2022 NBA Draft Thread: We Going to Have a Pick! (lmao jk)

Based on the guys that we worked out I doubt that we acquire a 1st but I could see us buying 1, possibly 2 2nd round picks.

Moore is one of the most underrated players in the class. Won't ever be a star but he's someone that will have a long NBA career.

6'6" 217 with a 7'0" wingspan and was Duke's primary ball handler/best perimeter defender last season. He's also a guy that has been through adversity after a disappointing start to his college career. One of the few players you'll see that saw a major leap in both production and efficiency at the same time from one year to the next.

If there's a big guard in this draft who gets picked in the late 1st or early 2nd round, but then goes on to have a big two-way impact and play both on and off the ball (a bit like Desmond Bane), I think Moore could be that guy. He has at least fringe starter potential.

I may end up really wrong, but I am not a believer in Murray. He seems way too vanilla. I would take the other 4 before him.

I think he's a complementary scorer, functionally similar to a Harrison Barnes or a TJ Warren. He's a bit smoother off the dribble than Barnes though, imo. He can average maybe 17/6/3 and have some big nights.

He reminds me of a watered down Iggy.

I have very little interest in the draft this year since we don’t have a pick. So no obsessive checking of mock drafts and youtube videos this time. Based on 15 minutes of doing that today, if we do end up with a decent pick in a trade my guy is Jeremy Sochan. Great size, great defender, good playmaker. Shooting stats don’t look great, but his form is decent. Seems like a good dude too. My completely uninformed opinion is that he has the potential to be something special.

But Jaden Ivey is a “small guard”.

He's 6'4" with a 6'9" wingspan, lol
