Just noticed that NBC’s mock also has the Wolves taking Scheierman at 27. The also have the Wolves taking Nunez at 37. Yuck!!
Lip, I also would like to see us take Scheierman with our first pick, and I have some concerns that his stock is rising quickly and that he might not be there at 27. I also don't think we want to roster two late draft picks this year, so I would endorse your idea of moving up a few spots by giving up 37.

I'm also not too excited about Nunez if we keep our second round pick, but I can see why TC might be targeting him. He's young, and could develop into a competent (and big) PG. But there is some question about whether he even wants to play in the NBA. He might be the perfect Eurostash for us this season. Let him develop in Europe for a year or two while he develops his game further, and then convince him to come over.
While Eurostash is certainly an option, I fully expect any 2nd round pick to sign a two-way contract with the Wolves.
I'm biased but I really enjoy watching Scheierman play. They aren't the same player and have a bit different strengths but I kinda get a Mike Miller vibe when watching him. I would be happy with selecting him and I think he would help the team. Thinking about it more I've probably watched him play more than anyone in this draft.

Joe Ingles is the comparison I've seen made.

That's a good one too and Ingles is not unlikely Mike Miller either. A young Joe Ingles would be a pretty nice player.

Wow! I thought he might be back assuming we don’t draft a big. We may be looking for a vet minimum guy in free agency to fill that spot.

“Garza” has a lot of letters that “Zaragoza” has. You are pulling my leg, aren’t you? Drinking early?
