Around #19, Masai tends to go with soph/junior NCAA wings with length. If I had to bet, they will go with a wing at 19 and then a big with 31. They usually put a premium on size/versatility with their high picks. This will be Masai's 10th draft with the Raps, and he's only taken a guard inside the top 35 twice (Flynn/Delon) and never once between 1-19. They tend to take flyers on guards with later 2nds or in the undrafted market. But who knows, maybe a guard they really like falls into their lap.

Newton, Shead or Beekman UDFA would be good to fight against JFL for 3rd PG.

Moody, Wiggins and 1st pick for Boucher, McDaniels, Ochai and 2nd pick

PG IQ - Carrington - UDFA
SG Dick - Moody - JFL
SG Barrett - Wiggins - Dick
PF Barnes - Wiggins - Olynyk
C Poeltl - Olynyk - Chomche

I don't know if you get Moody and a 1st, especially that we aren't really giving them any pieces to work with. Maybe,if you swapped out Bouch and McDaniels and added in Brown it could work. If it was a 1st, I'd want a 2025 1st that is top 10 protected at most. They could easily be a late lottery team next year, which could really help the Raps having two top 15ish picks.

At #19 I am almost certain Masai will take George. The Canadian ties, forward size with guard skills, and we need 3+D pretty bad. He wouldn't be the worst gamble.

I love all the late scouting and finding the hidden gems, but the two guys I liked from the last college season are still the same two I like now. Not crazy upside guys, but high IQ play now guys that fit the system to a tee.

Marquette players - Tyler Kolek and Oso Ighodaro. I'd assume Kolek is the guy we would have to draft at 19 and Ighodaro at 31. I don't think these two should be separated because they know each other inside out.

Oso is probably my favorite upper classman in the draft. If Oso can add a jumper, which looks pretty solid here, I think he is a must-draft for this motion heavy flex offense. You don't see it in the workout setting, but his short-roll passing, handle for a big, and pinch post passing is best in class.

Kolek has the best passing in class (Juan Nunez honorable mention)

Reed Sheppard is a special shooter and small size defender, but Kolek holds his own in similar ways using his craft to get looks.

Tyler Kolek
60 TS%
39 3P%
42 AST%
27 FTR
2.8 STL%
BPM 9.2
DBPM 2.8

Reed Sheppard
69.9 TS%
52 3P%
24 AST%
24 FTR
4.6 STL%
BPM 10.9
DBPM 4.4

Oh ya, forgot about Brown as an asset.

Brown, Ochai and 2nd pick for Wiggins, Moody and 1st pick (lottery protected). I guess this would be a post-draft trade.

Is there a package for Boucher and McDaniel's expiring?

That would be a fleecing, but Wiggins contract might be hard to manage if MLSE won't want to go into the tax. Moody and Scottie would be up for extensions after the year, and based on Moody's age he will be paid, unless he flops. Although, we would get relief from Boucher and McDaniels coming off the books. Not sure how the numbers would crunch. We would have some pretty nice depth, and a lot of picks to deal with in next few years. Wiggy becomes tradeable in his final year.

He also had Lowry/Derozan locked in as starting guards for the majority of that period and also FVV afterwards. the roster had great needs elsewhere

People will say that's too much. :roll: Then send McDaniels instead of Ochai, then we are fleecing them. :lol:

I think Scheierman goes 1st round to a contender but we'll see I guess. Dude is a baller and absolutely deadly when he's wide open.

Filipowski not being unanimously in the top 10 in this draft astounds me.


I don't see the hype that everyone else does. Stretch big who's a PF. Not strong enough or rebound well enough for the 5, not athletic enough to guard the Tweener type of PFs that most teams implore. He's a big who's supposed to be a shooter, i like tyler smith a little more, more versatile
