I think Ivey goes here. Ivey and Mitchell should be a good backcourt going forward.

This board, like draft twitter, is a bunch of groupthink.

Ivey is electric, but I'd go with Keegan Murray here. Scoring guards aren't as hard to find as two-way wings.

Sac should consider trading out of this spot.
If they stay here, Murray will be the best of this bunch.

Someone on twitter said Ivey isn't as good fit for SAC because of the crowded back court with Fox and Mitchell.

I'm not so sure about that.

Fox at PG, Ivey at SG. Mitchell as the 6th man. They could be the new Bad Boys Pistons, who had Isiah at PG, Dumars at SG, Vinnie Johnson as the 6th man.

Bad Boys had Laimbeer. Kings have Sabonis..

It worked out okay for the Bad Boys.

Yes, I know different era. But honestly I don't see why it can't work. Ivey, Mitchell, Sabonis and Fox are all good passers - none of them are really that much of a ball dominant iso scorer. Just keep the ball moving and they'll be fine.

Plenty of mins for all 3 guards. Ivey's rookie year let's say he plays 30 mins a game and 34 mins a game for Fox. That means 32 total mins that 1 of them is on the bench. Davion can play like 27-30 of those mins..

Ivey is an obvious pick here for me. Didn't even look at anyone else. Ivey has a direct path to being an All Star.

Ivey. Could care less about the Kings backcourt. You take the player with the highest ceiling. You need stars, not fit, when you're drafting at the top of the lottery every single year.

Voted Sharpe though it would depend on work outs. Sac desperately needs wings and won’t get them except via the draft. Ideally Sac trades up for Smith or trades down as a poor shooting under 6’4” guard is not the player they need.

keep in mind it's a prediction of how it will go, not how we think it should go.

at least that's how i understand this is supposed to work. perhaps i'm the one that is wrong.

keegan should go #4, ivey will most likely go #4 so i voted ivey.
