Buy all the second round picks. Didn't someone say Hedge Fund owners had a good year because of COVID? Spend that cash bitches.

Oturu. Hinton.

Need to stay in the second for salary purposes.

I think he should be a consideration at 42 if he's still there. I imagine a PG or C will be BPA though.

Where is Yam projected to go?

Anywhere in the 2nd round. I think ESPN had him in the 50s last I checked. He absolutely could be in play for our pick (though I don't know if he plans to come over right away and we need our draft picks to be available).

Would be fine with Yam at #60 as a draft and stash. I personally don't think he's an NBA player.

So they have 42, 60 and then others if they choose to buy them?

Is there a list somewhere here of the interviews the Bucks have had?

I would be really happy with one of Winston or Quickley or Elijah Hughes at 42. Buy another pick and get two of them.

Old article about how it's not a good idea to sell 2nd round picks. Which means L&E should buy as many as they can afford.

Give me Nico and Markus Howard*

*Those are the only 2 names I recognize since i dont watch college basketball.

I like a lot of guards who may fall to pick 42: Riller, Flynn, Mannion, Winston, Pritchard. I think there's a decent chance to find a solid backup PG in that bunch. My question is how much do the Bucks think of Frank Mason? Do they think he can take on a bigger role?

Outside of the PG group, I think they need to get really lucky (Bey, Stanley, Ramsey) or move up to find a contributor.

Not an official list per se, but some of the guys I know of are:

Tre Jones
Grant Riller
Tyrell Terry
Daniel Oturu
Markus Howard
Deni Avdija
Immanuel Quickley

Really hope they get some wing athleticism.

Stanley is my number one guy but I think he goes a little higher than 42. Ive campaigned for him before but Jay Scrubb is maybe even a better prospect. Hearing Portland likes him a lot.

Hard pass on any professional athlete whose actual name is "Scrubb".

Rstuedes24 · Post #2017 » by **Rstuedes24** » Tue Nov 17, 2020 6:07 pm

Any chance Ramsey falls to 42? Would take him there, Riller too.

Markus at 60?

Chuck Diesel · Post #2018 » by **Chuck Diesel** » Tue Nov 17, 2020 6:07 pm

If Tillman is there at #42 the Bucks will take him.

Does Markus get drafted? I think he would be worth trying to buy a late pick for if we don’t think he makes it quite to 60
