Would they have any interest in Isaac or Cole?

I would love to grab Jabari + Sharpe.

Holy cow the excitement going into next season would be next level if we pulled that off!
If you want 4 without giving up 1, you have to give Franz. He's the only player on this roster with that value.

After watching a few recently released HS videos, he has dropped out of my top 10. Unless he blew me away in a private workout, I couldn’t take him 5-10. There is no way I would take him top 5 for sure. For context, I had him as my #3 prospect as mid-April.

You had him as #3 prospect as mid-April but watched HS footage and he's suddenly lower on your draft board, what sense does that make?

Anywho, the kid upside is high!

It’s bizarre he has a crazy vertical but the most important part of a good driving guard is his first step and his is not great at all. He is extremely raw just think we don’t need to risk him
Fine print disclaimer for Fultz:
I am high on Markelle Fultz. Yes I understand he is not perfect and needs to shoot more and better and turn the ball over less. I would really like to see him play one more year… and I did and he sucks time to move on.

Same. Nothing pops off the screen for me. I won't say he's not top 10, but as a fan with severely limited info, he's not in consideration for #1.

Better kill workouts.

If Sacramento use their pick on him it could be his best fit. He could become a Klay-type backcourt partner for Fox and Sabonis if it all works out. Less pressure for him to be put on ball from day 1.

It’s possible that he has made tremendous leaps over the last year but I saw videos of a kid with sus handles, lackluster defense, and a streaky shot with poor FT shooting. I had him at 3 based on the fact that multiple sites had him as the #1 prospect. After watching some of his high school footage, I’m not as high on him as others anymore. Changing your opinion based upon additional information should be what all human beings do… instead of dismissing information that doesn’t align with our original stance. The world would be a much better place if we could all do that. The kid does have high upside. I would still take him in the lotto but unless he kills private workouts, he shouldn’t go top 6 IMO.

And-1

For me Bennedict Mathurin is still the #1 SG in this draft and Johnny Davis is still the safest choice. And if swinging for the fences, I love what Dyson Daniels is doing up to the draft. That means I have Shaedon Sharpe as no more than the 4th best SG prospect in this draft, in my opinion. That is NOT Mr. 5-star. Heck: even Ochai Agbaji could be higher on the Magic's draft board over Sharpe (if the metric is "Athleticism").

This is the dumbest article I’ve read in a minute.
Go work him out genius.

Jesus...This has to be either some fake quote to get some views with no noise atm or this executive needs a different role.
