He boasts a star-level shooting projection, innovative playmaking vision, and a handle capable of freezing defenders. Brown Jr. is one of only three players since 2008, alongside Stephen Curry and Trae Young, to meet the thresholds of Assist% ≥ 30, 3PA/100 Poss ≥ 14, Free Throw % ≥ 0.84, and Free Throw Rate ≥ 35. In the 2025-26 season, he averaged 29.2 minutes per game, showcasing his consistency and impact.

Kingston Flemings is noted for his exceptional feel for the game and his ability to change gears effectively, making him a dynamic offensive threat. He also possesses significant defensive upside, contributing on both ends of the court. Flemings’ playing style draws comparisons to NBA legends like Kevin Johnson, Steve Francis, and Sam Cassell, highlighting his potential impact. His three-point shooting ability and solid frame further enhance his appeal as a prospect for the Chicago Bulls.

Should the Bulls trade up into the top 10? Type ‘Y’ for Yes or ‘N’ for No
If they trade up from 15 its for Mara.
"BIG Time" (ad). it's just trash trade idea to hate on J Giddey. This channel is TRASH

Keaton Wagler
Stay @ 15 fpr Carr
This guy is stupid
Brown didn't show up in big games
BOOZER and Ament or Kingston
More than anything else, this trade rumor reminds me that it is possible if not likely that BG has plenty of thoughts on Josh Giddey and his fit/lack of fit into BG's plan, and it's at least possible that BG comes down on the side of NO for Giddey.
I hate it – though I understand a successful #8 draft pick is better than 15
Kingston. He’s a two way guard that can do it all. Wouldn’t mind Mara. I think Kingston has a higher ceiling though
U just cant stand josh giddey..
Maxey is not Top player in the nba
Absolutely not. Trade for 17 and trade back for 5.
5-Akuff
15-Carr
17-Quaintance
'Y'-Draft Pick #10 Mikel Brown jr or Keaton Wagler❤️🐂💪🏀
Y everyone trying to get rid of a great young PG like Josh. I don’t get it
Kingston will be trash. Too small and lacks athleticism. Brown has the most upside. He’s an NBA scorer out the gate.
Wagler by a mile over the other two. A 6'6 Steph
No don’t do it, you are going to suck anyway.
Mikel Brown Jr is a star, and he will be one of the leaders for rookie of the Year, that's how good he is, he can snap that jump shot off anywhere and it is pure, he's a great pastor as well and he can control the flow of a game better than most point guards I've seen
Kingston Flemings does not have a 6-2 wingspan he has a wingspan of 63.5 so he has a wingspan just under 6:4, he's also not 6'2 come he's 62.5 without shoes on so playing he will be 6'3 close to 6 4, he plays like Derrick Rose and Chris Paul, because clearly Kingston Flemings is the best passing point guard in its draft, he's very physical, he will dunk in your face, he has great court vision and the way he passes the ball is so slick and smooth, he is going to be a very good player because he's so physical on both offense and defense
Eaten wagler, I don't want to play that didn't dunk one time in college, how could you be a starting 6'6 God and not dunk one time? Not only you didn't dunk but you had a player on your team that was shorter than you by 2 in and he was dunking all the time, that shows me that Keaton wagler is soft because if I got a player on my team dunking and he shorter than me, you better believe I'm getting up a dunk just to prove my aggression and my play, but he didn't throw up one dunk completely being outperformed by his teammate who's shorter than him, I saw him being bullied by more physical guards, and when he went up against Labaron philion after United center, he was waving off his team every time he saw Keaton wagler, he basically was saying he can't guard me and he would go after Keaton wagler every time, so I think Keaton wagler is soft and he has a lot to prove to me
If you can get one of those top four lead guards by trading the 15th pick along with a top 3 protected pick in a future draft, I’d say you do that all day, every day. Maybe Sacramento would do 7 and Sabonis and his fat contract for pick 15 and Josh Giddey? Or maybe the Hawks would be interested in taking 15, a future first and some second rounders for number 8?
If Giddey has to go than this is the draft to do it in. I would miss his numbers he brought in the 2 years avg 16pts 8 Rbs 8 Asst. Not easy to replace. Some of those games he missed were healthy scratches.
For me it's Wagler whose game reminds me of LaMelo Ball.
Wagler or Flemmings.
Wagler
I'm not trading up for guards I'm trading up for athletic big or wing players on both sides of the ball
wagler
Of the 3 I like Kingston the most good size and shot over 38% from 3 and had a very good defensive ratings this year and a 1.5 steals a game as a 19 year old freshman not bad. But I will also like that one Baylor player. So we could just stay put
