Following Potential 2018 Draftees

After watching Golden State and Houston, my 3 off-season targets are:

Draft DonteD - he has the ability to play PG, SG and I believe some SF if we go small. If Gordon can play with Harden and Paul, why can't Rubio, Mitchell and Donte all play together at times? Donte is a complete player. All the intangibles. If you watch the combine footage, the guy just makes basketball plays with and without the ball.

Keep Exum - we need his defense. Even if his offense only marginally improves, his D is outstanding and should only get better.

Sign Hezonja - he is a dangerous offensive SF/PF who can switch defensively.

All 3 guys are 23 years old or less and fit our needs to address the current monster that is Golden State and the upcoming monster Boston. And all 3 guys could be on contracts making less than $10 million per year each.

Good ideas. Hezonja wont sign in Utah to be strictly a 6th man tho. Royce O'Neale exists.
 
trust me Doncic is going to Pheonix. If I was Pheonix i would be talkign with the Kings and drop a spot. Gain an asset and still draft Doncic.

He's a NY kid! Has some grit to him, he really was tested with a ton of high pressure 3's too. He's the type of shooter who really gets hot too, his release isnt quick but its effective, his makes often just touch the back of the rim and bouncing straight down. He's doing something right, defenders in his face knowing he's gonna pull the trigger and he's drilling em. Check the highlights from the syracuse game.
 
@Gilles de Rais Thanks

I think Hezonja wants minutes but I just don't see anywhere where he gets a starting spot. If we don't bring back Favors, we can easily sell him on the idea that the starting PF spot will be up for grabs and that before too long, Ingles will serve us best as a key part of the 2nd unit. Royce is best as our bench SG/SF whereas Hezonja is a PF/SF.

So Hezonja would have a chance to come to a soon to be contender, have a shot to play meaningful minutes and play for a quality coach who will maximize his skillset. I think we are a perfect fit for Hezonja.

Just watched a lot of Frazier this morning. I think he ends up being a first rounder.

Defensively he can potentially guard as many as 3 positions in the NBA today and nothing seems broken offensively. Can never have too many Royce’s?

Frazier at the Combine. He deflects pass after pass.

It's too bad he doesnt have a more developed/thicc physique or it could be 5 positions. He is a real skinny dude, so IDK how he will deal with the physicality of the NBA.

The thing that gives me pause on him is his jump shot. It's kind of ugly. He shot it well this year, but he cant really shoot off the move at all (not that big of a deal to be a good role player) and he shoots on the way down (which I would assume would lead to bad percentages with the farther back 3pt shot). If he was bigger, like 210-220, you could project him as a small ball 4 like a Jerami Grant, being 200 lbs at the combine when he turns 22 in August is kind of a worry.

Not Euroleague, and defense showed on Musa was pretty terrible here. But was a semi-final victory for his team:
