    I wouldn't make a guess even if u gave me 10 bucks to make right prediction. It's simply impossible to know what Morey gonna do, there's ton of kids he can draft, you don't know who's gonna still be available and such. And how can you know all them kids? Are you guys scouts or just copycating Chad Fords

    We trade back from 18 to the early-mid twenties and draft Rashad Vaughn out of UNLV

    Trade the pick... being that close to a championship will motivate getting a PG through trade.

    Assuming no trades, which is a horrendous assumption:
    18 - Tyus
    32 - Connaughton

    I said this at the deadline and wouldn't be surprised if it still happened, just not sure what it would cost.

    I love Grant as a ND fan, but I'm not sure the Rockets will target him. Morey said that he targets players with high ceilings, not immediate impact, because you can always find middle of the pack role players through free agency.

    He has several other things he looks for:

    Undervalued players based on being undersize
    Unusually good at a particular skill
    Above average size for a position
    Continuous improvement
    Success in pressure situations

    Also, the current team needs a solid role player at PG not necessarily a star and if that player is there I think he takes him.

    My vote is for Grant at 18
    I hope Justin Anderson or Kelly Oubre make it to us at 32

    Jerian Grant or Justin Anderson and if we don't draft a guard i bet DM makes a trade or picks a decent one up via FA
