Interesting... Grady has the measurements to be an excellent SG. I wonder if his lane agility can make him keep up with the guards.

Also... GG and Hendriks are practically the same..

Jarace is only 6'6? Well there goes our hope he becomes the PF/C for us unless he is the next Draymond.

Oh and many thanks Knightro for posting those.

Hope there is more. My personal fave of George and Scoot... i think a lot here also want to know about Miller.

The Thompson Twins just got drool worthy IMO. 7'0 Ft wingspans, elite athleticism, and guard skills? Take my f****** money right now.

Yeahhhhh..... they might have measured themselves out of the 7+ range. lol

If Ausar is available at our first pick.... I'm down! And Dick/hendricks/whitmore/etc for the 2nd pick.... would not be shabby at all.

38.0” max vert, 34.5” no-step vert, 10.89 sec. pro drill, 3.20 sprint

He has a high floor and NBA ready defense. He will definitely contribute sooner rather than later..

:lol: :lol:

i'm opposite, i literally never gave a s*** about draft less.

I didn't even know it's happening within next 24 hours until drsd posted.

Magic got their core in Banchero and Franz, whatever we can get this year is bonus. League is very wild ( hence, all the movment nba is expecting next summer) so i'm happy with current core and i hope we can build something sustainable for several seasons before imploding into expected salary slavery of max contracts, supermax contracts, crazy resigns etc.

it seems like every team has 4-6 years window from honeymoon to divorce of it's best players or at least complete teardown aside from key player due unsustainable financial model nba agreed upon with new CBA past 2016.

I do not trust Thompson twins at all… OTE is such a small time program against small time competition.
