No Zach Edey

Give me one of Bub, Ware, Collier or Baylor and I'm happy with this pick.

Edey is likely going to be a bust. I feel the same about Ware but the potential tag is enough to have me partially on board. I would probably go with the prospect that drops out of the lottery similar to Whitmore. That sounds like it'll possibly happen to Topic and Dillingham.

I would guess he could take out an entire bucket of KFC solo. As a light snack after practice.

Maybe if he's picked in the top 10 like Big Country or Olowokandi or Kwame Brown. Really he should be at least a bigger Ivica Zubac, who also shoots 73% FT's (may be better), that might be able to shoot 3's. He'll be better than an MLE player.

He'll be better than Mason Plumlee who was drafted #22. I think most likely he'll be slightly better than Poeltl with the better FT shooting an more blocks, dunks and alley oops instead of layups.

Love Edey but him going in the top 10 is nuts

should see a big ramp up in draft coverage with the finals now over and the draft about a week away. all eyes (at least on here) gonna be squarely on this FO as they navigate this offseason.

Our list of workouts hasn't grown hoping there's been some private ones

Have to keep reminding yourself that the draft starts at 8 this year.

Right, like Sarr is Derek Lively that may be able to shoot.

There are like 7-8 guys that will go in the top 10 this year that probably wouldn't in any other year.

Castle is probably going #4 and there's no way OKC would trade Cason for him and he went #10 last year.

I'm off on all the bigs in our range. Ware isn't smart enough or skilled enough to make that roll pass to the open man in real-time.
Missi does have the foot speed to play 5 out & take his big off the dribble, that's intriguing, but again, he's not a good passer or shooter at all. His defense/motor looks game changing tho
I'd rather go after Jalen Smith in FA & let him be our stretch big.

Tyler or Bub or TDS or Jaylan Tyson are my final 4 who I'm locked into.
