Wouldn’t be surprised if Masai tries to get a pick in the range to take him

“The Kings are willing to move for [Anunoby], however for that to happen they will have to… sacrifice one of Kevin [Huerter] or Malik Monk,” Tsaltas adds.
I knew it. Absolute delusion on Vivek's part.

Just imaging going into the draft with #3, 7, #13 plus whatever other picks and players we have coming in. We could legit leave with Scoot, Ausar Thompson, Coulibaly.
Scoot
Ausar
Coulibaly
Scotty
Koloko
That is such a beautiful young core to watch grow together.
I'm sure there's this exact same post from last yr, the yr before that, and the year before that, just different draft players

In Raptor Ball I Trust

He really showed a lot when he was with the Spurs, hopefully he can show a lot less with his next team to avoid getting waived.

Well here is an easier task. Get an additional pick in the 30's and select Mouhamed Gueye. Does not matter we have Poetl and Koloko as Gueye looks legit as 6'11 with 7'4 wingspan PF-C defends the rim and perimeter, has a jumper and the long ball.

I am not saying you are right that we need to draft Gueye should we acquired an early 2nd round pick but Christian Koloko should not impact our draft strategy. He is not a true rotation player yet. If a center is BPA, you draft the center.

Deal would probably be Porzingis + 8 for Nurkic + filler + 3.
They still have enough for a another move with Sharp/Simons/8/23.

Draft always makes people lose sight of reality. Imagine trying to develop 3 first year, 1 second year and 1 third year guy at the same time!

Miller is the only guy I would want if we trade up into the top 4 so this works.
He also opens up the floor for Scottie a lot and Dean brought up a great point regarding his defense. The team was better with him on the floor and it was a really good defense that didn't get many steals or blocks. So him lacking stocks could have been by design / system.

Re: 2023 Draft Discussion Part 7
If we come out with Brandon Miller, Cason Wallace, Bufkin we’re golden
Miller from trading Pascal
Get 7 from Indiana for OG

Re: 2023 Draft Discussion Part 7
scoot going second might make it more likely that portland would do a siakam deal, lillard wont accept going into next season with miller over a proven vet and i think more teams would be willing to give up better packages for scoot.

Gueye has played organized basketball for four years. Two of U.S. high school prep and two of Pac 12 NCAA. First team.
Mouhamed Gueye is a 6-foot-11 NBA prospect at the forward position with a 7-foot-3 wingspan out of Washington State. The 20-year-old from Dakar, Senegal set career-highs in both points (31) and rebounds (18) in his sophomore year. Gueye was named to the All-Pac-12 first team last season after averaging 14.5 points (9th in Pac-12) and 8.7 rebounds (2nd in the Pac-12).
