@Ary_Report
The Washington Wizards have a laser on Tre Johnson at No. 6, per sources.


RE: 2025 draft thread: THE MAVS SELECT COOPER FLAGG - SleepingHero - 06-25-2025

That pick feels like Washington had their pants down.

Not sure how Tre Johnson fixes anything on their team given they have Middleton, CJ McCollum, Marcus Smart, AND Coulibaly.

They did not expect Utah to take Bailey.

The Suns are very active right now in trade talks, per @Gambo987.

A player trade along with a potential draft pick deal could be on the table in Phoenix.

#10+who gets them what?

Does Brooklyn want Beal? Brooks?

NOP takes Jeremiah Fears.

Pretty interesting...

"This was not one of his preferred destinations," ESPN's Jonathan Givony says of Ace Bailey in Utah.

Stephen Curry tried the same 16 years ago, Minni thought they shouldn't draft a player that doesn't want them, GSW didn't give a damn that he wanted the Knicks.

You draft based on talent, not on preference. Ainge surely know that.


RE: 2025 draft thread: THE MAVS SELECT COOPER FLAGG - SleepingHero - 06-25-2025

Im shocked/also not shocked Brooklyn went for Demin.

WAY WAY higher than most mocks had him at. But I see the vision. He was one of my favorite dudes for the mavs to target in the middle/late first round.

This is a stretch. But one that makes sense. Not only because of talent, but also because they have so many FRPs they can reach for a couple of them.

“Outside of Dylan [Harper] and Cooper [Flagg], he has the most upside," said BYU head coach Kevin Young.

Meet Egor Demin, the Cougars’ supersized playmaker, who’s worked out for teams all across the second half of next week’s NBA Draft lottery: https://tinyurl.com/4ezvff2k

The BEST thing about the Mavs having the #1 pick…zero need to watch whatever this garbage is that ESPN chooses to roll out there.

It annoys me no other network can host the draft. 

Why is Stephen A Smith on my screen man.


RE: 2025 draft thread: THE MAVS SELECT COOPER FLAGG - SleepingHero - 06-25-2025

Raptors whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat????

Collin Murray-Boyles goes to Toronto for the first reach


RE: 2025 draft thread: THE MAVS SELECT COOPER FLAGG - omahen - 06-25-2025

Will Toronto draft Maluach and trade down to get what was supposed to be their guy Essngue? Chicago, Phoenix all looking at centers right behind Toronto

Edit: or not Smile Maluach slipping


RE: 2025 draft thread: THE MAVS SELECT COOPER FLAGG - omahen - 06-25-2025

What will Phoenix do now? Will the most all-in team go with a center prospect or do we have something else in play? I wouldn't be surprised by first trade here

PHX going to get a pretty damn good center right now. Maluach is going to be a player

2 bad picks. I wonder what they are sending out as they still need to get under the 2nd apron


RE: 2025 draft thread: THE MAVS SELECT COOPER FLAGG - omahen - 06-25-2025

Good move for Phoenix though, if Williams can stay healthy
