Should we draft both Morris twins?

TAMPA, Fla. -- The NBA has had its fair share of twins recently. Jason Collins and Jarron Collins both were drafted in the first round. Brook Lopez and Robin Lopez both were lottery picks. But Kansas forwards Marcus Morris and Markieff Morris are taking things to a completely different level.

Interesting because Marcus sounds like he might be a good 3 in the NBA (fills a need for the Jazz even though we think Jazz will take BPA) and Markieff could be in our bigs rotation and maybe eventually be our starting 4 or 5 and play alongside Favors. Just a thought, maybe the 6th pick is to high for either so maybe if Brandon Knight and Enes Kanter are off the board by the time we select at 6 we look to trade with Cleveland to the 8th pick and some 2nd rounders, thoughts?

If Knight and Biyombo are both off the board, Id possibly consider trading up for certain assets, given the deal was good enough. Itd be really cool having twins on the same team, but I dont think the Utah Jazz simply have room for Markieff, unless we did some serious moving around this offseason. It really depends which direction we head into/what KOC proposes is the best for the team. Ideally I'd prefer either a Knight/Singleton or a Biyombo/Singleton, depending on which of the aforementioned two impresses more in draft workouts.
 
It's going to be really hard for these guys when they end up on separate teams. I wonder if they'll be able to handle it.
 
I'm not overly impressed with either one of them. Marcus might be a decent role player in the NBA. That's about it.
 
No. What we should try to do is draft every Plumlee as they come out or every Zeller :). We could sign the oldest one as a really cheap free agent.
