There's a bit of chatter about Amen rising a bit. I still feel like Portland holds an auction for Scoot if he drops to 3. But they're liable to just take Amen. It's what they do.
That's a recipe for a precipitous drop if Miller goes 2nd, and someone with a PG trades for Portland's pick. GMs can be vindictive. Supposedly, Keldon worked out for a number of teams, but none below like 16. He dropped to 29.

Maybe the Spurs didn't request one, but I'm surprised Scoot isn't working out with us, considering that Scoot has said he feels he should be in consideration for the #1 pick.
I'm sure Spurs would love to get a free scouting session on him, but perhaps that's why Scoot won't work out with us.
For the kind of prospect Scoot is i would trade some of the FRP for him. We would effectively get our 1-2 combo for years.
Scoot shoots better than Spurstalk favorite Black.
A dynamic high volume scorer is needed to take pressure off Wemby and Scoot is that.
There are no players on the current Spurs who are skilled enough to be a go to dynamic 2nd all star level scorer to Wemby.
Yes, let's take the ball out of Wembanyama's hands and give it to an undersized, egotistical chucker.
lets surround wemby with ymca level talent. that way we wont ever take the ball out of his hands
Yes, that's the only other option.
Wemby can't take all the shots.
Guess our hands are tied! We have to spend all our draft capital on a very expensive dwarf who can't play defense or shoot!
Hey you want Black who shoots worse and is slow compared to Scoot.
Scoot also is a better playmaker, plays faster, had double the assist numbers.
You can get other defensive players if you want to add defense at lower cost like wing defender Andre Jackson with pick 33.
Anthony Black is a waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaay better playmaker than Scoot Henderson. It's not even the same game. And Ignite assist numbers are a joke. His usage rate is around 20%, what you actually want, not some midget ballhog who just jacks up a lot of shots. I'd also say Black is more athletic than Henderson is. He's wildly overrated in that regard.
Defense, not even close. I mean, just give up on that side of the ball, I guess.
No he isn't a better playmaker.
Black is slow compared to Scoot and his game is better suited for college. Need quickness in the NBA.
I don't see Black as more athletic. Scoot is far more athletic. just moves quicker and plays faster.
Scoot isn't even a playmaker. It's just drive and kick or dump for him. There's no knowledge or understanding of how to manipulate defenses.
I mean, who gives a . The franchise is way smarter than this. Black might not be their guy. That's fine. Scoot Henderson is ABSOLUTELY not their guy. It's moronic to even talk about. There's not a single level from play style to personality where a rational person would want Scoot Henderson on this team.
If the Spurs landed at 2 Scoot would be their pick.
Definitely feel this. At this point, I think if the Spurs were realistically going to try to make a big move back to the top of the draft (which I don’t think they are or will), it would probably only be for Amen.
Spurs don't have the assets to trade to get the number 2 or 3 pick. They MIGHT be able to get Amen, but I still think that it is highly unlikely. Why is someone going to trade the 5-7 picks for first rounders that could be out of the lottery years into the future with no guarantee of better prospects than Amen. You have to trade proven talent that is still young to get a trade in that range, I think.
Funnily enough. I agree with every single one of these points. All very good points. Just not sure how to build the perfect team around Victor.
I would like this, but just not sure Scoot is that player. I really would like to have someone he can grow with and take off the pressure to do so. I'm very interested in Scoot, but if he is not that player, not sure if it's worth it to give up what we'd have to to get him?
This would be a drawback. I like what Rascal said about getting a volume scorer to take some of the pressure off, but not sure who that player is. If this Spurs think it's Scoot, what do they give up to try and get that pick?
Don't want to see this happen either, so another good point.
True, it's not the only option, but I do feel the Spurs need to try and get someone to take some of the pressure/load off of VW. Even TD had players that could do that for him right off of the bat.
This feels like hyperbole.
'masterclass' C'mon, man.
Every single one of those plays is what I said: he's looking for his shot or drive. He passes when he has to. Cross court passes are just basic passes. "master class"
If we get Scoot then we better max out Klay bc we need someone who can actually shoot the 3ball in the starting line up. Scoot can’t, Wemby can’t (yet), and neither can Sochan. KJ is streaky af. Maybe Vassell. But he shoots too much midrange. I would like to up him to 10 3s a game.
Honestly, if Zach Lavine could ever stay healthy, and if he had a reasonable contract… someone like him would seem like a great fit, IMO.
Scoot is ing incredible, I don't understand why he isn't 100% clearly the consensus #2 pick. Disaster franchises like Charlotte should be thankful to have the opportunity to draft him.
Why would Charlotte want him?
