, but I still wouldnt consider him in any scenario re-building this team. He should just be the icing on the cake

I was against picking Suggs at #5 but I ve changed my mind, if someone from the top 4 drops out of the top 4, we have to take him

My fav prospect between the first five or six.
to me is exactly what we need,when cade will be gone (sigh)

this guy could play pick and roll since day one,showed flashes as good shooter when he has space off the dribble,i mean could become a deadly player in that situation,that is basically the fundation of almost any nba franchise today.

is also a terrific always-engaged competitor,with good athetic ability that could traslate in a high-level defender.

if we had to trade and pay to get him i would be fully on board with that,pretty sure there is a drop between first four prospects and the others

Suggs or barnes will be our pick at 5 (I think)

Good view, let's get him!
