    I know it's might be a stretch but it would be awesome to have two 1st round picks. I would like to get a big and a guard both with size and a 3 point shot.

    David Lock (who annoys me to no end, but whos opinion I can respect) has Davis pegged as another Derrick Favors. I don't see the Jazz taking him (not with having Favors and just drafting Lyles), but I can see the comparison, and what you are saying. Throw in the fact that he played a big part in a Tom Izzo team, and I think he could be as good a get as you will find in the draft.
    If you Jimmer it, they will come.

    Recent write up from 9th June is pretty good background. He measures well, runs well, youtube him theres a 3 or so minute highlight vid, seems to play with quite good aggression.

    He is athletic, runs the floor, he can get stronger, put up good stats against weaker competition. Wouldn't be mad if we picked him in the 2nd round.

    Isaiah Whitehead, SG from Seton Hall will visit NO on Tuesday.
    Projected to be in the second round. Mostly around 50-60.

    According to The Vertical - Malachi Richardson received the promise from MEM at 17th. If he will be there - they will take him.
    Also at 22 Hornets fell in love in Malcolm Brogdon?

    why this is important - because the draft is so fluid, that we can even get a Brice Johnson/Bembry type at 39...

    Me to. Hopefully I will still like this draft when it will finish...
    Hopefully with Pels at 6.

    Today there will be probably last pre-draft workout in NO.

    Isaiah Whitehead (SG, 6'5'') and Ryan Arcidiacono (PG - projected as undrafted) are expected.

    Apart from J.Murray and Brown who visited NO; Dunn and Hield had 'combined' workouts, prospects expected in the 2nd round by positions were:

    PG - Ferrell, Payton, Dejounte Murray (out of our range) (Arcidiacono)
    SG - Mc Clellan, Walkup, Cordiner, Cousins, Selden (Whitehead)
    SF - Ellis, T. Williams, Gbinije, Layman
    PF - Ibeh, Yabusele
    C - Tarczewski

    so basically we might be looking for a PG, SG and SF. not a big surprise apart from PG.
    Curious what Dell will do with our own PG and SF. Frazier and Ennis, who are RFA. Probably Dell will wait for the market to dictate the price...

    Why would we want to move away from Frazier unless it's to bring in a guy to move Jrue, or compete with Jrue? Frazier has that #2 spot locked up, so drafting a pg (unless for the two reasons mentioned above) seems like a waste. Draft 3 SFs and pray one of them works out.

    We have Douglas as well

    For the most part it looks like a lot of the point guards they worked out are a little bigger - gentry's system likes having guys that can play and guard multiple positions. I love Frazier and i agree he should be the backup PG but by Gentry's model he may want a bigger guy to run the point (but if that's the case why not just let Tyreke be your 6th man?)

    I don't see PG as a glaring need here, focus on wings and a backup PF or a raw, high upside C in the 2nd round

    Hate that he basically does what ESPN/NFLN used to do with the NFL draft. He gets the pick and announces it before it is announced on TV.

    Damian Jones. If we acquired another 1st, there's an interesting prospect.

    Also a victim of nepotism being from Baton Rouge and all..

    I'm just reading Phoenix is shopping picks 4 and 13 for Gordon Hayward.

    Is there any chance Pelicans can make a trade for picks 4 & 13?
