That's funny because the Reddit types on the Doncic hypetrain said over the weekend that Suns should take Luka first because he's the most ready to contribute right away while Ayton would be a "project" you'd have to develop :skip:

These guys really don't know shyt lol

There both ready to go, Luka won Euro basket AcBc league and is in the playoff in another league he’s not coming over here to not trained. He’s played 90 games against better competition in the last calendar year.

Bagley is nothing special, he will get you some rebounds and putbacks, but that is about it.
I wouldn’t go this far but I don’t think he’s hyped up as so dudes on here. Bad footwork, no go to moves that will work, just an athlete that can’t really dribble can’t really shoot, can’t teally pass. The league is moving away from these kinds of players. His potential is tied to if he can play Center and shoot deep jumpers well that will open up the game for him.

The closer it gets to next Thursday, the more smokescreens will cloud judgement. In the case of the 4th pick to the Grizz, I feel they want the Hawks and Kings to fall in love with MPJ, J3, or Mo Bamba so Bagley or Doncic can fall to them at 4. They'll be crazy to trade down...and we are tired of Chris Wallace f***ing things up. He's on a very short leash and this pick will ultimately make or break his future with the organization, so it has to be a home run pick.
