With pick 133, the Orlando Magic select...


P.J. Washington


Washington had a solid rookie season starting 57 games while averaging 12.2 ppg, 5.4 rpg, 2.1 apg and shooting 37.4% from three. He averaged nearly a block and a steal per game as well. He's mainly a power forward, but with a 7'2.5 wingspan he could play some small ball center. I expect a jump in year two for Washington.

PG: Kemba Walker
SG: James Harden
SF: OG Anunoby/Derrick Jones Jr.
PF: Jerami Grant/P.J. Washington
C: DeAndre Ayton

I almost took him in round 6 and then again in round 7. Really good pick.

We're almost done with round 7 and no rookies have been taken yet. This has to be the longest we've gone without a rookie taken.

i was almost grabbing him waaaaaay earlier. nice, hard playing - and with respectable D - shooting ace. he dropped nearly 50 spots this year in our draft even though he had nearly the same kind of production as 2018-19. the only reason i took nance over him at 127 is because the remaining pool of decent wings is IMO way deeper than the pool of remaining PFs.

Are you talking this upcoming draft (didn’t know we could take them, said 2020 season) or last year? Zion, Ja, RJ and Herro went already

With the 137th pick, the Boston Celtics select:

Mo Bamba

Image

Mo Bamba provides my team some much needed front court length, athleticism, shot making ability, and potential. He’s in a bit of a black hole on that Orlando roster behind $100M Vuc, yet Mo has too much promise to pass up at this point in the draft and with the roster I have in place. Maybe something shakes out where he gets more PT and an opportunity to bust out. Crazier things have happened.

I said it earlier in the thread, but this guy would be one of my main trade targets for the Wolves.

PG: CP3/Murray
SG: Dinwiddie/Kennard
SF: Durant/Gallinari
PF: Millsap/Clarke
C: Adams/Bamba

Superstar: Check
Floor general: Check
Shooting: Check
Defense: Check
Depth: Check
Versatility: Check
Athleticism: Check

This team has been fun to build.

That completes my draft.

Good luck to you all. I’ll make sure to check-in in a few months to see how this draft is progressing! :)

i think mo's going to take a step up this year. was hoping he'd last a little longer - but good on ya. he posted the other day that he's added 28 pounds over the covid break (which he needed) and most of it's muscle.

what's really going to be interesting is if bamba has a better defensive year than, ahem, jonathan isaac.

I’d send Vuc and Gordon out of town in Orlando. Build around an Isaac/Bamba 4/5.

Try to get some defense on the perimeter with those trade chips and suddenly the team has an identity and direction.

Admittedly I did see that. And it swayed me. It was between Bamba and another “hopper” big, but when I saw Mo committed to the cause, he was mine!!!

Upcoming draft. We've always taken rookies in the upcoming draft because the draft is based on next season, not this season.
