2023 NBA Draft Megathread

Feels like dudes who standout during these combine scrimmages often mean something. A name to keep an eye on. Will probably get invited to NBA Combine based off his performance.
 
I'm pretty sure Bobby Marks was the first person I heard mention the possibility of the Jazz trading Royce to the Nets for a first round pick, and then that's exactly what ended up happening.

I would rather keep the pick.

I do not get the feeling he has any kind of insight. In the video the reasoning is "I am not sure they walk out with 3 first round rookies" and "they don't have seconds so this would replenish the seconds".

I love Bobby but using a first to replenish future second rounders is some pretty dumb planning. You trade vets you can't offload for firsts to get seconds. If you have a million firsts the seconds are really going to be used for trades later... Maybe some turn into players but I think we can add some second rounders with less important assets.
 
I don't really see future seconds as having a lot of value to us except to grease the wheels - we have so many firsts in the next decade it may be hard to roster almost any second rounders.
