Will leave this here for anyone to discuss. Also, It seems like after all these years nbadraft.net finally decided today to launch a new website design! Site that overlaps if you are not using mobile.  And as usual, you can check Brian Scalabrine's non secret site www.thestepien.com/. |

Next year draft is so bad that an Argentinian might actually make it to the 1st round and he doesn't even have much 1st team experience in Barcelona. I don't know much at all about him though. If I was still a GM, Allan Houston would say I should know exactly who he is and how Sergio Llull was doing just before the virus. 
I should check but I think the only Argentinian to ever make it to the 1st round was Carlos Delfino.
Don't get me wrong though, my county does produce good basketball players from time to time but they are not NBA draft material in terms of hype. Both, Ginobili and Scola were late 2nd rounders. Nocioni didn't even make it. Same for Prigioni and Herrmann.

Idk, I feel like Euro ball is pretty weak right now (with Mirotic being an obvious exception [and interesting implications if the season starts back up at some point]). And it might get even weaker with the NBL and now G league options for prospects.

Suns should sign this guy and try to pull off a trade like Memphis tried when they confused Dillon and Marshon Brooks. |

About euros, I sort of have this idea that every young big man that does acceptable in the ACB is probably going to have a good NBA career. Even when the player doesn't look like an NBA prospect. Then again, that is mostly true for other positions as well.
Marc Gasol for example was overlooked because he was fat and out of shape but you look at his acb stats from before he was drafted and they are alright. Same happened with Porzingis and others.
And if you play for Real Madrid or Barcelona it must be pretty much like playing for an NBA squad or bigger. Those are mostly known for their football clubs but still you are part of something huge. For instances, Doncic went to dinner several times with Cristiano Ronaldo and company.

This seems like one of those drafts where the best player ends up being someone you never heard off. I publicly commit myself to donate as a sign of admiration $1k Billy Bucks to whoever that gets that player. I have like over $70k so that shouldn't be a problem. |

Deni Avdija seems like a real mystery to me like I feel he has a real high ceiling but also a really low floor. Honestly, He seems like a cool guy so I hope he becomes good. Plus it is about time Maccabi Tel Aviv produces an NBA star and Israel for that matter as they really seem to live, love and sweat Basketball.

I think he is similar to the way Cedi Osman played during the last FIBA world cup. Worst case would be Mario Hezonja lol |

As I do not have any draft picks in this league for years to come -(smile)- I thought I would provide you with a draft guide developed by the Golden Stare organization. Enjoy and please feel free to use should you believe our organization is capable of providing such a list that may make some sense to some of you. (only 1st round provided here)
1. Anthony Edwards, SG 197 pts.
2. James Wiseman, C 196 pts.
3. Lamelo Ball, PG 195 pts.
Very, very close raze here - can go any which way depending on need.
4. Killian Hayes, PG 187 pts.
5. Obi Toppin, PF !78 pts.
6. Oneka Okongwu, PF/C 173 pts.
7. Deni, Avdija, SF 168 pts.
8. Isaac Okoro, SF 163 pts.
9. Tyrese Halliburton, PG 162 pts.
End of Tier 1 players.
10. Devin Vassell, SG/SF 147 pts.
11. Cole Anthony, PG 132 pts.
12. R.J. Hampton, SG/P 121 pts.
13. Tyrese Maxey, SG 116 pts.
14. Aaron Nesmith, SF 107 pts.
15. Saddiq Bey, SF 97 pts.
16. Josh Green, SG 97 pts.
17. Kira Lewis Jr., PG 86 pts.
18. Theo Maledon, PG 83 pts.
19. Jami'us Ramsey, SG 65 pts.
20. Nico Mannion, PG 60 pts.
End of Tier 2.
21. Jaden McDaniels, PF 63 pts.
22. Patrick Williams, SF 56 pts.
23. Jalen Smith, PF 39 pts.
24. Isaiah Stewart, PF 30 pts.
End of Tier 3.
25. Precious Achiuwa, PF 72 pts.
26. Akleksej Pokusevski, PF 60 pts.
27. Tyler Bey, SF 43 pts.
28. Tyrell Terry, PG 42 pts.
29. Tre Jones, PG 33 pts.
30. Vernon Carter Jr. C 18 pts.
PS! This is by no means an attempt by a new guy to teach a bunch of experienced GMs anything that they in all likelihood already know.

Steve Kerr I really do not have a top 5, but you can take the top 3 guys here and add Killian Hayes to them and you will have my top 4 as far as the 5th guys go you can take any of the top 10 and add him to the list, it will really depend on your need. |

It is based on the research I have done primarily on the net visiting various mock drafts and big boards. I should properly mention that Tier 1 and 2 are consensus picks whereas Tier 3 are picks by at least 75% and Tier 4 is with less than 50% maybe somewhat speculative picks, some pick them fairly high other totally ignores them. I realize not very scientific, but has worked fairly well for me on the past. Unfortunately no one has had the opportunity to watch college basketball for a while and we nay not be able to see any of these players in action prior to the draft, so I believe the upcoming draft will be a very interesting one in most fantasy leagues. |

Plus some of the biggest draft steals in previous Seasons came from new guys. You should check the Draft Mock we did weeks ago. <- dynasty720.proboards.com/thread/7687/d720-2020-mock-draftThat one is actually pretty close to your list. Only big difference is with Patrick Williams at #12 but we went for positional need having him listed as SF/PF. |

Lamelo joining MJ's team. Looking forward to Lavar finally meeting Jordan. He owes Lavar a 1 on 1.

Patrick Williams at #4 was pretty surprising. Maybe, they could have traded down and still get him. You would think a new management wouldn't take such a gamble.

Not really Kong, their were plenty of people mocking him in the 4-7 range with the pistons trying really hard to trade up for him. So if the Bulls wanted him they had no choice but to take him at 4! |

maybe, don't know. Wonder if it is true that they offered #4 + Wendell Carter Jr. for #2.
Maybe they didn't have clear favorite so they went with youngest available out of their options.
Interestingly enough, no top 15 pick was traded.

When he was selected it was hard not to notice all those pilled drinks in the background, lololol. By the way, you have #7 and your boy went #7. Maybe it happens... |
