It's been 9 days since the last one was started. I assume you'll be cool with me picking up this one.

Haliburton to New York.

1. Minnesota: Anthony Edwards
2. Golden State: James Wiseman
3. Charlotte: LaMelo Ball
4. Chicago: Deni Avdija
5. Cleveland: Obi Toppin
6. Atlanta: Isaac Okoro
7. Detroit: Killian Hayes

Okongwo still not picked? Crazy.

yeah there is no way the actual draft follows this line with top 5 locks like Okongwu available and fringe top 8 options like Obi and Halli gone before now
I voted for big O and DV

BPA Okongwu

I choose Okongwu and other (Saddiq Bey).

Washington has an outstanding offense between Beal, Hachimura, Bertrans, Bryant and Ish Smith. If Wall can get back to 80% of what he was defensively and not be a drain on the offense the team will be one top notch rim protector from challenging Indy for the 6 seed imo.

If I were Washington I'd look to trade up as high a 5 or 6 I'd be willing to give up an indefinitely top 5 protected pick to draft Onyeka or Wiseman I'd also try to get back a late first or an early second or two.

Something like
#9 + future 1st
For
#6 + 2021 ATL 2nd

It would be crazy if Okongwu actually slipped this far in the draft, but clearly is can happen. Someone is going to get super lucky if he goes all the way to 9.

Washington is positioned great in the draft to pick up whomever falls. Okongwu vs Vassell is a great problem to have.

Okongwu or RJ for me here, two BPAs by a clear margin, and good fits for Washington.

Poku HM as well

yea this is a really good spot for you guys, right in the middle of where the value is in this draft.

There will probably be a couple guys falling just because this is one of those drafts where those first couple of picks can be a couple different players not even projected in the lottery. I think the Suns also have a pretty good chance of getting someone falling.
