Sacramento’s moves are likely to look like a monkey throwing shite at a wall.

It’s an especially unpredictable draft.

So our writers tried to predict it, of course.

That’s a pretty strong mock IMO

Sacramento's worst move should be to sit tight and draft Mathurin at 4. That would be my move.

Duren to Spurs is an odd one

Poetl is maybe the most underrated defensive center in the game and should remain relatively affordable.

I think so too, but NBA.com does a consensus of the 12 top Mock drafts and 5 of them have Duren to the Spurs. That's up from 4 a few days ago and the most commonly mocked player for them. I don't know where it's coming from but it seems to be a thing.

MOST COMMON PICKS

No. 1 (Magic): Jabari Smith (10)

No. 2 (Thunder): Chet Holmgren (10)

No. 3 (Rockets): Paolo Banchero (12)

No. 4 (Kings): Jaden Ivey (10)

No. 5 (Pistons): Keegan Murray (7)

No. 6 (Pacers): Bennedict Mathurin (5)

No. 7 (Trail Blazers): Dyson Daniels (5)

No. 8 (Pelicans): Dyson Daniels, Shaedon Sharpe (4)

No. 9 (Spurs): Jalen Duren (5)

No. 10 (Wizards): Johnny Davis (9)

No. 11 (Knicks): A.J. Griffin (6)

No. 12 (Thunder): Ousmane Dieng, Jeremy Sochan (3)

No. 13 (Hornets): Mark Williams (4)

No. 14 (Cavaliers): Ochai Agbaji (6)

Love it, although I think Murray and Mathurin would be flipped

I think if the Portland/Toronto trade happens, then I think it is very obvious Toronto is moving up to take Dyson Daniels, not Sharpe. Dyson is the type of draft pick you'd expect from Toronto, not Sharpe.

Hopefully Indy is big on Sharpe and takes him, or better yet, Sacramento does something really dumb and takes him at 4 in the hopes that they can trade him. I hope that happens, b/c i really don't like the idea of drafting Sharpe.

There have been some rumblings that the Raptors really like Sochan.

What are likely terms for a Portland-Toronto deal?

7 for OG is obvious.

The question is what other pieces Toronto wants and/or if Portland can fit him into cap space without renouncing anybody or causing issues with taking Jerami Grant into that TPE.


Edit - Josh Hart seems like a Raptors kind of guy. What if they took him from Portland and then drafted Sochan with 7? He is making $12m if guaranteed so that is within spitting distance of OG’s $17m.

Man I hope we get Daniels. It’s draft day, a day most draftees I’d imagine would take it easy and enjoy the day. But not Daniels, he’s having a morning workout

Yeah daniels seems like a great team fit. Get Fred on his shot and he’s cooking on both ends.

I also read from another Twitter guy that Raptors also like Duren.

Honestly that makes me like him more.

The kind of culture we have now tends to be a lot of hard work effort guys who go in and bust their arse every day.


After so many years of soft entitled pieces of shite, I love having those kinds of guys.

Yeah my thoughts exactly as well. Culture fit along with other qualities just make sense to me if we have a chance to draft him.

This would make sense for them, but I don't know about trading OG for Duren

I guess they finally have enough switchable wings and can't pay OG
