both project to be solid rotation pieces. both also don't project to be great defenders.
with that said, do you prefer taking a connective shooter on the wing or a big that can score in the block and pass?
the lack of defense from kon would hurt less than the lack of defense from queen.
kon would already add to a crowded rookie deal 2/3 on the roster while queen would fill a hole. kon would mean a trade will have to take place between jakobe/ochai/gradey.
queen would be the backup 4/5 right away.
or do you take neither and look at bryant, jak, etc?
Take Kon and thank the draft gods that teams ahead of you reached. He's too good to pass up at 9 and none of our wing prospects are good enough to dissuade me from taking him. Take him and send Dick out for a later 1st and grab Sorber or Beringer
I think teams would trade up for Kon, but not Queens. I would trade back and get one of bryant/fleming + a big
I could get behind that too. I think the Magic would pay a decent amount for him (9+40 for 16/25/2026 1st). I'd do it as Beringer/Sorber should still be there at 16 and we can get a nice guard/wing prospect like Traore/Saraf/Hugo at 25
