Outlandish and blasphemy.  We have three very good guards and a decent prospect in Rozier.  If Ball and Fultz are way ahead as prospects, then we should draft one of them if we end up with a top two pick.  But I'm hoping Tatum or Jackson stand out as that's a better team fit.



 But you just said it. "I'm hoping Jackson and Tatum stand out, there a better fit"

 And there lies the issue. The top three prospects are all guards. Point guards to be exact.

 Although both Fultz and Ball are very athletic and long so they have defensive flexibility at least.

Are you sure about this, or is this your opinion? I don't think there is a consensus #1, esp before conference championships and March madness. The top young guys are freshmen, and coming out of HS, there wasn't one that stood out completely. I still think there's a group of good freshman, and Fultz barely has the lead over Lonzo Ball.




 It's my opinion, and it's what Draft Express says.

 Look the point guards might not get selected one two three. Fultz is going first and Ball second most likely, and Philly will take either Fox or Smith JR.

 Really though. The thread title is true.

 No Bradley and we are absolutely garbage. Thomas is the only guard left who can get buckets.

 We suck with Bradley out and he's fragile.
