    First two mocks were more of the pen and paper variety, third one goes online. The diaper dandy draft is proving difficult yet fun to mock as its unpredictable. Don’t mind the 2nd round, haven’t worked on it much yet.

    Comments and recommendations are appreciated as I look to nail down my final mock for next week.

    I actually really like your top 10. To me, Dunn, Jamal, and Buddy could all easily be switched around (I’d probably switch Buddy and Jamal in yours, even though I want Jamal in Minny) so it’s kind of a crapshoot, but I’d say a pretty good top 10

     I’m not saying you do but the TWolves have to be somewhat delusional to think Lavine is going to be a PG. 

    What about Dunn makes you think he can play the two effectively? The one thing he can’t do is stretch the floor. 

    I’m not a fan of Poeltl to Bucks. You don’t need someone to come off the bench who also can’t defend the pick and roll behind Monroe. I’m also just not a fan of Poeltl in general though. 

    I like Baldwin to Jazz. Can come off the bench and help spacing and can defend two positions. 

    I’m a Phoenix native and I hate the idea of them taking two foreign guys in the lottery. 

    I could be wrong but I doubt Valentine gets past Pistons.

      Lol exactly, LaVine should never be the 1 and Dunn should never be the 2. Switch those and they’d be killer together because of LaVine’s scoring and shooting ability and Dunn’s all around game, and they’d easily be one of the most explosive backcourts.

    Hope you’re right about Luwawu falling to the Sixers. Would love for them to get two of Luwawu, LeVert or Richardson with their 2nd and 3rd picks.

    I actually really like your mock and reasoning.

    But please do something for my suns at 13th, we ain’t drafting two 18yo croatian and turkish players in the lottery.

    Especially a 4 pts 1 reb SG when we have 4 players U-25 in the organisation, at that position.

    Give us another big, or a bigger wing more nba ready, prince worked out, Luwawu is coming in the next days, both are well rounded players, D factor(is badly needed).

    For the bigs they worked out skal, ellenson, sabonis, maker, Jones(i want davis personally).

    "Recommandations"

    Stash korkmaz with the 3rd pick of the nuggz/celts, or the 2 late sixers picks, 19-26 is his range, didn’t deserve more than that IMO.

    Ullis with size, weight and now health concerns should be a 2nd rounder, joining Levert, Zim and co.

    Hernangomez is a late 1st, no doubt about it, a team between the pacers and spurs will take him, he could fit with PG or kawhi as a tweener,  a quality stash for other teams(celts-sixers-suns), his skill set should translate well in the modern nba.

    Baldwin, if he was going to be drafted by the Jazz, would hardly see the floor. They have Exum, Mack and Burke at the 1 and Hood and Burks at the 2. Dude would be absolutely buried
