Sorry I'm late to this draft prospect party but are their any guys injured or have some other reason to drop for some reason. Connelly has scooped up injured guys that fell a few times with good results.

Nets have four firsts after Porzingis deal. Might we want to trade 17 and 31 for two of them? Would like to end up with both Coward and Fleming.

Clark and who else? He's the only Wolf I can think of, unless you are including the Nuggets pick, in which he picked Porter.

Actually I think they now have 5 picks. Wasn't it reported there were some teams that really wanted to get back into the draft? Nets might be looking to get future picks from those teams...I'd guess there will be plenty of wheeling and dealing in this draft.

I don't think TSJ was injured. He played in the NCAA elimination game.

Doogie reported that the Wolves have all options on the table: stay at 17, move up, or move down.

It will all depend on TC's board and how much he values various players. We know he has no problem maneuvering for additional draft assets, and also is willing to spend draft assets for the right guy. TC works the phones so he has potential deals lined up depending on how the draft unfolds.

My gut tells me he stays pat and drafts at both 17 and 31. Then we'll see what happens with the player and team options. Then free agency and/or trades and/or sign-and-trades will be used to fill-out/balance the roster.

This should be a fun couple of weeks! (unless you've already bet on a certain outcome, which means you'll likely be disappointed!)

He wasn't injured he dropped in the draft for other reasons.
