2023 NBA Draft Megathread

[Saint Cy of JFC]

jett howard, grady dick, mark mitchell, kyle filipowski, brandon miller and cason wallace are guys who could be available later in the lottery and mid/late first round for the Jazz who played well last night.

kinda time we start looking at guys in that range at this point.

IF I had to guess I think the jazz draft like 13-20-22.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

How long is Dick?

Seriously

For being a high ranked HS prospect there isnt any hits when you google his wingspan. I would be shocked if he had anything over a +1 or 2'' wingspan, so probably 6'8 or 6'9.

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

The fun part about being out of the Wemby race is that we have a super wide range of prospects to think about.

I like this draft quote a bit too… for example Becenie didn’t even have Dick on his top prospects cuz he thought it might take him a bit and he might not be a one and done… sure looks the part so far.

I just for once want at least one athletic long wing prospect… just one is all I ask.

that seems about right to me. it's wishful thinking, but i'm hoping anthony edwards continues to suck and minny can't figure out how to win with rudy and towns and maybe they sneak up to around 9 or 10 with that pick.

Seriously

Dick size doesn’t matter… he’s long enough to get the job done.

The Freshman class is insane. Got to think some of them return just because not everyone can be a 1st round pick.

I have no idea what to think about Minnesota anymore. I just know they arent going to get anything about a 7th/8th seed.

Speaking of which, if you get the 7th seed, but lose all the play-in games, do you draft lottery or do you draft outside the lottery?

pretty sure it's the 14 teams that don't make the playoffs. so that 7th seed would be in the lottery.

Yes if you end up as a 7-10 seed but don't advance out of the the play-in then you are a lottery team.

Glad to see my guy Gradey balling out in his first game.

Dick balling out sounds like funky business.

 

[YoungJefe]

We currently have the 12th, 14th, and 28th picks.

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

Everyone thought we were tanking for Wemby by we were trying to take the L for that D

He looks like Richie from Happy Days.

I really like Baba Miller's defensive potential. He's switchable at 6'11" and has a nice well-rounded set of wing skills. He needs to bulk up a bit, but could play a JJJ-type role at the 4 and 5. It's looking increasingly like he'll be available in the teens, given that the NCAA is suspending him for 16 games. I would probably take Baba over both Lively and Ware at this stage.

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

I like Keyonte George a bit ahead of Dariq Whitehead entering the season. He's a playmaking combo-guard with real scoring chops. At the college level, he looks better than Maxey, imo. Could be available in the 7 - 12 range.

He actually looks like BYU Danny Ainge

Baba Miller is one of the higher upside guys who might be available mid to late first if he doesn't have a standout freshman year

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Lively seems like a pretty safe bet to be a good big in the NBA. Ware has to prove he has a motor and can play hard.

 

[Ron Mexico]

I would be very surprised if we make all 3 first round picks. We already have a lot of guys to develop. I assume we combine them to move up or make a trade with them for a player or future pick/s.

Jazz could easily go into next season with 7 people under contract. I could see them keeping all the picks.
