Could be any lotto team....21 Players were invited last year....They just put players in the green room that go lotto and some post lotto for TV....We all knew CB will be a lotto pick....Even Egor got invited and he might go anywhere from 13-18...

If it walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it’s probably a freakin duck!

Speaking of young kids who look crazy good....This 15 year old Nasir Anderson already looks like a young Anthony Edwards

I look at that list and I'm cool with drafting any of them.

Asa is the one I'd really have questions about drafting that high

I'm hoping to draft Carter Bryant. We need more two way players and he can plug in pretty much right away at his size. I'd prefer him to Gradey or Battle. If he shows more than being 3&D that's a bonus.

I think Carter Bryant has some star potential. Carter is going to make Ochai/Gradey expendable. Flip those guys for a back up big.

Package one with the second round pick to move up to get a center prospect

I say get Hansen Yang, he’d be almost perfect fit offensively and true successor/potential upgrade to Poeltl long term.

Vegas odds are saying that Egor is a favorite to go top 10 in this draft

Deion? Wasn't he a 5'11 WR?

I feel like passing on Essengue is going to be a huge mistake

Noa has insane growth potential-- hes a smooth, fluid, lengthy wing/big who's already insanely productive without needing the ball in his hands.

As is will be a super effective menace role player.

If he improves on shooting, handle, fills out --which he has the skill and tool to do so

He's a guaranteed star.

he always finds his way to the ball, impact the game, and is crazy aggressive +relentless

Those are MASSIVE intangibles that tell me he will make it and continue to improve.

Poole + #6

for

RJ + #9

Only if Tre Johnson slips then 100%

Replacing RJ with Tre would be exciting and he has star potential

PG- Quickley
SG- Johnson
SF-Ingram
PF-Barnes
C- Poeltl

think of the space for Barnes and Ingram with multiple high volume 3pt gunners in the backcourt

Yes, but a cornerback.

Point being... he's the son of someone who worked hard enough to become a pro and likely understands what it takes to put in the work and make something of his athletic gifts.

Even replacing RJ w/ Poole in our starting lineup could be beneficial. Poole is a much more efficient shooter and we could use his 3pt shooting/shot creation.

On the other hand, Wiz would benefit from having a guy like RJ because he's better at creating for others and they have Bub and AJ waiting in the wings.
