    Wolves post workouts of Whiteside and pittman and then Draft Express moves Larry Sanders from the Spurs 20th pick to the Wolves 16th pick. There is no record of the Wolves ever working out Sanders yet Givony wouldn't make such a drastic prediction at this late date unless he had some inside skinny. Sanders is impressing at every workout against the likes of Cole Aldrich, Whiteside, Orton, udoh.

    Unless the rockets move up or Cousins drops a whole lot than I like Sanders at 14. It's not longer a reach.

    He would be a good second round pick up...

    I like Dexter Pittman as a longterm back up center, has shown great work ethic as seen through his commitment of losing weight(as a freshman he weighed 370+). If he can get his weight to around 280-290(currently 303) and Improve his conditioning, I can see him becoming a defensive presence of the bench. Plus you can't teach his size at 6'11 with a 7'6 wingspan...

    Its not that, I just really want to move-up in the draft to get Cousins (his post moves, foot work and nimbleness have have me sold on him)...

    But if we do stay at 14th, I would still like Whiteside with our pick... despite what others may say :grin:

    No to Pittman!!! I've never seen somebody so big get hung as much as he has.. It took him 4 years to lose weight and still wasnt that productive
