LolDraft Express puts Thon as the 40th pick.
Malik Pope's declared for the draft, no agent.
The NBA combine's May 17th and players have til 10 days after that to withdraw.
Also a jackpot scenario could be Henry Ellenson falling to the pick. He's not a perfect match because he's just about exactly Trey Lyles size, maybe a half an inch taller. He's a better rebounder and shotblocker for sure and he's more used to playing 5, he'd be a seamless fit at PF next to Favors, Gobert or Withey too.

I believe he's got some Kevin Love to his game, his handle/faceup game is really something for a player his size too. He and Lyles with Burks off the bench could really attack the basket from the perimeter aggressively
Davis is interesting but I like Skal better, I'm waiting for measurements and workouts though to really decide. I haven't ruled Stephen Zimmerman out yet either.

I guess if i want a true post score diamond stone would be that guy.Ellenson shoots hooks with both hands!! He has good footwork and a strong base(stronger than Lyles), he holds his ground very well and might be able to play 5 vs backups. He's got a textbook turnaround J. Lots of potential he's ultra-skilled.
