I'd say right now my 2 favorites at 23 are Davis and Paschall.

Both super athletic and strong for their positions. Both are capable shooters.

I grew tired of not being able to complete this so I just completed it.

Dammit, I'm kind of falling for Carsen Edwards, even though my brain is telling me not to. I've seen him mocked mostly from the mid 20s to the late 30s, but I wouldn't be surprised if NBA teams are higher on him than the draft analysts. I could see him going late teens.

I like how you declare what they care about more... I doubt they think they will be free agent players next year. The money would be a big deal... not just a preference item.

C'mon man. We predict all the time what we think teams want and need. We all do research, read up, etc.

As a TN resident, I get the impression that Memphis doesn't care about 2019-20 space all that much. They are going to undergo a long rebuild. They have their two franchise players in Morant and JJJ. They understand no good free agent wants to join right now and Parsons is an expiring.

I think they would love to dump all of Conley's 2019-20 money but it isn't a priority.

Paschall is another one of these fairly safe picks. He should be a top-8 rotation player, and he should be versatile enough to keep Quin's system moving. He'll defend. He'll swing the ball. He'll make at least a minimum number of his shots. He can take some smaller guys in the paint. I see him as another glue guy, someone who can play 18 or 20 minutes and contribute on both ends. I'm not seeing him as an upside play. The Jazz need guys like that, and having a player on rookie-scale is a good thing, but in the bigger picture, the Jazz may need to be more aggressive in the draft. I'm looking for Zanick to make a signature move.

If we got Rudy at #27 and traded up from #24 to get Mitchell, we should be trying to catch lightening one more time.
 
Paschall is a reach. I dont believe it. and I'll be underwhelmed if thats the pick. At this spot in the draft, where we've been quite a bit this decade,I always say the same thing, we will have oppotunity at lotto projected guys who fall, like rudy and rodney... and thats why u can't sell me on Paschall..

He is a good athlete, fairly skilled, competitive and has NBA frame. Turns 23 Nov 4th right at the start of the season though, and for that I dont like it.. 4 year rookie deal he'll be just about 27 going into his second deal.

Paschall = a swing for a double... not a home-run...

He has some lower leg injury history already too,, and he's a big dude at near 260lbs..
