Kevin porter Jr is someone who fell like crazy...he use to be top 20 now he isn't even projected in even the 2nd round.
He has potential, I'd draft him at 59 if he's there

Geezus.
What the heck happened to Jaylen Hands? Damn near the end of the second round? Yikes.

Dunno... Iggy is overweight 3 or undersized 4. Means he'd be 3rd stringer behind OG with little chances to make the rotation. As much I like his motor (similar to Pascal), he hardly fits to the picture Raps actually have and (I hope) are projecting for 2019/20

I'd rather we draft a player. We can get them undrafted but we have more rights over the player if we can get them at the draft.

Re: 2019 NBA draft: Raps picking 59th
The problem with Masai achieving what he did means my minimum expectation of him is high. For the 59th pick, I expect a hall of famer. An all star at minimum. Ujiri better do his research and get Watson to crunch some numbers.

He's #21 on NBADraft.net
If Jontay (brother of Michael Porter Jr) Porter drops to #59, draft him. He's a modern big with skills. Can fully rehab and take his time in the 905.

If he comes back from the injury good as new, he's definitely a quality NBA wing defender. If we can get him undrafted and spend a year working on his corner 3, he could be a nice Torrey Craig type player for us off the bench. He can really guard. Not much handle and his jumper is solidly below average, though. Takes too many fadeway jumpers but seems comfortable being a 5th option on offense without getting whiny about it. Basically a one end of the floor prospect, but his FT shooting went up every year so maybe he can become an average shooter (left open) and if he can, he'll be a rotation guy if healthy. He's that good as a wing defender.
Where's the D?

Re: 2019 NBA draft: Raps picking 59th
A while ago Masai said there’s multiple guys like Embiid in Africa. I’m expecting an unknown from Africa for us to develop

Might very well be that.

With so many Canadians in this draft I feel like this year will be the year we draft one. I’m thinking Dort or that guy from Michigan

I like what I've seen and read about Eric Paschall from Villanova. Could be a useful player like a poor man's Paul Millsap.

Re: 2019 NBA draft: Raps picking 59th
If Bol Bol drops to a point where we can trade a protected pick(turns into 2nd rounders) I'd jump on that.
Bol Bol and Pascal future would be nice. I'm just in shock how some mocks have him outside the top 20. When it comes to potential he's a top 5 talent, no question.

Everyone should really know this is obvious since blazers picked Sam Bowie over Michael jordan because of position / fit
I think there are some rare cases where you have two players that you rate basically the same and could go with fit. But if you believe player A will be better and is a worse fit trust yourself and go with who you think will be better

Calm down with the me being uneducated. It’s pick 59 not a lottery pick. Roster composition is always a relevant consideration in the second round (do you need a stash pick for example). So before calling me out for not learning look at the mirror.
