    That means they’re taking Scoot for sure

    I feel like KOC gets used by his sources – he seems like the reporter with the least caution

    Yeah just like how last year everyone was certain that Bari was going #1? I’ll believe it when I see it

  6. You don’t draft for fit with the no.2 pick. That’s how GSW ended up with wiseman.

    I swear all this talk is to just boost the trade value of Portland’s pick.

    Makes tonnes of sense. They already have a franchise cornerstone guard in LaMelo.

    Ant + 3 + Filler for Siakam is a ready made reboot. Get it done Masai.

    wings are the most important position nowadays so i get it but we’ll see.

    Often times “all indications” are “this is what other mock drafts are saying”.

    I think Miller makes a lot of sense for them though, so wouldn’t be shocked. If that leaves Scott at 3, and we decide on go in on that trading Pascal for 3+Simons+whatever else, i’m fine with that too.

    If scoots available at 3 raptors gotta make move

    This isn’t a “new” report. It’s just a leftover note from O’Connor’s mock draft which piggybacks off his report from the draft combine.

    What would be the point of leaking this if it was a smokescreen? Charlotte has no reason to lie, and if a team specifically wants scoot then they’d just wait until Miller is picked before trading with Portland. That Portland trade isn’t happening until draft day imo.

    This is basically like leaking the first overall pick, since wemby is 100% #1.

  13. motherseffinjones

    They are drafting scoot, this just feels like a smoke screen

  14. Wild-Yesterday2819

    I guess we’ll have to wait until draft night to see if Scoot makes his debut as a Hornet!

  15. Wild-Yesterday2819

    I’m not sure if Scoot is ready for the big leagues yet, but hey, anything can happen!

  16. prodigus01

    Close the deal Masai! high-level prospect ripe for the picking

    Brandon Miller is the more versatile player and is easily the prototypical dream for an unstoppable wing scorer and defender.

    Scoot Henderson is awesome and can be a game changer in his own right but one injury would set him back a ton because a huge part of his game is aerial supremacy. When I watched a few Ignite games + his highlights; I couldn’t help but notice he falls awkwardly a TON and he falls very HARD.

    Brandon Miller’s area of concern isn’t on court but off court – if he turns out to be another Ja Morant type case where circumstances surrounding guns, cops keep on popping up.
