Has us taking Jahmi´us Ramsey at #19. Looks like an athletic mix between Westbrook/Mitchell. Very fast and build like a tank. Not sure his touch and finishing around the rim would hold up at NBA level, but that´s the type of player you take a chance at #19, when you have no good trades. He could excel next to Luka with an explosive first step and shooting 43% from three on five attempts per game.
I will be pleasantly surprised if the Mavs actually keep their first-rounder. I think that's likely now unless they can get a third star, because THJ isn't the liability he was going into the season. I would hope the Mavs could re-sign him in '21, if they can't get anything better, at a significantly reduced rate.
If we hit on one of those two picks, then you suddenly got a lot more trade ammunition for later on than on draft night. I hope we keep an open mind about holding on to those selections.
