Two picks? You already got Gobert up.


I clarified that all-NBA players could not be taken in first three rounds as well as all-stars.

Steve Kerr. A great shooter, cheap backup guard, works with many cores.

Im taking P.J. Brown here. Great defender, knocks down mid-range Js, can backup either big spots or even start in a pinch and he only costs 7
Fga.

I'll make a transformer pick here. Earlier version is a 30+ MPG elite rebounder and solid defender who can back up both bigs or a late career year with a tiny FGA for a serviceable 8-10 minute guy.

Another flexible pick. Plays three positions and can be used as anything from a cheap backup point to Sixth Man of the Year.
