RealGM

still waiting on some of the decision makers like Huerter and Jontay, but I don't expect it to change much at this point.
The 2nd half of the 1st round is a bit of a crap shoot though. Wouldn't surprise me to see names like Hutchinson,Okogie or Brunson in the late 1st.

I do wonder what is this difference between people on RealGM and NBA analytics who say Ayton is a clear first pick, but on these board there is a lot of Doncic first still

Doncic just makes so much sense for Phoenix as constructed & any difference in value between him and others including Ayton is negligible. I believe PHO is more likely to pick him than the next 2 teams so if Pho goes Ayton, Doncic could easily drop 3 or more spots add the fact that his agent is reportedly trying to steer him to specific teams,using the threat of him remaining overseas / not coming to the NBA next season etc. There is a good chance SAC would take him as well but he would not be utilized to his greatest strength at the 1 unless they moved Fox which seems unlikely. The kid can play 1 2 or 3 in the league though so the draw might still be there at 2 or 3 just not as strong.
