I watched the Draft Lottery with a friend and once I saw the Kings jumped into the top 3 I told him Vlade would be the type to take Doncic over Ayton 1st overall. This is why I wanna see Pheonix take it out of Vlade's hands and take Doncic 1st. Nothing personal Suns brehs. I just don't want Doncic 2nd overall. Like I said earlier, trade back and add assets if you want Doncic that bad. Doncic would take the ball outta Fox's hands and Fox isn't good enough off ball yet.
Or they will just play Rockets ball which is PnR you to death and go iso when that's not available.

Hawks fan here. I'm against drafting Bagley for the sole reason that the last time we had a top 3 pick we drafted a Marvin... and it didn't go well.
Last time we had a top 3 pick, it was Horford and it worked out well till we did a terrible job of building around him.

Also, Fox, Bogdonovic and Mason can handle the ball, so the Kings don't really need that. The need a big that can score. That's Bagley. Allows them to have Z-Bo do bench-duty., and if Giles is healthy, Bagley can play some Center.
None of these guys are as good at playmaking as Doncic. Doncic is nice af. If he was there at #3. I would be okay with it but of course I want Bagley.

I like JJJ but we got to take whoever is left between Ayton and Doncic.
Ayton is gone. I don't hate Doncic. If the concensus is Doncic, I'm with it. I wanna hear what everyone else thinks first. Bagley or Jaren Jackson Jr could be possible. Never know with this franchise. I really hope Sacramento winds up with Ayton tho.
