    No mock draft has us taking Collins at 15, its just where his average falls.

    Isn't DraftExpress pretty respected. Didn't see them on the above list.

    So here's a question; do trades around this time of year involving draft picks always happen on draft day or do they ever happen a couple days before?

    I could be wrong, but I thought there was basically some sort of moratorium leading up to the draft, where they're basically put out there as likely to happen, but not announced until draft day or until July 1 (and don't become official until the FA period officially begins).

    Seems like even on draft day, they announce deals but say the can't become official until so and so happens.

    Did I quick wiki search and looks like 1-2 trades before the draft is typical. Only a couple significant ones in the last 6-7 years though and zero involving top 10 picks.

    Bolden is clearly talented, but there's just something about him that makes me want to root against him. Carries himself with an air of arrogance that I really don't like.

    I think he's a guy that can make it in the league, but much like his time at UCLA, is he willing to bide his time and put in the necessary work during those first couple years or does he bolt back overseas if things don't go his way? He's a first round talent, but I think there's enough questions surrounding him that keeps him out.

    You can't hold it against him, he's a Lakers fan and the column was Blazers colors.

    If they're all available like in this chart, I'd take Justin Jackson, Kyle Kuzma and Caleb Swanigen.

    I like him, he lacks strength but has very good understanding on defense, he could be a nice player
