2025 Draft Thread

Who's the best athlete in the second round? That's probably where Horst will go.

I know you're joking but it's gotta be Alijah Martin.

Mike Redd was the 43rd pick in 2000 and Ramon Sessions was the 56th pick in 2007. We need a big hit like that at 47 this year. It’s been quite a while. I don’t count Malcolm Brogdon because he was picked in the 30s, looking at players picked around our spot now. Who else comes to mind?

We can’t blame the overall draft class and how weak it is. The 2000 draft class is widely regarded as the worst draft of all time and we drafted an all star at 43.

Bring back the nostalgia.

Half joking. AJJ and AJ Johnson and then trading for Kuzma is a trend I'd say.

I see Horst taking a guy like RJ Luis.Athletic, but not a lot of pure bball skills.

I'd go with Sion James, who is the opposite of Luis. Can shoot and defend, but not a lot of athleticism.

Based on who we're working out, we're going to select an older, experienced player. Workouts have included players like Micah Peavey, Mark Sears, Darrion Williams and Hunter Sallis. The only younger player we've worked out is versatile big Izan Almansa. Peavey is the only interesting player so far.

Is euro stash still a thing? Feels like that just kind of disappeared after being all the rage for awhile?

Bet you're gonna see it a good amount because of how many teams have multiple 1sts. Brooklyn, Orlando, OKC...

Mouhamed Faye has a lot of Larry Sanders in a good way. I watch zero non Bucks basketball so curious what you guys think of him as a switchable PF/C

I REALLY like Traore. I can’t see him making it to us but he really seems undervalued at this point. I don’t know how but I’d love to move up or buy another pick to grab him.

Some Wiz fans have been talking on their forum about potentially taking him at #6 lol. I like him too and to be fair, it does feel like he has a wide range (think I've seen him in the 20s on some mocks?). Would definitely be curious what it costs to move up for him.

Penda's one of the few int'ls I really like this draft. Very surprised by how big he is per these measurements. Knew he was a big wing but this is easily modern 4 size.

Yeah and at 242lbs he’s going to bully some defenders in the post (though he could stand to trim down a bit)

For sure, he's looking pretty puffy these days. Very inconsistent shooter, but a steady, heady player who does a lot of good things on the court for a pretty good team at a young age. Can't say I'm totally unconcerned about a 20 year old pro basketball player already putting on bad weight.

When Jarace Walker started getting minutes in the playoffs I was happy to see him playing well and then I’m like dude got chubby legs. Then I see him on twitter interrupting a Haliburton interview with his Culvers order and I’m like NO my guy lol.

Nembhard bro stock gotta be rising to like early second round right?
