Both Fox and Monk are outplaying Ball right now.

I have a feeling Ball's stock is going to drop. Rumors are that Magic loves Ball. Idk about that. Magic is too smart to show his hand on who he will draft, if the Lakers get to even keep that pick. I think it's smoke screen.

Talent in this draft is ridiculous. All of Fultz, Ball Jackson Tatum DSJ Fox Monk Isaac Markkanen Bridges are good players

Fox is so much quickera and faster than Ball. And he also looks like a better shooter.

He's definitely a better shooter. Ball really isn't a great shooter. I haven't been convinced all year that jumper he has will translate.

I have no interest in Fox with a top 4 pick whatsoever. Just can't afford to take another non-shooting guard. That being said, he's been really good for the past few weeks and is dominating Ball right now.

Uninterested. Looks like he can be a solid help and team defender but when it comes to getting down and stopping the man in front of him, I'm not sure how much he cares about that.
and that's "MR. Irrelevant" to you!!

Maybe I'm misunderstanding you, are you saying Fox is the better shooter? Or Ball?

Either way, it's Ball and it's not particularly close.
