Even if it’s a lot of money, at least you have a core for the next 3 years without worrying. Especially if all them work together and are worth it. Plus you can sign a vet since they are all on rookie contracts. I rather have a RFA than a UFA.

Ziaire Williams. 6’8 wing with good athleticism. Has amazing playmaking and defensive potential.

There's your cam reddish clone with 4 years of cost control.

Ziare Williams is 30 lbs less and has less than a 3 inch wingspan compared to Cam Reddish.

It's behind the ESPN paywall, but apparently the new mock draft has us drafting Cam Thomas

I'm biased due to LSU, but I would love Cam Thomas coming off the bench for the Pels. He reminds me a lot of Buddy Hield coming out of college.


Not a very good comparison, tbh. Hield was an old prospect who shot 46% on 3PTers his last season. Thomas is a young prospect who shot 33%. Hield had shown he could make smart decisions, Thomas might develop a smarter game. Thomas has more upside but is a bigger risk as well.

The one I want the most that will realistically be there at 17. Shooting and defense potential. I actually like him more than Kispert.

Big fan. Great size and good athleticism which means lineup versatility. Elite shooting split. Also seems like a high character person that was not highly recruited but put in the work. Would not be upset at all if he's the choice at 17. Man how I wish he was still underrated though. He was projected as a mid 2nd when I first heard about him 2 or 3 months ago. The more people look at him the higher he rises.

If one likes Moody I think they should be on Murphy. 3 & D with the length and more athleticism.

Another North Carolina kid to go with Zion and Ingram

I’ve been going down a rabbit hole on him this evening.

I’ve seen him play but never really thought about him for us. I like him from what I’ve been watching. If we actually make a pick at 17 he makes a ton of sense.

Who did the Grizzlies move up to No. 10 to draft? Per sources, the Grizz REALLY like Franz Wagner. Not sure he’s there at 10. If he’s not … Ziaire Williams or Josh Giddey are two other prospects the Grizz are high on.

And what about the Pelicans at No. 17? They’ll target Kyle Lowry in free agency which likely rules out a point guard Hearing Trey Murphy & Corey Kispert are likely targets at 17

I know they worked out Trey Murphy, so he’s definitely on their board.
