Current NBA players fantasy draft to get us through these coronavirus days

Jrue is one of the best guard defenders in the NBA. Plus unlike many of the other elite defenders is also really good on offense and making players around him better. Plus he can play the 1 or the 2.

Who's the 2 ahead of him?

He plays the most minutes and has the ball in his hands the most. Ingram has more ppg. So does Zion but he's hardly played. Also when the teams been healthy they have played pretty well. Also he has been pretty great in the playoffs when healthy especially on defense.
 
Duncan Robinson

45% from 3 (3.7-8.2), 50 % from corner.
Third in league efg%
Best catch/ shoot in game
Today’s peak korver

match him with

KD
Kyrie
Oladipo


Who’s going to stop this?

He’s a good player in a sea of good players taken in the third round. It’s not like he’s a perennial allstar he can’t elevate his team as a #1 option and only made the playoffs I think 2-3 times playing all these years with a top 5 talent in Davis. I wouldn’t say he totally sticks out from anyone else picked in the third round.

Jaren Jackson Jr
Zion Williams
Tobias Harris
CJ McCollum
Ben Simmons

I think Harris would get taken out early in first quarters due to his defense vs wings and position Versatility, then he’d come back in when Zion gets a rest playing the 4

Exactly, everyone bags on AD for not elevating his team enough but outside of that Portland slaughter in the opening round when has Jrue really really stood out? He's a good player and I would have picked him if he was still available but he's just a good player among good players.

I really wanted to pick him in the third round, but having Simmons I felt I needed a more feared shooter to give Simmons the room he needs to operate in. Not that Holiday is a bad shooter or anything. I just wanted someone that no one would ever leave open, so I went with CJ

Did CJ ever pick up this year? I know he was shooting like dog *** for a good while to open the year.

Well I don’t know about shooting like dog **** at any point but is averaging 22 points and shooting 38% from three. If he was shooting like crap earlier he brought it up quite nicely.
