Certainly an interesting dilemma. Assuming the trade that needs a gazillion picks is not on the table, I would take the #7 pick and continue with my "team patience" strategy. Wiggins is not that bad compared to what KP brought on the table and we still have cap space for another serious player and center. I didn't do any work on draft so I have no idea who would be available, but a quick look at possibly available centers give me Kai Jones as an interesting prospect (one could even likely trade down from #7 to get him).
