2026 NBA Draft Thread

[Celtics2021]

No trades yet?  That feels surprising.

Thunder now have 3 bigs that would be numbers 1s for most other teams.

We have Queta and Garza. SMH

[Who]

I love Landeborg for GSW. They needed more forward depth especially a big forward. He could be great for them. Older rookie. NBA ready game. Ready to help them immediately.

F: Jimmy Butler, Gui Santos
F: Draymond Green, Yaxel Landeborg
C: K Porzingis, Al Horford, Quintin Post

Nice frontcourt assuming they keep Porzingis.

[Who]

So Milwaukee's frontcourt is now

F: Jaime Jaquez, Nate Ament
F: Kyle Kuzma, Ousmane Dieng
C: Myles Turner, Kel'el Ware

They have Ryan Rollins at PG.

Loads of SGs. Tyler Herro (combo guard), Brayden Burries, AJ Green, Kasparas Jakucionis, Gary Trent Jr, Gary Harris. 6 two guards.

Idk what it is, but Shams live on the air and in the broadcast just isn't good. Woj I feel was better in this role, even if he felt "nerdy" and just there providing updates. He still had a bit of charisma. Shams just looks like an awkward dude sitting there uncomfortably and providing nothing of substance.

ESPN really just botch that Dirk segment?

[Who]

Where does Steinbach fit in with Charlotte?
Is he a PF or C?

F: Miles Bridges, Grant Williams, T Salaun
C: M Diabate, R Kalkbrenner

Is Steinbach meant to be an upgrade over G-Will?
Or more of a skilled center vs the 2 defensive centers?

They have botched this entire broadcast. Malika Andrews is simply dreadful.

[Phantom255x]

This has been pretty uneventful so far. Wouldn't rule out a minor trade or trade to move draft spots, but it seems Jaylen, Murphy, etc. are staying put

We have Queta and Garza. SMH

They also still have Thomas Sorber who was drafted at 15 last year and missed the entire year with an injury.

They may also be losing Hartenstein tho, given their tax constraints.

[Phantom255x]

I hope the C's get either Veesaar, Reed Jr, Quaintance or Ejiofor

All of them still available!

Would be shocked if they do not keep Hartenstein this year.  He is incredibly important to what they do.  Drafting Mara does signal to me that they will probably not come to a long-term deal, however.

Would gladly take Hartenstein in Boston.
