James Jones

And because Ness can't take another One Team Only guy, for my following pick I will take Devin Booker

I’ll take my 5th starter -

Bruce Brown - NETS
Excellent cutter and a 40% 3 point shooter.

And my steady vet 6th man -

Chris Paul - SAS

I think I can make my next two picks based on roddy and Laimbeer's eligibility

Round 6 - Bam Adebayo
Round 7 - Gary Payton
