I voted McDermott....IDK why, but I'm not really enamored with any of the available prospects, and a lot depends on who was selected with our 1st pick.

I know McDermott has some athletic issues, but dudes a high IQ player and a lights out shooter and crafty scorer....I think Brown would be able to utilize him well, especially if we added him to a MCW-Wiggins-Noel lineup.

Im fine with Young because of his upside, but he does worry me...His defense is a legit concern and he doesn't exactly seem to be the most intelligent player.

Harris' skill set would be an ideal 2-way SG....size/athletic ability are somewhat of a concern, but if he can become a wes matthews like SG....id be on board.

Stauskas would be my choice if we landed Embiid. I think he has a low floor, and at worst he's a shooting specialist. At best he seems like he could be a Klay Thompson like SG.

Kyle Anderson I like, but would possibly require a Turner like ball dominant role....not sure how that benefits us with MCW.

Payne is also someone too keep an eye on...despite his age, He's very skilled and is a perfect fit at the 4 next to Noel.
might be a bit of a reach at 10 tho.

Sure wish nop would have lost a few more. It won't hold up long term but there seems to be such a drop off after 8.

I guess my uneducated choice would be Lavine from UCLA based solely on upside. We just need so much more talent to compete. I'd rather suck for 3 more years then pick based on fit and end up with ateam that doesn't have realistic championship goals

Lavine, Lavine, Lavine





High bust potential but highest reward, we can afford to take that risk

Lol this comp literally popped in my head within 5 minutes the first time I watched him play. Glad I'm not the only one.
