Who should we pick at #5?

thanks mate I feel like it's my fault so i have to carry this stigma

FalseFlagg K, you’re cool bro, no need to carry stigma.

Yeah. NBA lotto screwed everyone this year. At least we’re not Washington.

That Bub Carrington’s shot was gold for us.. lol..

It’s huge right now. Kinda want to send him a gift basket tbh.

Here's my ranking. I'll leave out Cooper and Harper since they're not worth thinking about.
1. Ace Bailey
Of course, he could be a bust. But he's the player Utah wants to be the 'ace'.
2. VJ Edgecomb
Utah doesn't have an ace stopper anyway. VJ can fill that role, and he can be the vanguard of a counterattack and a fast break.
3. Tre Johnson
If options 1 and 2 fail, Utah will eventually have to solve the problem of 'no first option', and Tre has a high probability of doing this.
4. Kasparas Jakučionis
A handler capable of 3-points... Assuming other handler prospects can't fix their weaknesses, this guy is a decent insurance.
5. I don't think there is anything else. We already have Kessler and Filipowski, don't tell us to add another big man.

Can we trade the pick for an established player?

I don’t think it helps this team tbh. They need this pick to be a key guy and a top pick out of the next draft - that means tanking hard again.

They should do the opposite of that and trade away their established players if they can.

We are more likely to trade an established player for a pick.

I’m hoping Charlotte takes Tre, adding a defensive minded off guard next to Collier but I’ll be happy either way I just think VJ fits better than Tre

They’re pretty even at this point.

I’ll be happy with either one of them, tbfph.

Me too.
Im pretty pissed that we don't get Flagg.
But like Ace, Tre, and VJ (in that order) and will be happy with any of those 3.

Feels kinda like getting a 3rd pick to me since I can’t decide amongst the 3.. lol..

Disappointment of getting the #5 pick is gone for me.
