2026 NBA draft thread

[khaled1987]

My favorite choices for 9:

1) Wagler- I see him similar to Kon.   Not what Kon showed he was this year, but what I thought he would be entering the league.   Probably slim chance he makes it to 9.

2)  Acuff-  Wow, is his highlights fun.   Defense is a huge concern but I would still role the dice on him.    Probably a slim chance he makes it to 9.

3) Flemings-  I don't think he will be a lead point guard, but I don't think this team really wants that.   He can run a pick and roll offense and attack with his speed.   He doesn't turn the ball over.  The size is a big concern.  Ideally, you pair him with a bigger guard.   Probably the best chance he makes it to 9.

If all three are gone, I am in a difficult spot.    I have gone back and forth on 3-4 guys.   I am hoping one of the three above is available and Dallas agrees with this ranking.

At 30 or move up, I like Karaban (may be at 30), Okorie (will need to move up), Anderson (will need to move up), Peat (will need to move up a little).   Those are my top 4.

I have the same 3, but Acuff at the top of them.

After those 3, I've Philon as my top pick, with Morez being another intriguing option.
