AggressivelyStupid posted:Trae Young at 5 seems high Who'd you take over him? I don't see anyone else clearly better. He might be the most skilled guy in the draft other than maybe Luca from a dribble/pass/shoot perspective which gives him a pretty high ceiling

El Gallinero Gros posted:Bamba, perhaps? I like Bamba a lot but there's a super low floor there. Trae seems like he'll be able to contribute something with his shooting and passing even if he's not a star, and it's not super hard to imagine a world where he's Steve Nash

TV Zombie posted:Is bagley bad? He's not bad but he's deeply flawed. He might get 20 and 10 because he's super athletic, smooth, and plays hard but he can't defend at all, has an iffy jumper, and can't finish with his right hand.

Can play backup 5 too of they stagger them or the other team goes small. I don't see how it happens though, utah doesn't have any great assets to give back that they'd be willing to trade
