Philly is rumored to like Monk but the #3 for Monk is too high. They also need a PG but were also rumored to go after Lowey and Jrue Holiday. Now they are also saying that Ben Simmons is gonna play PG so drafting a ball dominant player like Smith doesn't make much sense. Maybe trade the pick?
Then you have the Kings who want Fox bad. But if Fox goes top 4, does that mean they take DSjr? They also need a SF with Gay gone and if Fox goes top 4, then that means one of Tatum or Jackson will be available at the 5th. Tatum would be a good fit next to Hield imo. Jackson, I don't see dropping past PHX. He is a perfect complement to Booker.
Pretty much after Fultz and Ball, its anyone's game. Def gonna be a crazy draft night. Less than two weeks left!
Oh wait, Orlando is the team that has a second workout with him, not the Knicks. I got those confused. Yeah, I think Orlando is really interested in him. It's interesting because before they got Payton they wanted Victor Oladipo and even before that they wanted Eric Bledsoe. And when they wanted Oladipo they were thinking he would be able to play point. They've been desperately looking for an athletic point guard for a while now.
