Has everyone else spent the last 45mins scouring the interwebs for the draft profiles of the best shooting/scoring SG's with good size in the 2021 draft class as well?


The 2021 draft is loaded at guard with Cade Cunningham at the top being Ben Simmons with a 3 point shot

Tons of wings in next year's class. Also if we get 1 then we draft Cade and figure something else out with Lamelo.

The trades never happen every single year. I still like talking about our trade options, but I stopped expecting much trade activity.
