What are your thoughts?

NBA Draft 2017 Sleepers

Basically he could end up a steal if he goes in late first or early second. I don't think he's an a starter on a playoff team but I do think he could be an above average backup PG due to his ability to play in the P&R. Obviously after watching that Washington series we all know how important having a solid backup is.

Ingram has two way star potential, Russell has 20-24ppg potential.

I like how Lonzo is going to bring them together and allow Russell to play off the ball more.

I just hope the Front Office sees that. No more of that wheeling and dealing, the Doc Buss era is over. I want to see these kids get a chance to grow and flourish together.

#LWO is all in on #BBB

Philly needs a shooter and Fox isn't that, though they could use the help at the 1, I think they'll take BPA given their history and that's Jackson.

The highest he could go is 4 to Phoenix and that's plausible but they also have 9999 guards already as is.

Sacramento low key might have a core if they nail this right

But no chance Tatum slides to 10
Tatum won't slide past 8. Kings at 10 might as well address SF.

If they don't prefer OG, I know it's a reach at 10, so trading down might be in order, but they're a team that could afford to go after Diallo

C Cauley-Stein
PF Labissiere
SF Diallo
SG Hield
PG Fox

Super young, super raw, but if they don't botch this, have the makings of something promising down the road


That said, Phoenix is as obsessed as Sacramento is with Kentucky players, so they could go with Fox too

I'd say they'd make it real easy for Magic if they did a workout together, but someone would duck it.

The PG who offers to work out against anyone can boost their stock the most outside of Fultz.

Does it really do anything for Lonzo though? What he does best isn't going to show up in a one on one game. Taking too much from that could be dangerous.
