I love Rudy, but this team doesn't need another Rudy for the future

Then go with Fleming, he's more like Adebayo in that he can protect rim and shoot 3s.

Mark Williams and Maluach? That's a choice.

Charlotte is trading Mark Williams to Suns for pick 29 and future pick. Wow!

Maybe Suns flip Maluach for Jase Richardson

Yikes, Charlotte might want a big at 29 ahead of pick 31. We might need to trade with Nets to get one of their three picks from 22-27 to leap ahead if we want a big there.

I'm not disagree with you one way or another cause I don't know these guys at all but again, your position runs against the general consensus

There are 6 picks before the Wolves are on the clock. I expect Maluach to be one of them. I have six players I really like if they’re available at that point in the following order of preference:

1. Cedrick Coward - Too talented, physically gifted & productive to pass on. Also, can play PG.
2. Thomas Sorber - Super strong, great wingspan, very productive, sky high basketball IQ. Position of need.
3. Beringer - Excellent length and talent. Huge upside. Position of need.
4. Fleming - A big with 7’5.25 wingspan and 39% 3-pt shot. Good defender. Can play center, position of need.
5. Raynaud - Best rebounder in the draft. I think he’s a gifted passer who will be special offensively.
6. Nique Clifford - A guard who averages over 9 rebounds and hits nearly 38% of his threes. Have to like this guy.

Blazers take Cedric Coward. My draft day dream is over!
