Before this would be useful, the questions to answer are: What would we have to give up to get #1? How deep is our tier 1 on our draft board? 1, 2, 3, 4, 5? Would it better to burn assets for a pick this year or kick the can down the road to have assets when good veterans become available
since this draft is so flat and a guy picked at #34 has a good chance to be better than the guy picked at #12, is buying an early 2nd or moving up in the 2nd a bad idea (provided the cost is low)? Hate the top of this draft but late 1st/early 2nd will have some good players. There’s potentially real value there. Someone we have ranked #15 on our board could be there at #34 for example.
Smart, let's waste asset to move up in a draft that's known to be weak. Sarr is not even a 1st overall in a tradition draft.
It's not Senguns potential that's the problem. His potential is through the roof. Its his fit in Udokas system that's the problem. A defensive big man fits the system better.
Trade Sengun +future pick for #1. Draft Sarr then draft Sheppard at 3. Trade up in the 2nd round or late 1st to draft Chomche. Now your team is battle ready.
Wow a 7 footer than can dunk and block short guy shots. I see nothing special. If he falls to 3 then sure take him and see if he can develop a dependable 3 pt shot and put on enough weight to not get abused by nba forwards and centers. No way I would give up anything to move up and get him. Dillinger, Shephard, Topic, Castle would all be better picks.
