What happened to Sarr? We like no one from the draft all of the sudden?

Playing in Australia so hard to keep tabs and he has some stinkers lately

Its a flaming doodoo bag at the moment. I think I will like Collier but I'm not hyped about him.

Collier is great, but he's 6'3 with a 6'4 wingspan

Keyonte looks like the truth as a PG. I would hate to pair him with a smaller ball dominant player.

lol. Cy making up measurements again. it's kind of adorable, tbh.

Yea a Collier Keyonte backcourt might not be enough

Keyonte and Giddey is the way.

Bookmark it man. His listed wingspan is 6'4. That's not made up. If you want to believe he is 6'5, go for it, but he is clear under 6'4.

I think they could play together but obviously not ideal.

Obviously, but Collier is more or less equal to about 10 other guys in this draft, most of which fit Utah better.

I’m kinda out on Giddey. Not like he sucks but I hat his value is around the league is likely quite a bit higher than I’d go. Right now I feel great about Key as pgotf and Lauri as the huge building block. I am confident Kessler is a great piece to build with as well but if you found an elite option there you can replace him. I would plan around that for now with the other building blocks.

I think he’s gonna end up clearly top 3 but that is completely thin slicing at this point. Hopefully Buzelis is good when he gets on the court or the French kid shows out. Sarr is kinda meh for me cuz I don’t really believe in the jumper developing. The idea of Holland is good but he is playing horribly and I have some concerns about the ignite system right now.

Some guys will show out here and I’ll find someone but it’s stinky thus far.

He started the season really bad. But I actually watched him yesterday against the Spurs and damn can that dude pass, good size, always trying to get out and run. I agree that he’s probably too expensive if he were available at all. But I really like him as a player especially on this team.

It's just going to be a lot of dudes who are more or less equally talented and evaluating who rises to the top will be difficult.

I hate drafting high in these drafts because hype will often get in the way of proper scouting. "Oh everyone is pretty equal, so we have to take the guys who were projected high early".

Id still firmly take Sarr #1 overall because I think you have to draft for ceiling at the #1 pick.

Outside of that, Tyler Smith is probably my #2 guy currently. He's not an elite prospect, but he's kind of better at everything that Hendricks does in more of a wings body/fluidity so I see higher upside for on ball creation.
