2026 NBA draft thread

[Winter]

Evans is high on my list for the Mavs pick at 29/30. I don't know who I like more between him and Swain...

Swain is a Junior (20) but a 6'8 G/F (Wing) type that can be a 2-way guy. His outside shot is coming around also. In his last 5 games he's 8/18 from deep. If he were even a good 3PT shooter, he'd be talked about in the Top-10.

Evans is a Sophomore (20) but a 6'6 SG type that is a shot maker (taker). Future 6th man role? His shot profile is something the Mavs don't currently have and would be a welcomed addition. He's 15/31 from 3PT in his last 5 games. If he can keep it up and get close to that 40% number like last year, on more attempts, I could see him in going in the low 20's this draft.

I was thinking almost the same. I decided I'd probably go with Evans.

He seems confident with that shot. Duke guy. He has a big-time high school history too (North Carolina Mr. Basketball, Mcdonald's All-American).
