included it in in an upcoming trade so I'm gucci, but i have 5 draft picks in the first now to think about .. i'm just considering where i want to address certain needs and who might slide or be available later and where to take more home run swings versus guys i'm more "sure" about.

that's my big thing with this draft, there's so many guys i know will be solid starters but i have that already on my team with jaquez/podz/cason etc. so i gotta see who might be worth a swing or not

A month ago I thought he’d fall to me at 18. Knew for a fact that wasn’t possible shortly after. I like his game a lot!

As I’ve been saying in the draft thread, no such thing as reach in this draft, very surprising pick by Memphis, love the pick though

not in this draft...if you have conviction go with it....really isn't a consensus with any pick.

He wasn't making it past me at 11 lol

3 might be a bit rich for my blood, but I more than get it. If he goes to the right place irl, he can develop into a really good player. My comp was taller Brunson/DeRozan without hops on the high end.
BaF Lakers:

Nikola Topic/Kasparas Jakucionis
VJ Edgecombe/Jrue Holiday
Shaedon Sharpe/Cedric Coward
Kyle Filipowski/Collin Murray-Boyles
