It's not really like they traded Gobert though, Utah probably traded for the pick and had Denver make it for them.

6-11 imo. I like him but it's hard to distinguish him from that pile up of upper middle lottery talent.

I'm not sure what the Sixers are doing. They haven't brought in a single prospect for a personal workout yet.

If you just took him from Boston and threw him into the draft(basically if I got to see his rookie year before drafting), I'd take him 3rd or 4th.

Most likely where Issac falls, both seem like risk picks with high upside.

Fox and Monk have visits planned this week. I'm guessing Fultz and Jackson pass on visits with them,I wonder about Tatum.

This is a better answer. Pretty similar upside to Isaac.

Feels like 6ers will move the pick for butler or 5+10. Cant see monk going 3, fox would be a stretch though its possible I suppose.

I just don't see Kings will trade 5 + 10 for 3.
It seems like there are 10-11 good prospects who are similar in terms of potential in this draft so I won't be surprised at if teams picks at that range go for players to fulfill their needs rather than best player available. Therefore, I cannot think that 76ers picking Fox over Jackson or Tatum while Fox is the believed to be the target for Kings at 5.

I completely agree, this is for sure a deep draft. Looking at the board, kings could get dsj as low as 10 which is insane. I personally would keep 5+10 but it is peculiar that philly has not had workouts with top prospects. Gonna be fun!

If Lakers choose Jackson then we better stay put and select Lonzo.

I def see him boom or bust but if he falls to three its the right pick for sure regardless.
