Not sure Rabb makes much sense for the Bucks. I'd probably roll with BAM and hope you have your center position locked down for the next 5 years between him and Maker. I'm hoping Hartenstein (to play at center) or one of the PG drops.

You serious? As a Bucks fan you should pray that your FO doesnt pick Hartenstein. Its not sure whether he will ever be able to play center at NBA level and it will definitely take him at least two years before he can play at that level without being a liability. I think even Giles would be a better choice if you are really looking for a center.

So why did Ntilikina drop from 5th to 11th in less than a weak, despite just recently having his best game in quiet a while ... ?

Yeah, I like the skill set and read enough on DX that his defense there should be solid, but I'll admit that my "scouting" seldom goes deeper than checking out guys on DX. Physically and athletically he seems like he should be solid there but I'd like to know more about him if you wouldn't mind elaborating a bit.

Change in team standings, teams that need PG, and talent parity between 5 and 11.

We had a bit of a discussion about him recently in an other thread:
viewtopic.php?p=51452248#p51452248I could provide you with some more recent highlights of him (PM) if you are interested ... ?

Fultz to 3? Ballsy. I disagree, but respect it. I'm not completely sold on Justin Jackson as a lottery pick either, but it is a trending opinion it seems. Otherwise I think you're pretty spot on all around.
Btw, Robert Williams is going back to college.

Thanks - sometimes as a result of having done quite a few mocks, I end up wanting to be a little different and put something out like this. I can envision a scenario in which Fultz goes third, although it would be a surprise.
I wasn't on the Justin Jackson train but if he can concentrate on being a guy who is constantly running around screens and making cuts , there is a high demand for catch and shoot players who don't need to pound the rock to get their offense. I agree I've probably been victim to the momentum of his rise.
And good point on Robert Williams. I'll need to correct that.
