Would be extremely disappointed with Troy Brown anywhere before 20. Have Thomas here - can't really go wrong with combo of wing span, elite D, and 3 pt shot, but tough to pass on Robert Williams.

Same here. It's a tough pass on Williams because he probably is the better player, but with the way the game is now, unless the big can shoot or just has incredible dimensions. i.e., Bamba or Gobert, a guy like Thomas is my choice.

I'm so glad we're not picking down here. I think there's a clear drop-off after around 13 or 14.

(Now watch Mitch trade down from 11 to 18 to get rid of salary.)
Who I woulda took:
2023: Miller | 2022: Duren | 2021: Bouknight, Jones | 2020: Ball | 2019: PJ | 2018: MPJ | 2017: Monk | 2016: Damian Jones | 2015: Winslow | 2014: Vonleh, Napier | 2013: McLemore | 2012: MKG | 2011: Knight, Kawhi

Troy averaged about pick 23 in the stuff I looked at a while back. Dean on Draft had him at 14 and was definitely an outlier.
My picks:
2020 Draft (3rd pick) - Tyrese Haliburton, Devin Vassell, or Onyeka Okongwu
2021 Draft (11th pick) - Moses Moody
