2026 NBA draft thread

[Mavs2021]

So the draft where people were saying Cooper would have gone #6, is now not that strong. Funny how that works.

I still think the top 4 are ridiculously strong and that the NBA scouting usually does not let the special talent slip anymore. I´m not that married to the 8th or 9th pick. The isolation scoring stats of Anderson and Swain only reinforced my interest in them. I´m really so confused by Anderson. Best assist numbers in the class, good 3pt shooter on high volume, excellent iso scorer, younger than Burries and Philon. What am I missing?

If we move up, find an extra pick for Anderson and Swain is there at #30, we have a special core imho.

Swain
Flagg
Wilson
