i'd forget about the hornets they're set on a C in this draft. instead look at the knicks or cavs for a deal with KJ.
Dyson Daniels better pan out then.

Good offense beats good defense. No one stops the top offensive players in the league.
You'll never build a winner with a team of defensive players without top scorers.
Okay? Lol. That team has SGA, etc.
Random ideas for drafting:
Guys who Play the Right way: Dyson Daniels, Sochan, Dieng, Jovic, LaRavia, Wendell Moore Jr, Trevor Keels.
Guys with a high Body Mass Index (for the later picks): TyTy Washingon, Trevion Williams, David Roddy, Kessler, Alondes Williams.
Guys who haven't done much yet but are if not young at least look happy and coachable: Caleb Houstan, Max Christie, Dalen Terry, Christian Braun, Bruce McGowens, Ryan Rollins.
Guys with some mystery about their personality who have good potential: Tari Eason, Kendall Brown, Marjon Beauchamp.
Guys who can probably score but likely liability in other ways: Jalen Hardy, Malakai Branham, Patrick Baldwin Jr,
When will the draft get here...
SGA is a great trade piece.
I am all for Alondes Williams with the 38th pick, his highlights are eye popping and worth the pick there imo. He has that Lonnie athleticism but actually has a good feel for the game unlike Lonnie. Never mind his athleticism his passing was eye popping as well. Went from averaging 6 PPG at Oklahoma to ACC player of the year in just one season.
The comps I heard and read for Duren were a young Dwight Howard and a young, shorter David Robinson.
Give me both Demon Deacs tbh.
I’m all for Alondes at 25, even 20. If our scouts think he’s worth a pick that high, and from the tape I’ve seen, then I think he will be a Ginobilli type player for us. Will not think he’s a reach at all.
The big knock on Alondes Williams, aside from age, are his turnovers. He averaged 5.2 assists to 3.7 TO on the season. That’s a 1.4. A/TO ratio. He was 5.7 to 4.5 in the conference regular season. That is not good. His assist numbers are great, but he turned the ball over a ton. Like a young Manu indeed.
Also, he turns 23 next week, so not a lot of upside. But at the 38th pick, this isn’t as big of a concern.
That would definitely be a reach lol.
Don’t care. With Manu on the staff, if they think Alondes is worthy of a pick in the 20’s then I trust it and would be thrilled.
Rather get Procida
OK City has a great chance to come out of this draft with much more talent on their team than the Spurs do.
The spurs have only worked out two guys that are projected to go around 9 right? (At least that’s been reported) Johnny Davis and Dyson Daniels
This should be a fun one to discuss in a couple of days.
depends on your definition of fun
I just saw this a little while ago:

Magic Johnson tweeting level analysis here.
That won't move them up much, if at all, I wouldn't think..
If "Jam Hines" and his 866 followers say so, tbh.
And the spurs are shopping a package that includes Lonnie and 20 to teams. Just not worth much tbh.
