Who’s the better prospect?

You should take into account pure talent and potential to reach in 3 or 5 years and not ANY team needs.

Who would you choose?

avdija

Okongwu I think has the higher upside long term, but Avdija should be better right away.

I would go with Okongwu

No doubt I have Avdija here. Best case scenario Jayson Tatum imo. I like Okongwu, alot but I kind of feel like people are expecting too much from him. If the T-Wolves keep their pick I think Avdija is the best choice for them shortterm and longterm. I have him as the drafts 3rd best prospect behind Wiseman and Edwards.

To me Deni could be like Mike Miller and Okongwu could be like Bam Adebayo to me.

I think Bam is a great ceiling for Okongwu. Mike Miller was a good player, but Avdija is a different player. He’s got more upside than say a Mike Miller had, even when he was a prospect. Avdija is a better creator/facilitator than Miller was, and Avdija is and underrated defender.
Who the better prospect is between Okongwu and Avdija is to be determined. I have them in the same draft tier myself. If I had to choose, it’s about which team is drafting which player.

[JCliff24Participant]

Okongwu for sure.

[nbarelliParticipant]

I haven’t seen enough of Avdija but Okongwu is looking like he could turn into Bam.
