2024 NBA Draft Mega Thread

For Dadiet, we might have to deal with PHX to move up. Maybe we'll have to move up even further.
 
Krysten Peek just posted her new mock draft:

1. Risacher
2. Sarr
3. Castle
4. Sheppard
5. Salaun
6. Buzelis
7. Clingan
8. Holland
9. Knecht
10. Dillingham
11. Topic
12. Williams
13. George
14. Ware

Jazz passing on both Topic and Williams for Dillingham? She also has Portland taking both Clingan and Ware, which....probably doesn't make sense. She has the Jazz taking AJ Johnson at #29 with Bobi Klintman at #32.

I think Kyshawn George has a good chance of going in the teens, tbh, but obviously there may not be consensus. I do think Portland maybe one of the teams who are high on Kel'el Ware.

She has DaRon Holmes going to Denver at #28. Denver does need a backup at 4/5 pretty badly and probably doesn't have much money for it. Holmes makes some sense in Denver.

Carter is the only player that excites me in our pick range. There are others I would be happy with, but Carter is above them for me. That seems to be the same way for you with Edey. Are there others that excite you too for number 10 pick?
Yeah, overall not very excited about anyone in this draft at all. I would be excited for Topic and Edey at 10, but that's about it. I would like Carter, but I dont know if I would frame it as excitement.

I'm very OK with trading 10.
 
I am a defense first guy, so that looked great. I would like to know how he would do with against more athletic NBA types
I think his defense can be fine enough. He's someone I'd be excited about drafting at 10, but the mocks dont justify you having to take him at 10, so (at this point with the info we have) I would use 29+32 to move up to get him.

I think it is going to be worth swapping 29/32 for 22... in part because of having 6 first or second year players isn't super ideal... but also I think Dadiet/Edey/Holmes are there. If Collier was really there like on the KOC mock I think that is crazy town but I'd jump on that.

That seems like a deal that could make sense unless PHX is really targeting someone specific. It would also give them a super credible threat to take Bronny at 32 which I'm sure Ishbia would cream his pants at.
 
We will have a better idea on how much hype Dadiet has after we learn what people took away from the Eurocamp.

I think they would do it in a heartbeat. It also helps their budget. No idea if they are serious about Bronny or why they would be so serious about him. They really don't have any smart way to acquire Lebron.
