Fox...monk...lauri..leftover of top 10
They gotta go with a wing with their first pick since neither Isaac or Tatum will be there at 10. That means they have to take whichever of the Smith, Ntilkina or Monk trio is potentially left at 10. I'd probably take Isaac, but seeing what will be left at 10 I think they're going to go with Tatum as they will value his offensive game, over waiting to see if Isaac can develop into a scorer, you know Tatum will probably be a 20ppg scorer in his career. The 10 spot just becomes a case of going with whatever between those 3 is left, ideally you want it to be Monk or Smith as Ntilkina is going to take some time to develop and he may never be an offensive force like Smith and Monk have the potential to be.
I wouldn't trade the 5/10 for Fox either, the Kings need all the picks they have this year and next since they will lose it in 2019.

Overall Nice Guy
Just being bad and letting young players get a shot helps a lot.
Getting the first rounder for Boogie was a great move too, and yet another confusing move from the Pelicans.
Lock him and Ingram in a gym with Kobe for 3 months and itd be like when Goku and Gohan were in the hyperbolic time chamber.
I love Lonzo but Josh could be a killer. Magic your move
Watched the first 3 plays of that highlight and it showed me all I need to know.
Those fades looked smooth and easy like Sunday morning
At 5 go with Fox if he's still there, if not then DSJ. At 10 go with Lauri, if he's gone then reach a little for Justin Jackson.
Kind of build around WCS like Dwight in Orlando with a bunch of shooters. But have a slashing PG like Fox or DSJ that can utilize the space since WCS isn't really an offensive threat.

Been against Monk for awhile but this article makes me a bit curious. Some of the on ball moves weren't bad at all at least going by these cherry picked clips. I dunno.

Both Lonzo and Josh are Lebron stans so either pick is gonna need a mentality change when they get in the door
.
But on the real both of them need to become more aggressive on the offensive end in the NBA. Especially Lonzo. You aint winning a ship with your best player being a passive pg in 2017

I truly don't understand why people say Markelle is a good fit with Boston but Lonzo isn't. Why isn't Lonzo a good fit with Boston? It's not like he's ball dominant
