Interested to watch Gary Payton II today. With a such a PG heavy league having an antheletic, defensive PG is key.

Thomas Walkup, Gary Payton II, Domantas Sabonis
Stephen Zimmerman, Melo Trimble, AJ Hammons
I still believe Simmons will come around and become a rotation player. In addition to complementing Kyle (and vice versa), he works well with Kawhi. People tend to overlook the fact that when he was catching everybody's eye he and Kawhi were working well together.
BUT if Simmons has any trade value to us, I believe it is in a package with our late first round pick to move up a few spots to grab a player that has fallen. We need more immediate help than we are apt to get out of our late first and a mid second round pick.
PGs projected for the late 1st ( or later) seem like the biggest plus area of the draft going by the difference between their stats rank and projected position. Different stats systems and big boards will order differently, though looking at ESPN: http://insider.espn.go.com/nba/insid...al-projections
Fred van Fleet: #1 stats, #62 Big Board,
Wade Baldwin: #6 stats, #17 Big Board
Tyler Ulis: #11 stats, #22 big board
Gary Payton Jr: #4 stats, #42 Big Board
Monte Morris: #9 stats, # 46 big board
My lazy predictor of Spurs draft picks over recent years is long for position, and a stats pick. That knocks out Ulis, though the others all seem like options.
Other good stats, low big board guys on that list are Boucher (Oregon), Warney (Stony Brook) Hart (Villanova), Patrick McCaw (UNLV) and Tyler Davis (A&M).

Thomas Walkup is an incredibly unique, versatile player. Great for him to get this platform to showcase his skills. Feel is off the charts.

The one thing (among many) that stand out is the high release on his shot.
Although he is listed as a SG, I project Malcolm Brogdon as a combo guard. ACC Player of the Year, DPOY, great leadership skills and very good ball handling skill for a SG. His 3-point shooting has improved every year. Talk about the perfect Spur! What kind of stats and Big Board slots do you have for him?
I also like Wade Baldwin - very good BBIQ.
White Gary Neal
Although he plays as a combo guard in college, Brogdon doesn't have the foot-speed to check NBA point guards & Baldwin doesn't have the ball handling skills to play point in the NBA.

How is Georges Niang not in any of these mock drafts, such as Draft Express?
I just added 10 new profiles for guys in this draft. If there are other guys you want to take about, make a thread (following the format if you could) or just request it here, and I'll get to it.
To follow up with this, I ended up making a thread for every prospect I saw mentioned in this thread. We have 44 prospects covered so far. If there are others you want, just notify me or something (or make a thread yourself for my approval). Make sure you check the prospect index for this year before requesting or making a new thread. There are many players we haven't covered, but everyone we've discussed so far has been taken care of, so it's very possible you can find your man by just checking by his last name.
Thanks Chinook for all you do appreciate it!!...
Theres going to be so many players enter the draft this year
This is going to be a very deep draft. The Spurs can get some talent to contribute right away or they can roll the dice on more potential and do draft and stash.
I may vomit if they draft and stash again. There's just too much talent at positions of need for them to pass it up to save money. The Spurs will have their pick of five or six guys who could theoretically help them at 29. Insane.
I agree they are a lot of good bigs that are going to start pushing their way up to the first round. So I see some very good PG and SG falling within our pick.
Not to sure if the Spurs want to replace Manu position with a rookie? So I am thinking PG or Big. But with RC you never know.
Would he be better than Patrick beverly?
What about Vezenkov ? is he eligible ?
Would you (and everyone else) please put people's full names if you want threads on them? I have no idea who that guy is.
http://www.draftexpress.com/profile/...Vezenkov-6429/
He is only eligible to be drafted if he enters his name. Seeing how he hasn't really played that much for Barcelona this season it's unlikely that it happens though. I don't think an unathletic tweener like him would do too well in the NBA.
Sorry my bad.. and thanks Jyra for the info, I thought he was better lol
I guess you could say he's bigger a Patrick Beverley w/ Simmons type athleticism. Beverley isn't a great finisher but is a better spot-up shooter; GPII is like CoJo on offense. Overall, best comparison is Avery Bradley w/ CoJo's shooting touch/range.
