    Having amen and lively would set the foundation of a great defense. You got a potentially great POA defender and an elite rim protector. They could cause nightmares for offenses for a very long time

    Agreed. Amen and Shae will both lock down the guard spots and are naturally a fit on offense. Lively will only get stronger. Lively accepts his role and will potentially be great at it (rim protection, switch-ability, lob threat, set screens). Whatever 3 point shot he develops would be a bonus.

    there are times when Lively looks like Nerlens Noel.

    Others when he looks like Robert Swift.

    Neither one of those comparisons are all that exciting.

    Noel was one of the best P&R defenders in the league when healthy. Agile enough to switch and had elite rim protection skills. With the success of Walker Kessler last year, I would take a chance at him if he's around 23.

    Still, hard to overlook the fact that he was so highly touted going to Duke but only managed to average 5pts a game.

    What do people think about Jaime Jaquez Jr.? Or is he just destined to show up on the Lakers and be their next cult hero?

    He’s a gamer - aggressive and with a high bbiq.

    He’s near the top of my list for this pick.

    His stock has been steadily rising, he may not be there at #23.
