The 2016 draft is a Big man and PGs draft..
After watching some of those Prospects scouting reports and highlights on YouTube, I'll say that this draft is no weak draft as some reports make us to believe ..
the top 10-12 prospects can in fact go toe to toes with the ones from this year, except that KAT is on another level..

Honestly, if we were to go top 5 this year, I would go with Jaylen Brown as our SG even though he is listed as a 6^7 SF, but he has the frame to play the SG.. He reminds me of T mac..

Since we not going to be in play to go that high, let's being realistic.
The magic will be in play to pick its player between the 10th and the 15th pick for sure.

What type of player we need and/or what position does our team need to cover mostly?
To me, the type of player that our team needs regardless of position (except maybe at center) is a go to player.. A player who can help us keeping a lead or regain one especially late in games with his scoring prowess; cause so far that's our biggest issue.. but unfortunately, we not in any position to get such a player in the draft since we'll be out of that range.

The position we desperately need to cover is PF. It would be nice to have a stable 2 way PF.

Here are the players that will be available around our spot.. possibly. .

My favorite player (at our range) and the perfect fit for us would be Ivan Rabb..

But there is a really high chance he will go in the top 8 range. .

Ivan Rabb(18)___________PF. 6'10 _ 7.1 wingspan ______type= 2 way
Cheick Diallo(19)________PF. 6'9 _ 7.4 wingspan _______type= defense anchor. Improve jump shot
Henry Ellenson(18)______PF. 6'10 _ 7.2 wingspan ______type= offense
Diamond Stone(18)_____ PF/C. 6'9 _ 7.4 wingspan _____type= defense anchor. Improve post & jump shot
Thomas Bryant(18)_____ C/PF. 6'10_ 7.5 wingspan ____type= improve defense. Improve post & jump shot

Looking at our roster though, I think Hennigan (assuming he goes for need) will be targeting a more traditional-bodied PF to replace Nicholson (who I think will be gone) and to provide an extra wrinkle to the squad when we don't want to go small-ball.
