They are saying Atlanta wants Young and is looking to trade back to take him but they’d potentially grab him at 3 if they have to. They’re fake news Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He seems to be the late riser this year, and might legit be bpa I don’t expect us to draft Knox at 6 but if we trade down he would for sure be on our radar. I like his upside—I just don’t love it at 6. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Since so many mock drafts have us taking Trae this one is probably aimed at us. I trust our FO will not be fooled by this tactic. Dallas praising Porter's workout a week ago on Friday could be an example of another smokescreen. When teams are supposedly talking about who they are interested in it is probably a lie.

A Better DJ & Photographer 450 Report post Posted June 16, 2018 Here's a great question for your opinions. All draft prospects are supposed to be projects but which ones do you feel are ready to step in and play as a starter in the NBA? I think Ayton, Doncic, JJJ, Mikal, Bamba, could pull it off and possibly Sexton, Carter, Williams, and Okobo could too. The rest I don't think are ready defensively to start Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Young isn’t getting drafted that high. There are a solid 7 better prospects than him and he is the highest risk due to questions about his ability to stick. Porter to Dallas has been a thing for weeks. The draft is pretty set at the top imo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A Better DJ & Photographer 450 Report post Posted June 16, 2018 My dream draft: Suns-Ayton Kings-Porter Hawks-JJJ Grizzlies-Young Mavericks-Bamba Magic-Doncic and in the 2nd we grab Carter and Melton and buy or work into a trade a late 2nd to give Brandon McCoy a shot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bad teams don't care I would put bamba on that list. Not that he would play 30 minutes. But a disruptive force to start the game. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
