Call your shot now on what happens tonight. Let's see who does best:

From my intel, I know a few things:

1. Priorities are guys who can defend multiple positions and/or who can shoot.
2. They would ideally like one NBA ready guy and one project if they keep the two picks (might sell #52)

So, my guess is Dillon Brooks at 40 and Kobi Simmons at 52. What you got?

Well we don't have a point guard or a backup so let's start there? How about Juwan Evans from OSU- I like him to be our backup for a few years.

40 and 52 traded to move up for Wesley Iwundu

(alternatively, both picks traded to move the contracts of Ajinca/QPon)

They like Cook more than Frazier. So, if you thought Frazier was a backup PG and we had that position on lock before the trade, just know it is still on lock.

I like the Dillon Brooks pick. I would guess they trade both picks in an attempt to get into the 30's for whomever they are looking at. Even with as thin as our roster is, it's very difficult to believe we would bring in two second round picks. Beyond that, who knows.

We should leak a picture of Malik Monk smoking a gas mask bong and watch him fall into our hands.

Pipe dream that Ivan Rabb takes a nice fall to 40.

Sell 52? Not that it could be expected to be a difference maker, but I thought they were so sold on this draft that they wanted 2 picks. The guy I hope starts to drop is Ferguson. If we could somehow find a way to grab him if he falls to the 2nd, he would be a nice fit. Otherwise-

40)Hart
52)Bolden

Trade both to dump QPon for a 2018 2nd - thinking Brooklyn or Atlanta

Or if they draft

40 - Iwundu
52 - Euro Player to Stash

40) Monte Morris
52) Davon Reed

Chances are though that they trade the picks to dump contracts or move up in the draft.

No, I said weeks ago that they wanted two ROOKIES. Now, they can both be draft picks or you can go the UDFA route and/or overseas

They want one guy who has a shot at being a rotation player this year and one project, similar to Buddy and Diallo last year. They like that formula and will try to replicate much later in the draft or with undrafted guys

Because of the d league roster rule this year, wouldn't an undrafted guy be more "useful"?

If we had our own G League team, definitely. Because we don't, we don't really get to develop as much as we'd like

Aren't we getting a GLeague team? What season is that supposed to kick off? I thought this one.

Shoot your shot:

40: Damyean Dotson - Sr. with a 6' 9" wingspan who shot 44% from 3 pt range last season.

52: Sold to the GSW.
