Hard pass. These lanky 7 footers are so unbelievably injury prone now a days. These are the guys that are going to be available (probably) with the Kings pick..Nickeil Alexander-Walker: yes. Really good two way guard. Comparison - Arron Afflalo/Wesley Matthews.Rui Hachimura: yes. Fiery competitive PF who plays bigger than his size. Great team player, good attitude. Comparison - Thaddeus Young/Wilson ChandlerJaxson Hayes: No. Impressive shot blocker, limited offensively. Sounds like a guy we drafted last year. Comparison - Lesser Hassan Whiteside.Brandon Clarke: No. same deal as above, shorter version. Comparison - Tyrus Thomas.Jontay Porter: Yes. Could have been a Top 10 pick if he didn’t miss this year due to injury. Big man who can really stroke it. Good fit for Stevens system. Comparison - Brad Miller/Channing FryeSekou Doumbouya: Torn. The epitome of a risky pick. Really young and likely years away from contributing. Could be the next Pascal Siakam or the next Jerome Moiso. There will be at least 3 guys who are safer picks at that spot.
Bol Bol has been discussed quite a bit on here. He's out for the college season with a navicular bone fracture like Embiid had. On a pod cast, Sam Vecenie had him at 14. Called him very talented but questioned his effort and work ethic. Bol Bol will also need to add significant weight and strength.
You don't want good not great players since we already have too much and is easy to sign minimum veterans/ring chasers anyway, you want to take a swing at those high potential players
