Kel'el Ware
Baylor Scheierman
Jaylon Tyson
Ryan Dunn
Tristan Da Silva
Yves Missi
Terrence Shannon Jr.

Would be happy getting at least one of these guys in our 23-33 range.

Very similar to my list but no to Da Silva for me. Not huge on Ware either. I'd add Holmes.

Sam Vecenie released his mock tonight. Has us taking Ware and AJ Johnson. A few other picks that stand out to me:

Bub Carrington #12 to OKC

Devin Carter #13 to SAC (a man can dream of us trading to that spot)

Dillingham #16 to Philly

Collier #26 to WAS

Dillon Jones #52 (our former pick)

KJ Simpson #58 to Dallas

Tyler Kolek or a bad trade involving 23 are gonna be the only way to ruin tomorrow night for me.

Mention Shannon as a potential target for Chicago at #11 really jumped out at me.

Dunn at 22, also mentioning Chicago, Knicks, and Toronto as other potential landing spots for him.

The only guy I see no reasonable case for taking is Klintman. There are other guys I personally wouldn't draft but who have some potentially redeeming traits.

Honestly, pretty weird that the draft starts tomorrow. Everybody get your picks in, I drop the bored board board after lunch.

Have you already charted out the rankings already made in this thread? Thinking I might want to edit mine

I think Klintman is the exact "reasonable" choice I would dislike the most as well.

Yes please.

Didn't realize Christie was that young. He's already got a pro style offensive game. If he can get stronger, sky is the limit. Potential Middleton replacement down the line. Might consider at 23.

Prepare for Fotis And1's.

No way Carter drops to 13.

I'll reiterate my dumb notions:

Clingan goes 1

Shannon goes in the lottery.

I won't be super upset by anyone at 23.

I really don't like Christie or Kolek but I'd learn to like them.

Ron Swanson · Post #1393 » by **Ron Swanson** » Wed Jun 26, 2024 1:38 am

I’ve talked myself into being cool with Christie at 33. **** it. Just draft all the bloodline kids and maybe you get the Jaden/LaMelo instead of the Jalen/Lonzo.

Think he was at ~36% on layups this year. Really talented shooter but shooting a higher % on 3's than layups has to be pretty rare lol. Wasn't a fan of Max and am not really a fan of Cam either, but I also do kinda subscribe to the theory of just drafting good shooters in the 2nd round and seeing if you can teach them defense and Christie certainly checks that box.

Teach him how to defend and he's plug and play 3&D

Kyshawn as a Midds replacement would be pretty sweet. Doubt we trade up but if we do he's my target.

Only the first 3, go for it.

As the Bucks gauge the trade market for Brook Lopez, they have left rival teams with the impression the No. 23 spot could be focused on a potential long-term replacement at center. Milwaukee attempted to bring Dayton big man DaRon Holmes II in for a workout, sources said. Holmes declined the invite, but not because of a widely whispered promise with Denver at No. 28, according to league sources. While Holmes indeed shut down his workout schedule —prompting teams to suspect a promise somewhere in the late first round — and Holmes could certainly be an option for the Nuggets at that spot, there has been no guarantee Denver would select him, sources said. Holmes has garnered interest from enough teams to earn a green-room invite. He’s been connected by league personnel to Sacramento as well.

Means nothing. Not the type of inexperienced player that we'd need to work out. They also already know about his heavily lauded work ethic. Draft him anyways. Dude is going to look so much more dynamic in an NBA offense
