    How would Dyson know if he had the greatest workout that the Pacers have seen? He's not been to all those other workouts to know lol.

    I think best outcome for me would be
    1) get Thybulle that fits in the Covington TPE so PHI can sign Tucker. Attach whatever draft compensation fits.

    2) draft any of the guards Sharpe/Mathurin at #7, or trading down to #10 and getting Hachimura for #7 and Keon, then drafting Sochan at #10.

    3) take on Hayward’s salary involving Bledsoe and other pieces for #13 and pick someone at #13. Any high upside guy would work for me. I could stomach draft Duren at #13, I do think he is a really exciting defensive prospect. Dieng. Trade down and get something with Jovic. Whoever is there and whoever we pick, I’ll put my trust in the new front office.

    So if all three happen, we end up with Thybulle, Hachimura, Sochan, and whoever is at #13.

    Hayward with an asset seems like a potential great use of Blazers financial flexibility. If his health is better he is a great starter, either to win with Dame or flip for another asset as OKC did with CP3. If Hayward sucks it's only one extra year, and you are still happy with whatever asset Charlotte gives up.

    People need to stop referring to Hayward with "if he's healthy." He's never been and never gonna be.

    I am becoming more and more petrified that Chet is going to slip and we will feel like we can't pass on him.

    He won't slip that far. He might even go #1.

    Taking Chet at 7 is a no brainer. His upside is too high.

    Dyson Daniels
    G League Ignite
    PG/SG
    Age: 19.2


    The Blazers are early in their rebuilding process and can afford to swing for the fences for a prospect like Daniels, who possesses significant upside but will need time to fill out his frame and become a more dynamic scorer. Daniels would be an excellent understudy for Damian Lillard while still having the length and defensive versatility to operate in the same backcourt with him and Anfernee Simons. Daniels doesn't need the ball to make his presence felt, as he's an excellent decision-maker, passer, cutter and rebounder and a rapidly improving shooter. He defends everyone from the point of attack to bigger wing-forwards and makes quite a few plays off the ball.


    ***Worth pointing out that Sharpe is "on the board" for us at this pick***
