Jamaaliver, great job keeping us informed about the prospects. The spotlight threads helped me get back into being more focused on them.

League sources say Cedric Coward is generating interest as high as No. 11 in Portland and is said to have worked out multiple times for the Thunder. Maybe the Nets, if they’re really that keen on landing Coward, could move into the middle of the first round by trading some of their later picks. – via marcstein.substack.com

The Cooper Flagg Draft.

I can't wait to see him face off against Jalen and Zaccharie!

Wizards looking like they might actually be onto something.

Raptors needed Collin Murray-Boyles and drafted him 9th overall.

Raptors have too many 6'8" forwards who can't shoot...

I hate the fit of CMB in TOR.

Essengue, Carter Bryant, Derik Queen all on the board after the top-10.

One of them is getting selected at #13?

I am thankful he was drafted before we pick. More options for us now!

Move down 10 spots and gain an unprotected best of pick next year. Seems like a steal.

The Grizzlies are sending No. 16, a 2028 first-round pick via Orlando and two seconds to Portland for Cedric Coward, sources said.
