Honestly I like Beauchamp if he can shoot. The Wiz have a lot of guys on the wings who aren't great defenders. He'd probably be the best wing defender right away. I didn't realize he would be 22 when the season starts though...he would be a big gamble at #9
If they trade down, I'm fine with him. We really are lacking on SF/SG types... we have so many PFs (Rui, Kuzma, Deni)..

Only Deni can guard wings and he's still got a lot of work to do.

@fah I'm seeing shaeden Sharpe hasn't been selected and seeing old footage of him looking like as athletic as ant man/ Zach lavine means he's first on my board.

Then Dyson Daniels because of structurally how that will change our team defensively.

Next sochan. And he and Dyson are 2a and 2b. Big forward who also can be very important defensively

Tari Eason close to the 2a/b/c. He has upside but not sure about his instincts. But he's big and strong and will be able to be a plus defender right away while giving you some offense. His footwork,handle and fouls need to be cut down..but watching footage a lot of his fouls were offensive fouls getting into the paint. And a lot of his turnovers were travelling calls on the catch.

Open to other ideas . I'm willing to draft a big so we can move gaff and especially Porzingis around like chess pieces so he doesn't get pushed around and get hurt. And imo Porzingis is our best player.

Eason. You know he can defend, rebound, and he shot decently from 3.

I watched him in college and was impressed...His measurables are very similar to young KL...I could def see him moving up tho

I wanted Maruthin too but he's projected top 8

Obaji is cool though his upside isn't high but he's a team builder....I like Mark Williams as another option but the roster is already clogged with bigs..

After Chet,Smith,Banchero Ivey and Murray all these dudes are on the same tier ..This shyt is strange.

For example at SG Hardy,Sharpe,Mathurin ,Davis ,Branham and Daniels can all go in any order and I don’t know how you can say picking one over the other would be a reach..Gonna be very team specific .

Ivey probably goes 4 whether its the Kings picking or someone else trading up

I’m going to be so pissed if Pistons draft Murray. Trading Grant just to draft a player who is a less athletic version of Grant makes zero sense. There probably going to miss out on Ivey. I’d be okay with Sharpe, Mathurin, Duran, or even Daniels. Just hate the Murray pick. We’d have least athletic team in NBA

OKC is taking Holmgren...

I can see HOU taking Ivey. Banchero will drop.

Not saying it's not possible, but Houston taking Ivey would be absolutely wild. He doesn't really address any of their issues while creating a whole new one, unless they just REALLY wanna get rid of KPJ. And even then they still would need a real pg.

I’m telling you man ….I wouldn’t be shocked if Presti takes him over Jabari if Orlando goes Chet at 1
