well that goes without saying that drafting a big in the top 10 is a huge risk, especially when you do it almost entirely on potential.


What do you even get out of it? We've seen it over and over again. they take 3-4 years to develop, and if they ever do then they get a massive contract, then that team wants to unload them 3 years later b/c they are vastly overpaid.

SPend your money and draft assets on PG's and wing players. The MLE is for role playing big men that fit with your wings.

For the most part, I agree. That's why I'd prioritize Wagner, Moody, Barnes, Ziaire, etc. Good wings in this league cost a premium so your best bet is to try to get those guys on draft night and hope you can develop them. Kai Jones is an exception to me because I think he's the highest ceiling guy outside of the consensus top 5 and has shown the ability to be a lot more than just a rim runner.
