2023 NBA Draft Megathread

If there is a Kawhi Leonard esque development curve out there in this class, it's Jarace Walker

Or, you could say that if you liked Patrick Williams a few years ago you should love Walker.

Having a big playmaker who can control the middle of the floor is a big advantage for any offense. Obviously, Jokic, Lebron and Luka are the prime examples, but every team now is looking for a wing-sized playmaker to operate from the top of the key and in. The Celtics even played through Jayson Tatum as their primary initiator, and he isn't really a natural playmaker.

So I can see the argument for Hood-Schifino based on positional value. I just question whether overall he's really big enough or good enough. But the main thing is that he can control space in the middle of the floor.

I wouldn't hate if the Jazz took Coulibaly at #9. I like him as much as Anthony Black, tbh.

my draft

Trade up to 5 and take cam
Or

9) Hendricks/Black/Dick
16) JHS/Wallace/Bufkin or trade down for later and next year pick
28). Klintman/Clowney/Nnaji if took guards. Pods, jones or whitehead otherwise.

Youre not married to any picks? Then don't put prospects that are clearly out ranked. JHS will NOT go top 10...ever.

Ok bud

 

[Thee Jazz Fan]

Sensabaugh is interesting and should be in play at 16. He is a legit three-level scorer.

I like his tape and offensive upside. How’s his defense?

Rmemeber how Cy had GG in the top ten and now he's sitting in the 30s.... more like Cy needs to gtfo

I’m sure a number of actual front offices have done the same. But hey it could be worse. Word has it the jazz had Ball #2 but switched him from second to second round and had Dok take his spot

 

[RandyForRubio]

Jarace Walker would make a heck of a frontcourt with Lauri and Kessler.

The Walker duo must happen.

It's be a call. I think I would take Black, but between Bilal and Hendricks I might swing for Bilal.

I think the hope is he’s more Scottie Barnes… who I think got a tad overrated… not a lot… but when they are like “he’s not on the table if we trade for KD” like calm the hell down.

Any way very good player. Walker could be that I suppose. I like him… just like Hendricks more.

I think Black is closer to being Barnes than Walker.
