Nelson looked very promising just by highlights as a potential stretch 4/5. Think his man defense is questionable but this lane tests suggests he may be OK on switches.

Was hoping Phillips would fall into the 2nd. Still could but not into the 40s. His defensive profile is what you want and his offensive is workable.

there is no way Phillips is falling to the second, a lot of teams love him and that was before the combine too

I was hoping Phillips would be there at 27 with the Nuggets pick, but I think he'll get taken before then.

Imagine if those two learn to shoot in addition to all the other things they already do well.

Cam Whitmore might go before the Thompson Twins. I still have all of them top 10 but come on he looks like he could be a star wing player

He is raw… like really raw, but I get it since late in the first a lot of teams are drafting for a second or third time. There’s nothing wrong with taking a raw prospect if you got two or three picks. Main thing is I think a few very good ready now prospects are going to fall to the early second that would normally go late to teams looking for solid roleplayers.
