Honestly think the Cs trade this pick for a veteran bench player.

I also like Brandin Podziemski as the 25th pick. He looks like a Brad player and he can shoot. He looked good in predraft games.

We desperately need an elite shooter ,  that is not a defensive liability

Personally, I'm hoping for a guy who has played a few years in college, is at least 22 years old, and contribute right away. I think there are a lot of those kind of guys on that range that fit the bill...

Jamie Jaquez. G/F. UCLA

Colby Jones. G. Xavier.

Kris Murray. F. Iowa (unfortunately don't think he'll be there at 25)

Marcus Sasser. G. Houston.

Ben Sheppard. G. Belmont.

I'll also be ecstatic if a guy like Nick Smith Jr, who was once a projected top 5 pick, falls to us. It worked with Timelord, and I think at that point in the draft it's a fair swing to take.

I still love Julian Strawther but 25 might be too high to pick him at. I love the shot.

Brandin Podziemski and Jaquez Jr. both seem like fits.

There aren't many strong passers in this draft. Maybe they try to move up a little bit and go after Wallace? Kind of like a smart-lite. Much lighter, but a defensive hustle who is a kind of connective tissue guy.

Feel like drafting a PG is a sure fire signal that PP is probably gone.

Wallace could still slide to 25.

You think? I don't know much about this draft. It is interesting that most of the guards that are in the first round aren't true dribble penetrator types. They are mostly the "bigger" shot making combo guard types. Interesting draft for sure.

There are a lot of solid role players all the way into the late second. We should be able to grab a really solid guy at 25. I wish we had a second round pick too but there will be some decent players that don't even get drafted.

If Wallace fell to 25 I would imagine that PP would be gone.

I feel it's also pretty likely we just use the pick on a vet type guy. It has already been reported we are looking at using the MLE on a vet.

This must be the most exciting off season since the Kyrie/Hayward year. Can’t wait to see what Brad has in store.

The brogden speculation about an injury is concerning.

I think we can grab an NBA ready guy at 25.
