I like KJ upside and athleticism but I dont have him valued higher than Either Baylor guard at this point unless it's a team in the 1st off season of a long rebuild. But it's really probably too soon for any of them over Kai who I am taking again here I am on the fence about putting Sengun this high

Took a chance on Springer, though I have to get a deeper understanding of other prospects in this same range.

Giddey or Springer

Give me the 18 year older from down under.

Giddey... up. I'm late to the party, but Jalen Johnson is not going lottery.

I guess Wagner

what's the argument for Giddey over Springer?

I'd assume bigger and better playmaking. I think Springer is better at everything else right now, but it's not clear if he has a skill that will be a clear outlier (I think his drive and kick game will, but we'll see).

EDIT: and I voted Springer, I really like him.

Poll results seem to prove no reasonable consensus at all that makes sense who is going after the chalk picks...no way imo Bouknight is more than a fringe lottery target for most teams and I doubt Wagner has any chance of going before 20th.

Going Bouknight. Least amount of question marks out of this group while still having great upside as an overall creator.

Giddey may be as good as Simmons. I think the potential lifts him. I actually thought maybe the Warriors would be looking at him

In the end I believe Sengun, Giddey, and potentially Wagner all get picked ahead of Johnson and Bouknight. Guess we shall see...

Wagner's family has been really reading RealGM's forums lately.

fyi this is a big board, not a mock of who gets picked where.

This an offense only Giddey/Simmons comparison?

If it stays tied I'll switch from Springer to Bouknight just to break it.
