Thanks for setting this up tide.

So I think we left off all agreeing that Tre Mann, Giddey, Sengun and Dosunmu were the steals of the draft and we need to do whatever we can to get 3 of them. Right?

Why you so concerned? :lol:

His agent is probably hearing a baseline of where he's going and he feels comfortable about it. He has a desired skillset in the NBA currently.

lol cuz I wanna see if he can raise his stock up enough to dislodge bouknight as our current "flavor of the week" pick.

Im stanning for both of them but tbh, I think Wagner is better for us long term.

He probably realised he needed to put some time aside to make a mix tape of dunks to get draft fans excited. Typical smart move by a smart kid.

How’s this for non-consensus?

Assuming the FO doesn’t trade the 2nd round pick 10 minutes before the draft starts…

Josh Christopher and Quentin Grimes are two guys who I haven’t dug into a whole lot, but they look good on the surface.

Who’s done a deep dive on them that they’d like to share?

Yeah, I really hope WeHam take a draft and stash with the 2nd rounder rather than ditching it outright like previously if they feel they’re too young already.

I like them both. I just have a hard time believing this FO will take a swing on them later in the draft based on their history.

I like Davion Mitchell's defense on Cade. He makes him look over rated.

Newest Mock

Barnes goes at 4 to Toronto

Magic get Kuminga at 5 and Sengun at 8.

Suggs to OKC at 6.

Moody and Bouknight go at 10 and11.

Magic could also be trading down with the Knicks.
8 for 19 & 21.
Magic grab Thor and McBride or Trey Murphy and Hyland.

Nobody knows.

6f3 PG with 6f9 wingspan





6f10 SF with 7f0 wingspan
