I really wanted to throw this in there. I don't think that some of these guys should necessarily be taken in these spots, as I believe that Ayton will not fall at all and Bamba certainly shouldn't be taken so highly, but I think that this would make for some really fun things in the NBA next year.

imo Bamba could be a tier 1 defender given the length and athleticism but projuections on his offensive game and bbiq don't come close around tier 4 ,so he can't be justified this high for most teams over high IQ offensive first bigs like Ayton and Bagley whos defense needs work but the length is solid etc. Might make some sense for ATL if they want to take the risk and live with the elite defense as justification with hopes of a much better decision maker long-term.

I like the Lonnie Walker pick to the Clippers

There's nothing controversial about this. Having Bamba at #1 is (very) questionable to me but it's not like you have Brandon McCoy there.

I think my board having Huerter and Jontay top 10 and Miles #3 is probably considered more "controversial".

I wish I could rename the thread, but I don't know how and I'm going to keep my mocks in the same place. This one is more controversial than the last, but still nothing is completely insane.

Other than trying to be "controversial" why would you have DDV and Grayson Allen going lottery and not Kevin Huerter? That makes no sense.

Just my personal views, man. Also, this isn't really supposed to make that much sense.

That one is also not controversial but the longest odds on the internet.
No way Ayton falls past 2 no way Allen or the Big Ragu are lottery picks , and it is highly unlikely Porter goes 2nd.
But you knew that when you made the mock

I like Doncic alot and would be ok with the pick with Bagley being gone but i personally think i take Ayton there before Doncic but thats just me both are tier 1 elite prospects with Bagley you can't go wrong with any of the 3. Bagley > Ayton > Doncic is how i have it so far.
