Following potential 2017 draftees...

I don't know what it would take, but I too really like Smith.

Let me say something that will be wildly unpopular here... this year's draft (first round, that is) is not stronger than next year's. They are fairly equal. I see more solid players in '17 and more star potential in '18.
Okay, I got that off my chest.

If we can't pick up a PG in this year's draft, I'd look to trade out or into next year.

I have heard the Suns would deal (maybe public knowledge?) and if we could pull that off would be looking, likely, at either Fox or Ball. Favors, Hood, and our pick for #4? Then we pick up a cheaper version of stretch 4... you know the one.

Smith is a very intriguing prospect. I think he's gonna be good.

I love Fox. Incredible athlete, high motor, and seems to have a great attitude.

I would love to trade up for Fox.

If the plan is to build around Gobert and Hayward then I wouldn't want to trade our best trade assets (Favors, Hood, Exum) for a draft pick that may or may not pan out. I'd want an established all star level player in return.

What about Favors, Hood, our pick and we take on Knights contract for #4?
I think that deal gets done.

Would we?

I think that's interesting, but I don't think that the Suns care too much about Knights contract. When their young guys are ready, his contract will be over or can be dealt away as an expiring contract.

That would be DL's line of thinking too. If Hayward walks then something like a draft trade up would be in play as we would be in re-tooling mode.
 
I found our backup for Rudy....

I feel somewhat vindicated that my impressions on draftees isn't totally gone when I saw Semi jumped like 15 spots on DX's latest mock. I love that kid/dude.
