Trade down. Kings don't really need a big man as much as they need a guard. I think PHX would love to trade up at this point and have their pick at the first Big in this draft not named Bender. If trades aren't allowed here then I guess the pick would be one of Valentine, Luwawu, or Baldwin.

Voted Valentine but I would agree that if Murray, Hield, Dunn are all gone we should trade down.

Apparently they wanted Brown.. in this mock the Denver board took Dunn in hopes of a trade

Tough call Laimbeer. With what's left I'd consider trading the pick.

I think Poetl would be a hot trade down item as of now

I will say that I wouldn't be punching holes in walls if they came out with Luwawu either.

Denzel Valentine in a bit of a surprise to me. Good luck in the draft and thanks for playing.

Just a general comment - most mocks have him going a bit later.

Yeah and I think that's why most of us are hoping we can trade down. The guys that we want are in that late lottery, mid first round area and taking them at 8 might be a stretch. Seems like 8-12 or so is kind of the big guy territory which is something we don't really need. Though, if we aren't able to trade down I wouldn't necessarily have an issue with us reaching with Valentine if that's the guy we want. Not like any of the other guys mocked to go around 8 are gonna be much more of a game changer than he would be, this range is all role players and we just need to fill the roles that are lacking on our squad.

Based on this scenario, who should the Kings select?
