Ive come around on Bryant and Joan. I am pretty sure, with few exceptions, I will be ok with whoever we draft at 15.

He looks awesome. Sign me up as well.

I'm hoping for Jace Richardson at this point. That 42% 3pt shooting looks enticing. And his second half of the season looked real good.

I can see why you want that kind of prospect on a team just due fit reasons, but I still think he wouldnt play single minute under Donovan. Guy is not basketball player, he is just tall person trying play basketball.
His "highlights" dont even look good. And his tools are not even that elite to adjust for lack of overall skill. He is perfect very lae 1st, early 2nd round prospect. Basically place where Gobert was taken.
Come on now.. he isnt basketball player, just tall person trying to play it? Waau.. you went overboard!
I agree #12 is too high for him at this stage, late first , early 2nd its ok.

So we are now in #12 range and in worst case scenario we could end up #15 and out of lottery? That would suck..

Yes, there are many guys already in a league who are there just because they are tall. When Shaq was in a league he made NBA career jobs for good amount of them. Let's not forget if you tall it's also good money and good job to have. Even in his highlights guys struggles basically with catching and holding a ball. Let alone do anything whats actually skill related. This is not disrespect to him. But guy doesnt look like he played too much of basketball in life and just seems started way late because somebody told him there is more money in basketball than volleyball. It's perfect late 1st and early 2nd prospect.
If he loves game he gonna become better but taking lottery pick ticket on guy who has chance 1:100 (I was generous here) to become something is waste of Adam Silver's time to tell his name on stage.

In a perfect world Kasparas Jakucionis would fall to wherever the Bulls select. I don't see him falling past wherever the Heat draft. So at this point, I'm team Ben Saraf. He'll be the perfect playmaker for the second team.
Saraf
Ayo
Huerter
Williams
Collins

He’s underrated. Lots of Ginobili in his game.

He's got to work on his turnovers.

Risky. Could go as high as 15 with great work outs. Could get taken 25th. Will probably be in the G League alot.

I don't get taking a player his size tbh. He's right in that Matas, Giddey size, where we could use some depth but I'm looking for a potential starter. PG or C. Secondary choice would be a defensive big
Our starting point guard is Josh Giddey.
Then what was Tre Jones when he was starting?
They will never use Giddey to defend a pg so there's always a spot there, Ayo, Ball, Jones. But you can see when Giddeys sitting they lack a really good shot creator. Whites better off ball so there's room for someone to fill a "pg" spot in the starting 5. PG, White, Josh, Matas, C.
With that said if there's someone they think is a potential superstar, they need to take him and figure it out later.
Tre Jones was starting because Billy was being silly. I'd rather play Coby against point guards or use a wing. It's not a coincidence that Giddey has really popped with Ayo and Tre out. Let the guy handle the rock. The Bulls lost Ball, Jones and Ayo and got BETTER. Billy needs to get over his blindspot.
That said, if there is a superstar there, take him. I just think the chance of finding an all star point guard out of top 7 has to be exceedingly low. All things equal, I think the Bulls need another forward or wing.

Beringer hype is bizarre. Not even close to a lotto pick.

Warming up to Collin Murray-Boyles.

He’s a risk for sure but that shot and length give him a solid floor.
If he hits and develops body and strength he could be really good.

Jace is good enough to play a catch and shoot role on offense when Giddey is in the game and handles good enough to keep coby at the 2 when he's out. And defensively he can guard opposing PGs quite a bit better than Coby. He needs to stay away from guarding PGs and running the point imo. If they play the Cavs and white has to guard Garland, he's gonna get cooked. Very cooked.

Undersized and an absolute terrible outside shot but they play so much better with him on the floor. He both intrigues and screams flop to me.
