Realistically, what would be a draft you're happy with?

9: Marcus Morris

A few weeks ago I was completely against taking Morris here, but the more highlights I watch the more I come to like him. He seems good at getting offensive rebounds and isn't afraid to go back up with it. I've also seen him operating from the top of the key some and he has a smooth jumper. He could be a nice, versatile player for us.

19: Marshon Brooks or Shelvin Mack

Brooks if he's there, but with how he has been performing as of late I think it's 50/50. We need an energetic scorer coming off the bench to provide a nice backup behind Hendo.

I wouldn't mind a Euro center either or Tristan Thompson at 9. Obviously if Kawhi Leonard is there we grab him but that is highly unlikely. I like Morris's versatility a lot, I didn't know he played like that honestly.

My incredible interest in this draft has me looking up mock drafts on a daily basis. It has become evident to me that beyond the first two picks. Nobody has a clue what is going to happen.

Honestly I would be happy with a plethora of people.

At 9 I would say my top 3 are as follows

1. Kemba Walker (Yes there are mocks out there that say he could fall to us although unlikely)

2. Alec Burks

3. Jordan Hamilton

I honestly don't see whats so great about Marcus Morris and I would be OK with us picking him but I would feel like we missed an opportunity to have something better.

At 19 it goes

1. Bismack Biyombo

2. Marshon Brooks

3. Chris Singleton

4. Nikola Vucevic

Vucevic has been shooting up boards and I personally think he would be a very nice center for us.

There one player that I would just be infuriated with us selecting is Jimmer Fredette. I think he is going to be an absolute scrub in the NBA, feel free to hate.

Rick Bonnell was on Busting Loose with Frank and Moose (WFNZ) yesterday and said the cats really like Singleton (F-FSU), Brooks (G-Prov), and Vucevic (C-USC)..fwiw..Singleton paried with Hendo would make one of the best defensive shooting guard/small forward combo's in the league...

Agreed. Too bad the Bobs would lose most games 70-65 with a lineup featuring Hendo and Singleton. If Boris loses his job to Tyrus and Kwame is still the starter at C, yikes! That team couldn't score!

I agree, but hopefully hendo can build his offensive rep into a viable second option. Marshon brooks makes more sense to me though

Whatever nets us a scorer and bigman. SF and C prefered....

9.1 Kawhi Leonard SF * will probably be off the board

9.2 Chris Singleton SF * im high on him

9.3 Marcus Morris PF * solid ready to contribute right away

9.4 Jordan Hamilton SF * possibly the best scorer in the draft

9.5 Tristan Thompson PF * reminds me of Tyrus Thomas

19.1 Bismack Biyombo PF/C * a steal if he is still here

19.2 Marshon Brooks SG * one of the best scorers in draft

19.3 Kenneth Faried PF/C * hustle, simply put

19.4 Klay Thompson SG * the 3 pt shooter Silas wants

19.5 Nikola Vucevic PF/C * potential, simply put

I'm really warming up to the idea of Chris Singleton at number 9. Singleton is tabbed as the best defensive player in the draft and from what I've read he has a decent offensive game, just had trouble showcasing it in the slow FSU offense. Either way, he could work on his offensive game similar to Hendo.

At 19 I would be happy with Marshon Brooks or Nikola Vucevic. Brooks could be the dynamic scorer we need to build around or Vucevic could be the solid (probably not a superstar but a solid rebounder and scorer) to hold down the C position. If we could only get both somehow...

    • https://nfltraderumors.co/2026-nfl-draft-grades-for-all-32-teams/      Grade: B+ Best Pick: Sam Hecht Biggest Reach (consensus rank): Jackson Kuwatch (NR) It's easy to love what Carolina did. The Panthers traded four times but ended the draft with the same number of selections that they started with and in approximately the same ranges. They did not take a player ahead of the consensus until Kuwatch at No. 227, and it's easy to see how he fell through the cracks playing at Miami of Ohio. He's a high-end athlete, though, and has a chance to develop, which is a fine profile for a seventh-rounder. Freeling and Brazzell also checked the high-end athleticism upside boxes for the Panthers. Carolina let the board come to them in the first round and could have a long-term solution at left tackle, which is a hard position to fill. Brazzell slid because of some maturity concerns as well as the difficulty in projecting receivers from Tennessee's Mickey Mouse offense. At 6-4, 200 pounds and 4.37 in the 40, though, the upside is undeniable. On top of that, the landed three starters on Day 3. Normally that's a high and unrealistic bar, but Hecht and Wheatley were both firmly inside the top 100 on the consensus board and have paths to win starting competitions. Lee fits the scheme well and has some interesting traits as an outside corner. What stopped me from a full-out A grade is not loving the Hunter pick, though he does fill a need to replace DT A'Shawn Robinson. There were prospects at other needs positions I would have been more jazzed about. The Brazzell pick is also an interesting risk for a team that's still in building mode, even coming off an NFC South title. Still, I'm nitpicking
    • I was just a teenager when I joined in 2013. I've loved the many opinions on this forum, even though several are infuriating. I've had several bad takes, myself,  that I've hopefully grown out of over the years.
