Leonard Miller absolutely. He has tremendous upside as a slasher and playmaker and good on the defensive end. His jumper sucks tho.
Instead of Bilal, I’d rather take GG Jackson and for 51, I guess Emoni Bates?
Personally feel like there’s a big drop off right before our picks. Might need to trade up a couple spots to get a real impact player. Also fascinated to see if we focus on youth/potential or players who are more NBA ready.
These articles are kind of fun to read, but I don’t think they often predict much past the first ten picks or so.
We are almost certainly not making both of those picks at those slots
Tankathon has us selecting Rayan Rupert, who we’ve been linked to. Marks scouted him in NZ. I would love to take a gamble on Adama Sanogo from UConn in the second round. I get he’s undersized but he’s solid in the post
I’m sold on Leonard Miller, hes a monster rebounder, great defender and he’s a good ball handler for his size.
not so sure on Bilal. I want a point guard or a Center, not another shooting guard
