And then you're at the mercy of the guy you like making it to you. Control your own destiny, move into the 20s and get the guy you want is my thinking. I’m down with it. I at least want to walk away with two drafted players this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Handles look tight in his other videos and that shot is beautiful. He has that hard to describe "Man amongst boys" kinda like Anthony Edwards, just a bit smaller but with a better shot. Wish we could have seen him play at Kentucky, but so did everyone else. I going to go out on a limb and say if the Magic get the number 1 or 2 pick and trade down, this is the guy they are after.

He is making the draft very interesting for us. Could, will, should the FRONT OFFICE be interested? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Could, will, should the FRONT OFFICE be interested? He is projected as a late lottery maybe mid teens pick at the moment, why would anyone trade down from a 1 or 2 pick to 12-16?. Now i would trade a #1 pick for OKC if they get like 3 or 4 and 12, and try and take Sharpe at 12 and maybe Jabari at 3. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I DO NOT WANT CHET, but OKC might want him bad enough to give us both 1st rounders and a future 1st. I'd love to grab Sharpe or Murray wit the 1st one, and either Mark Williams (bye Bamba) or Agbaji with the 2nd one. I'd also like to see us break our pattern and actually use our 2 2nds. Either trade down, or grab a couple more shooters and stash them on our G league team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ultimately, it's up to the FO to go thru their process and master plan to make that determination....one thing in their favor is that the team is in the middle of a TOTAL RE-BUILD and some calculated risks can be taken. Examples of the Best Player from some of the last drafts: 2009 - Steph Curry - Pick 7 2010 - Paul George - Pick 10 2011 - Kawhi - Pick 15 2012 - Anthony Davis - Pick 1 2013 - Giannis - Pick 15 2014 - Nikola Jokic - Pick 41 2015 - Devin Booker - Pick 13 2016 - Ben Simmons - Pick 1 2017 Jayson Tatum - Pick 3 2018 - Luka Doncic - Pick 3 2019 - Ja Morant - Pick 2 2020 - LaMelo - Pick 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
