Probably still Zion honestly. He is so immensely physically talented that I still think teams would gamble on taking him and trying to put the proper systems in place to manage his diet/weight/etc. Looking at that draft it's mostly just role players. If not Zion or Ja then it would have to be Darius Garland.

Zion. Because knowing what we know now teams would be 100% on his ass from Day 1. None of this auto-'chise's-#1 guy type stuff.

I would trade the pick honestly. The 2019 draft looks brutal and hopeless.
