2024 NBA Draft Mega Thread

Kind of surprised Mitchell hasn't signed the extension yet. What domino is he waiting for?

He just found out Knicks were willing to give up 5 firsts for Bridges. Give him a couple days to recover.

Lol. I meant Castle (mixed up Steph with Shep).

Ah, any guard with as severe as shooting concerns as Castle has bust potential.

For me, I just like watching Castle play, I'm a fan. I can see him putting it all together and being the best prospect out of this draft, but it won't super surprise me if he struggles. I still think his more likely lower outcome is way higher than Forrest, but I also don't think it's that hot of a take.

I bet the nets make at least 2 more moves over the draft.

I think he’ll be a solid two-way contributor, even if he has some limitations. I just don’t think his ceiling is actually that high.

My top-3 realistic targets where we are is Cody, Dilly, and Carter.

 

[Elizah Huge]

Obviously would love to trade up for Shep or Castle.

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

I would trade up for Williams.

Is there anyone that would be super upset if we picked Carter at 10? Just curious, seems like it might be the one thing all of Jazzfanz agrees on.

I hope we take Carter and after the pick JZ calls a press conference where he reveals his big board. When he pulls down the cover there is only one name Devin effing Carter.

Don't think he has many detractors, he's easy to like. I tried playing devils advocate the other day, but in the end that process led me to move him up even higher.

I think the concern would be that he's only 6'3 and his shooting/playmaking are still a little iffy.

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

I think Topic is the most realistic guy I would be a bit unhappy with. Partly because you don't get to see them until next year or late in the season. I need instant gratification please.

it would be hard to be upset with a carter selection at 10 - he's too good in too many areas. that said, i'm not as bullish on him as most. i'm not sure i trust his shooting and i don't love his fit next to keyonte - makes for a really small backcourt. also, he's old. when he was the age of a lot of the guys he's up against, he averaged 9 ppg on 26% from three as a freshman - and he was actually older as a frosh than some of these OADs.
