2023 NBA Draft Megathread

Doesn’t Dick actually have decent length? And that’s not an innuendo that’s been run into the ground around here.

It’s just average (maybe a little below) for a normal SF. But relative to the other guys in this group, I think you have to say he’s on the low end.
 
I think he’s a guy I’d take late lotto if I didn’t have a 5. He was pretty impressive in a couple games I watched. I agree. Dallas should cut a deal with us to move back so they can take him.
I wonder if he could have a similar impact as Kessler and end up on an all rookie team. He doesn't have nearly the offensive touch or instincts as Kessler, but he's a more explosive dunker/rim protector. He really looked good towards the end of the year.

I think he may have a year more similar to Mark Williams… maybe doesn’t play much first part of the year. Think he will have a slower start.

I could see that as well. I'll be interested to see what he looks like in summer league. He was just so much better at the end of the season then at the first of the season.
 
I could be way off about this, but I'm also not sure that Brandon Miller is worth a #2 pick. I think he'll be solid, but not sure he is going to be special. So if I'm a team that already has a point guard, so not taking Scoot, I think there is some logic for trading the #2 pick.
Yes, and after watching the nuggets of all teams win a title, it helps having a star of the joker’s caliber. I don’t believe we have a player of that ilk. I love Markkanen, but I don’t think he’ll get to that level. So my thinking is the simplest way to possibly get that is hoping Scoot is that kind of transcendent athlete. If the hornets are that serious about making a trade the jazz should be all in on that.
