2021 NBA Draft Preview (new thread)

I'd keep #30 and see if we can buy into the 2nd round. Pels, Thunder or Pistons should be willing to move off of one of their picks. That said, the Pels or Thunder might do the deal you're describing if they want to be sure to grab someone at #30.

That is my option #1.
If we can't buy into the 2nd round, Cy's idea of trading #30 for two later in the 30's is a good idea in my opinion. I would definitely target Herb Jones with one of the picks.

Yeah, he isnt a NBA player.
Jason Preston is another interesting name. I dont know a lot yet, but stats and body wise he's pretty comparable to Lonzo Ball.
NBA Draft confidential: Coaches, execs discuss Cade Cunningham, debate Jalen Green vs. Jalen Suggs, sleepers
In a draft known for exceptional guards, who stands above the rest? David Aldridge polled his sources for their takes.

MY favorite thing about the whole "mystery executive" quotes is that it shows you that anyone can be a NBA FO member.
FWIW, I really liked Benedict Mathurin for the Jazz in this draft.

I don’t watch college hoops anymore, really, so I don’t know much about the prospects, but two names that intrigue me, and not sure why they aren’t more hyped on mock drafts.
Scottie Lewis and Makur Maker.
Lewis is a 6-5 guard that seems athletic and looks like he could be a monster on defense.
Makur has unreal physical attributes, 7footer with the skill set of a guard who is a decent 3 pt shooter.
I’m not in this thread all that often, so sorry if they’ve been discussed. Will they be in the jazz range? Are they good? Tell me.

I know the shooting needs a ton of work, but I like Daishen Nix.

i like this idea but why would OKC want a 4th first-round pick unless they use their other 3 picks to move up. More likely they would be willing to give up one of their seconds for cash and a future second.
Why would you ask a question you answered yourself?
They would be consolidating two worse assets to get a higher one. Then they could use that to further consolidate or do w/e. I think that kind of trade is something pretty logical and has historical precedent.
This kind has Thor going lottery at 13.
Christopher at 30, which I support.
