Post-lottery mock drafts

post them here


1. 76ers: Brandon Ingram - they have a black hole at SF and their front line will be set with Ingram, Embid and Noel for the next 10 years at least. Oakfur gets traded for another pick next year or something along those lines


Edit : some are saying saric will play the three but I'm not sure he's athletic enough nor a good enough outside shooter. Plus his best asset by far is his rebounding. Even if he could technicaly play the 3, I'm not sure you want him to. I think he's a natural 4 which leaves a void at small forward.


2. Lakers: Ben Simmons - where he wanted to go all along. Randle and Simmons are kinda the same player, but Simmons is better. I wonder what they do with Randle now.


3. Celtics: -Dragan Bender. High upside pick at the position they need the most help at, stretch PF/Center


4. Phoenix - Henry Ellenson. Probably the most screwed of any team in the draft. not high enough to take a franchise player, too low to take the guy that they need fit wise. The next best, 3-4 players are all in positions they don't need. Even if you are a take the best player available guy, you can't have 10 fricking point guards on one team lol. I could see Jaylan Brown but P.J Tucker is a nice piece. They need a power forward. This is the best one on the board. frick it lol


5. Minnosota - Thon Maker. AGain, the best player available, doesn't jibe with what the t wolves need. i believe strongly they will tradet his pick to get a contribute now stretch 4 but if they don't, what do you really do? take a point guard you got 2 already. really 3. take a big man? Thon has an outside touch and can grow into the stretch 4 position. it's a high risk high reward type deal here. But i think they trade the pick


6. Pelicans: Kris Dunn - The real winners of the draft, they have IMHO the best player in the draft fall to 6. This kid is gonna be a star and is gonna help turn the pelicans around with AD. Falls right in their lap.


7. Nuggets: Timothe Luwawu - My personal fav player in the draft. He's a 6'6 with a freak of nature 7'2 wingspan and has an extremely high floor as an elite wing defender, with a decent stroke. above avg athleticism but not a freak athlete. a longer Thabo.


8. Sacramento - Jaylen Brown - They just need good players, and he's the best on the board.


9. Toronto - Buddy Hield - They land a ready now player that helps stretch the floor, also a nice replacement in case LeRozen leaves


10. Bucks: Anthony Barber - The bucks need someone who can stretch the floor and who can guard point guards while the freak runs the show and plays the 3 on defense. This is a guy who can sit out and shoot and do just that. A little high but a good pick for the team


11. Magic - Jamaal Murry - They really have no clear definitive needs, but this is the best player on the board and this is where i think he goes.



12. Jazz - Domantas Sabonis - with no real glaring needs, the Jazz take a safe big mant hat projects to be a long term backup for them to add depth


13. Suns - Skal. The suns are in frick it hit a home run mode trying to get one of these picks to pan out and they take a stab here with Skal who has a very high ceiling


14. Bulls - Tyler Ulis- He's a player even at 5'9. He will be able to run the offense and hit open shots, though defense is gonna be a problem but it's a problem for everyone
