    If khaman maluach is available at 7th-8th id take him as backup center but there is some really good talent comin in this years draft 3&D wing defenders and playmaking gaurds 👍🏻

  4. @marsilver11

    Recently Masai was spotted in Serbia scouting prospects, who are your favourite overseas prospects in this draft class?

  6. @Devon7Landry

    Not tryna sound like a hater but personally i wouldn't draft jakaciunas i just feel like we can get a better fit with more potential in top 10

  7. @johnhamilton2914

    Funny when you do a player comp with Walter Clayton, Clayton comes out as a much better player and he's projected on tankathon at 36 so Jacko may fall drastically.

  8. @johnhamilton2914

    I really liked Alex Condon before the tournament but he really disappointed me these last few games he seemed passively soft reminds me too much of Filipowski so I'm kinda out on him now.

  9. @Ednanadine

    Maluach is growing on me. We need a back up centre and he seems to have the height and the arms to make an impact if Jac isn’t on the floor. Another great episode. Thanks!

    I’m getting REALLY worried Khaman maluach will not be there if we are at 7 or 8. It’s
    All going to depend who is picking ahead of us. Charlotte will take Khaman if they drop to 4 or 5. I worry about Phili too. Khaman is the perfect replacement for the cry baby, embiid.

  11. @windowman9665

    Starting to think the raptors will have to get lucky and move up to 4th in order to lock in Maluach.
    I would be ok with queen at 7 or 8. But kasparas would be a good choice if the two bigs are gone. He will thrive in darkos system. It’s made for a player like kasparas

  13. @windowman9665

    Maluach is the pick. I kinda hope he forces his way to Masai. There is the African connection. I really really Khaman Maluach is there. I trust Darko , Bobby and Masai. Kasparas, d queen, Maluach, I trust them all to grow and develop. But don’t be shocked if we pick tre Johnson either

  15. @chrisdonovan9781

    I was high on Maluach before the tournament for the reasons you mentioned. The guys who really grew on me are Knueppel and Queen. Queen and Maluach both give you the opportunity to run different schemes by adding lob threat and playmaking big archetypes, and Knueppel’s role is obvious in providing decent defence while spacing well for BBIQ, adding to the spacing arsenal of Dick/Walter/Agbaji/Battle. Demin would fit in well in Darko’s system if he can get his shooting up. I personally like the idea of adding someone who gives us new looks, though. Maluach and Queen are my guys at the 7-9 range if they’re still available.

    There are a lot of false picks in this draft.
    100 percent right on Kasparas Jakucionis. 6 turnover x 3. No thanks

    Egor Demin is another on. However I would rather him over the previously mentioned, not as a point guard. Your right about Queen but he does a (few) things good I waited long enough. Johni Broome, JT Toppin, Yaxel Lendeborg,Tyrese Proctor. Ill take all of that or 3 out of 4 but Johni Broome has to be in it. keep 4,5,6,7 pick
    Finally, if you going to pick Kon, its because Tre is already chosen. Kon is more suitable for good team with defense, passing a good IQ team like Duke
