2023 NBA Draft Megathread

I really hope the Jazz can trade up. I don’t see Hendricks or certainly Whitmore being there at 9 and I’m losing my excitement for Wallace and Dick. Not been sold on Anthony Black either.

The Jazz have to hit on a pick this year. Have to.
WE WILL GET HENDRICKS
 
I think I'm in the boat that many of us seem to be where I like the projected top 8 quite a bit better than what comes after. If worse comes to worse, any consensus on Wallace V Black? My impression is I'd be slightly happier with Black, but low certainty.

I’d probably take Black at 9 if my expected top 8 are gone. That could easily change a month from now though.

Black for sure but Wallace is in my top-11.
 
Interesting mock draft exercise between Sam Vecenie and Adam Spinella.

I've been thinking a lot lately about the possibility of Ausar falling to us at 9th. I would be very excited if it ended up happening.

Someone has to reach for Black, Dick or Wallace in the top 8. Hopefully, the Jazz don't slip to #10 in the lotto.

I’ve seen a lot of these. Amen is getting mocked over Miller pretty much in all of these.

Relax we are getting the top pick
