I would prefer to wait for Tacko Fall, as he has been known to be an exceptionally smart person on top of being a giant. Mamadou could be worth a late first or early 2nd round pick though.

Tacko Fall? Seems like a humble kid, said he came to the staes to major in engineering . These names just keep getting better and better, almost as if they are being randomly generated. We should pair Bender, Stone and Maker just for that reason, it would be like a 2K draft class IRL and generate some buzz

if we have a chance to add a guy named Tacko Fall and we don't do it, McDonough should be fired

Tacko. Fall.

Is he stash-able?

This picture shows him walking down the hall when he was in high school. Wow. BTW. His wingspan is 8'0" and growing.

http://www.nbadraft.net/2016mock_draft

New Draft.net mock was posted today. Buddy Hield up to 3. Sabonis at 7. Rabb at 8.

Skal, D. Davis, Chriss, Brice and Ellenson all available at the WASH pick. Somebody good is going to fall.

Interesting note: They have us taking Thon Maker at 28.

Luwawu was in the lottery on most mocks and now he is 2nd rounder? :O

I think only .net has luwawu as a second rounder. They don't usually have international players very high.

Denver may be able to move up a couple spots with those extra firsts they have.

How would you guys rate the chance that we go all stash on our top picks. Like Bender, Luwawu, Zikic and then Thon Maker at #33 for our D- League.
Then we suck for another year with the same team, get a nice pick on a stashed 2017 draft, and the rebuild is done

If the goal is to suck then why stash? Playing young rookies would help the tank and also make it more bearable to watch.

Rookies might be an upgrade over our current talent level. Think Booker vs. Knight.
