I'm going to call my shot and say that Keegan Murray

    Wins ROY.

    I like him. I wouldn't mind signing Ivey and seeing if we could trade up for him. He'd fit with the Rockets really well playing off ball.

    Hmm not a bad bold prediction. I like Keegan and there is something to be said about production and development before the draft. Just depends where he lands and if they give him the ball in his role.

    I'd say Paolo or Ivey (Jabari if he's featured heavily) may take it but you never know.

    Look how Barnes turned out. Defense is certainly a factor.

    I'd say Barnes was a better passer/playmaker, but it will be interesting to see how Keegan translates his game in the NBA.

    I didn't want his stock to rise so high and wanted to trade up for him early in the year. Him or Eason I was a fan of early, we'll see what happens.

    Lol Barnes is 6'9 with shoes and has long ass arms and is extremely athletic. Keegan Murray is likely 6'7 with shoes and has short arms. Didnt even go to the draft combine to get measured.

    I'm gonna be really surprised if he pops off in the NBA.

    He might be the surprise of this draft. Got a polished game but it's tough for me to find an NBA comparison for him. I see a little-bit of Paul Millsap in him.

    He has got some Play Thompson to his game with better handles. DeRozan type motor with a better 3 ball. DeAndre Hunter with better board skills. Very similar to Khris Middleton, imo.

    I think the Kings are going to pick Murray, and Ivey falls to #6

    I think he is most likely to drop in the draft.
