Any chance Dario Saric goes #6 to the Pelicans? Or would they only draft him if they trade back?


Chad Ford (1:15 PM) Yes and yes. There are a handful of teams that believe Saric is a top five talent in the draft. I believe the Pelicans are one of them. So, yes, if the guys they have ranked ahead of him are all gone, I do think they'd take him at 6. However, they could probably trade down to a pick like 9 or 10, pick up an asset and still get him. The scouts that REALLY know Europe say that there's not a huge difference between Saric and Otto Porter.

Starting to like the Saric pick more...

Interesting.

IF they really do want him, it would be nice to be able to move back a few spots and still get him.

We know that Dell has been pushing to drastically improve the Euro scouting since his arrival, and he is from the SA Tree. So...
