It's kind of feeling like a Fears/Riley draft. I think we like both of them and they should both be available with our picks.

I love Fears and Riley is a really interesting offensive prospect but we do need to draft some defensive players eventually.

It would be pretty impressive to finish 30th in defense three straight years.
If we draft Fears, got to think Collier or Keyonte gets dealt on draft night for another pick in the late teens/early 20s.
Danny/Austin probably looking at Fears like he's the next Kyrie, who they had at one point, minus the Kyrie drama.

The only part of drafting Fears that would make me hesitant would be Collier being undercut pretty bad by it. Would feel bad for him after he played decently well to end the year. Reminds me of the Cavs drafting Garland a year after drafting Sexton. But I think the talent is too good to pass with Fears.
Think Key would be much more likely to be moved than Collier, but Key also doesn’t have to strictly be an on ball player. As long as we move Sexton there will be minutes and touches for everyone, but I’d agree that a Key trade would be much more likely with Fears in house.

Or Keyonte and Collier just get benched further.
Fears is like the ultimate buzz guy. Everyone is interested and linked to him. I wonder if that’s just how his camp has approached the process? I honestly don’t see as much buzz for Tre. But I see more fans for Tre.
What's even the point of a 2nd workout? To discuss apartment options/living arrangements?
Fears would be the best ballhandler since D-Will for the Jazz?
