    Castleton....there is a nice sleeper pick at #43. :twothumbs: Might not even get Drafted, but is a high IQ, efficient type of player that could be a surprise.

    I think Turner is slightly better than Nurk. I don't know if he is Ant + 1st round pick better.

    Agree with the Grant "overpay". Will he be the lowest rebounding starting 'power' forward in the league?

    Why not Jordan Miller at 43?

    #3 is going to be Miller.

    I just don't think we make the pick. We will either trade down (for 4+20+ stuff or 6+11+stuff), or out.

    #23.

    Chicago will take Leonard Miller.

    43

    We take Tristan Vukcevic.

    Am I the only one who thinks Zach Edey will be good? I hope we take him at 43.

    Never mind, a quick googling and I saw that he’s going back to Purdue.

    Jake Stephens is the 'Zach Edey' who will be in the Draft. 7', with a 7'10" wingspan but a very good 3-pt shooter. Very little explosiveness.....he's just big, with range.

    We take Miller, and if no knock your socks off trade is there, we keep him.
