NBA Mock Draft 5.0: Latest Buzz, Rumors and Projections

Cade Cunningham remains the projected top selection, and the top five or six picks have come into focus, but there’s still a great deal of intrigue and anticipation around the NBA going into Thursday night.

Woo article.

So are we thinking of attaching No. 30 to move off Favors and then moving Bogey/Ingles to trade back into the first?

Something’s gotta give this week, just don’t know what yet.

If we can get off Favors money then I doubt we would trade Bogey or Ingles just to get back in the first round. My guess we would look to buy a second round pick.

It's been incredibly sad to watch this organization constantly move picks to offload bad contracts. Kind of makes the draft an empty affair.

Yeah, sucks. Could totally see us just attaching the pick to move Fav, and then just buying a second somewhere.

That would be an epically lame draft week.

It would be nice to start an offseason with the step 1 not being "undo what you did last offseason".

It's got to a weird feeling as a player knowing that you're so overpaid that a team will give you assets to get rid of you.

Imagine if your workplace felt your contribution to the organization was so overpaid that they'll give another company some new vehicles just to take you off their hands.
 
I'll take the reigns of the the Thor bandwagon. I think dude is still an absolute sleeper in this draft. Dying on this hill.

Only you are worthy of holding the Hammer of Thor.
 
There are going to be some very good players taken in the 20s of this draft, something that can't be said every year. If the Jazz were proactive, they could probably move to grab a player who is a good long-term partner for Donovan. If they want to dump Favors' contract, or another contract, they could do it at the deadline when playoff teams are looking for some veteran help.

We desperately need a young player in the pipeline that we can point to... at very least as a replacement for some of the aging vets.

I'm no expert here, but it seems we talk our selves into this kind of sentiment every year around draft time. Maybe we need he who won't be named to give us a year-to-year draft depth comparison/prognostication?
