So now it's Len and Bennett that may take slight falls down the board.UNLV draft prospect Anthony Bennett will have rotator cuff surgery on his left shoulder Wednesday, agent Jeff Schwartz told ESPN.com.
Bennett will miss all NBA pre-draft workouts, the NBA draft combine and summer league, Schwartz said. The surgery could keep Bennett out of commission up to four months.
"I don't know if people know — I dislocated my pinkie finger. And [Tyreke] told me, 'You wanna go home or you wanna be here?' I want to be here. And he said, 'All right, then go tape it up and let's play. Let's go. We not stoppin' at no stores. Straight gas. That's what we do, just keep going.'"

this isnt good, we need people to take bennett and len incase we dont get lucky in the lottery

Getting lucky in the lottery is not slipping to #6. Anything else is almost lagniappe.
If we are to snag Burke or Oladipo, gotta get a top 3 pick.
What's our position now? AT 6?Originally Posted by Eman5805
I'm not sure Burke becomes a top 3 pick though. I think if we're 4 we can snag Burke.
5, as long as we stay at 5 we are fine and will get a very good player. the trick is we cannot go under 5.
As long as we get top 5 we can get Noel, Mclemore, Burke, Porter, Oladipo. I would take any single one of them in a split second, preferably anyone of those 5 besides Noel.

If we get leapfrogged gotta take Shabazz at #6.
I thought we could only get a top 3 pick than 5-8 depending on if any of the teams 6-14 jumps into the top 3 or not.
We can get any pick but the 4th. I posted up the percentages, ill do it again now, gimme 5 mins.
That's true. Weird rules.
Being in the 5th slot here are our percentages:
we are guaranteed to land atleast the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 5th, 6th, 7th or 8th pick. We have a 55% chance to land a top 5 pick, 36% chance to land the 6th pick and a 9% chance to land either the 7th or 8th pick.
1. 8.8%
2. 9.7%
3. 10.7%
4. 0 %
5. 26.1%
6. 36%
7. 8.4%
8. 0.4%
9. 0
10. 0
11. 0

Gonna be fun to watch the lottery and know that once we get to 6 and 5 if we don't see our names, we're guaranteed a top 3.
It basically win a top 3 pick or you stay where you are or move down slightly.
Very well dressed. In sales?
Lol know I will be applying to physical therapy school soon but everyone i know thinks im an idiot for not going into business lol.Very well dressed. In sales
Yup, just like last year, cant wait! I'd be thrilled with the 3rd pick

It's funny but that's really is the best position in this draft.
The lotto was on my birthday last year. Was pretty special.
Yeah, you're not "forced" to take anyone.
agreed, its the best value wise, if we land the #1 pick I would really hope we could trade down to 3 or 4.
First 4 picks as of now I'd say are Noel, Mclemore, Porter and Oladipo. I'm hoping for a top 4 pick if not we will be with Burke, Bennett or Bazz. Not to say those players aren't good but PLEASE get a top 4.

I say we grab burke, and try to buy/trade another pick for bennet or or len
agree, if the order stays as is:
magic - mclemore
bobcats - noel
cavs - porter
suns - oladipo
peliCANS- burke
I have a feeling we won't draft anyone we can't work out. Williams and Demps seems pretty high on seeing the prospects abilities first hand.
All I know is May 21st can't get here soon enough for me.
