Hornets Draft Board #10

Post #1 » by **fatlever** » Tue May 31, 2016 5:21 pm

We are starting our draft big board this year at #10 after removing the consensus top 9 players in the draft from consideration

Players removed

Ben Simmons
Brandon Ingram
Dragon Bender
Buddy Hield
Jamal Murray
Kris Dunn
Jaylen Brown
Jakob Poeltl
Marquess Chriss

Next 9 + other option

Deyonta Davis
Skal Labissiere
Henry Ellenson
Furkan Korkmaz
Domatas Sabonis
Denzel Valentine
Damian Jones
Malik Beasley
Taurean Prince
---
Best of rest (soon to be added)

Wade Baldwin - 3 votes
Dejounte Murray
Taurean Prince
Cheick Diallo
Malachi Richardson
Tyler Ulis
Timothe Luwawu
Demetrius Jackson
Brice Johnson

(note: espn only has their top 20 available, so after these guys, we'll just be using DX and NBAdraft.)

I won't be very good at keeping up with this, so hopefully everyone will chip in and help keep this going by starting new polls every day for the next week.

Valentine was my vote also. 10 might be higher than he is projected in many mocks, but I suspect that will change come draft time. I like the idea of adding a proven guy who fits what we need in a wing. He seems like he'd be a nice fit next to MKG and he could learn the ropes from Batum. He is also insurance in case Batum leaves or if we ever decide to trade Batum.

Went Deyonta Davis- just too much upside compared to who is left. He reminds me a lot of Tristian Thompson coming out of Texas and I could see him landing in the top 6. Elite shot blocking tools and he moves around the court like Anthony Davis without the ball.

Such a pain that taptalk doesn't show things like polls.

Drives me nuts.

I like Domantas, but i had enough of hybrid big men on our roster. So, i vote for Wade Baldwin.

I voted Jones becaus eI think all these guys are pretty similar and he fills a big need.

#10 = Deyonta Davis
