Following Potential 2018 Draftees

Jerome Robinson has skyrocketed up mock drafts. Seems there's a very small chance he's even available by the time the Jazz pick. He's pushed Troy Brown down. He's #17 on Givony's mock draft on ESPN insider and #16 on NBAdraft.net.
 
Give me Brown or give me death!!

I’m puzzled how he isn’t considered a lotto pick. I hope to god we trade up for him. He’s going to be good. He’s Taylor made for the jazz.
 
Of the guys that could realistically be there at 21, the order of the guys I'd want is:
-Huerter (looks like a difference-maker on offense with some untapped upside)
-Big Ragu (doesn't have quite the same level of size or shooting ability as Huerter, but the guy just plays the game like a wrecking ball)
-KBD (I am having a tough time differentiating the many 3+D guys, but KBD separates himself as a stretch 4 with his ability to protect the rim, play in the post, and long reach)
-Okobo I think
-I have a tough time knowing who I should like between Thomas, Okogie, and Frazier, they all kind of blur together, but one of those guys?

I wouldn't want to reach on Spellman, but if he was selected at #21 I would be just fine with it.

Guys I'm meh on:
Hutchison, Jerome Robinson, Brown, Evans, Brunson

Nope:
Mitchell Robinson, Holiday, Musa, Allen

I’m on the Brown bandwagon, too. But don’t see any way that he’ll still be on the board by the time we pick. Hoping we can find a way to trade up and grab him.
 
So back to my 24 hour fascination with Spellman:

Someone like Marcus Morris was quite serviceable for the Celtics at the four, despite not necessarily being all that athletic or quick, being an okay stretcher, and overall a subpar rebounder. Even having a Marcus Morris on our team adds a pretty versatile skill set. Now take Marcus Morris and put him on steroids, increase his rim protection and defensive abilities, drastically improve his rebounding and perimeter shooting, and you've got Spellman.

I wouldn't hate that (depending on who's there at 21, I feel good about Huerter). Especially if they can move up in the 2nd/grab an extra 2nd.

IMO Huerter will go lottery. I think there will be tons of turns and twists outside the top 8. Teams will get enamored with prospects up and down the draft. Huerter will move up I think, because of his shot and length.

I’m pretty close to this... Okobo higher and I really like Evans. I think he’s one of the safest guys in our range. I’m fine with Musa... nope on Brunson.
