My votes go for these 3, A good young backup point Guard could be what they want here.

 I like siakam here. Frontcourt depth could be an area of need and he has good potential for this point in the draft.

2. Gbinje

3. Brogdon

taking Davis at 11 seems less likely if Poetl or Sabonis are available who are more ready to back up Vucevic from the gate.

if they keep the pick and took a center prospect at 11 they go defensive sf here:

Finney-Smith, Cook,Gbinije

Barber, Onuaku, or Gbinje, they need either a score first point guard off the bench or more defense.

nobody will probably agree with me but i think they need a stretch 4 so jared uthoff is my pick.

A PG who actually has to be guarded would be nice. Cornelie is an upside stretch 4

Their frontcourt is already thin, and with Nicholson, Dedmon and Smith all free agents, I think they have to go big here. They could also look to add depth at SG/SF or upgrade the backup PG role. 

My vote:

1) Pascal Siakam

2) Michael Gbinje 

3) Cat Barber
