I think Kon goes 4. He's a Bane type player.

Fears?


Too much smoke from both teams and agents/players

No one can guess.

I predict a trade down though.. just a gut feeling.. or ots the shawarma.. either way..

maybe a Bane shooter, but that is the only way he resembles Bane. not a defender, no hops, slow foot speed.

It should be a fun night.

I don't think Walter Clayton drops to #25

Some potentials I like at #25 include Liam McNeeley, Danny Wolf, Ryan Kalkbrenner, Will Riley, Maxime Raynaud, Rasheer Fleming, Koby Brea (Yes, I think he's a first-round talent), Drake Powell, Maybe Nique Clifford,

Players who won't reach The Magic at #25 who will have great careers: Cooper Flagg, Tre Johnson, Ace Bailey, Carter Bryant, Egor Demin.

I still think Clayton is the favorite if he makes it to 25. If Jase drops to us, that would be a great pick too. The height is obviously a factor but the skills are there.

Ace seems really immature.

Danny Ainge is praying Charlotte doesn't pick Kon.

If Edgecombe develops a shot, he's going to be a problem in this league.
