Curious to see what everyone's opinion is of his guy. I think if Mil gets the 3rd pick, he could possibly be obtainable for a package of Pek and our 1st plus maybe Bazz.

Parker's gonna be a superstar. No way Milwaukee trades him away.

I agree parker is a star in the making

They have the Greek who's name I won't try, he can play SG/SF. If a guy like the Australian kid at PG really shoots up the draft board, or Ennis does, they might be more inclined to go with a PG. It's all conjecture at this point, but if they think Shabazz is a player in this league, and they need post scoring, it's possible they could see a core of Pek, Ennis, Atek-whatever as better than him and Parker.

What does Mil do with Larry Sanders? An $11M bench guy is probably not going to go over well for a small market team like Mil. I know, certainly there are trade opportunities, but no one is going to touch his contract after his injuries and off-court issues he has had this year.

Thanasis Antetokounmpo The Geek Freeks brother plays for Delaware (D-League) hes supposed to be a 2nd round pick.. Intriguing I say waste a pick on him and keep him in the d-league for a season

Mehh. Would be 22-years old at the start of next season. I wouldn't hate wasting one of our (three?) second rounders on him, but he's not a must get, in my opinion. I'd rather get Scott Wilbekin, Casey Prather, Russ Smith and/or Juvonte Reddic.

Parker is going to be another good to great scoring option with limited defense type of player. He just packs on too big a frame to be a defensive game changer especially at the 3. He has the IQ, but I don't think he has the athleticism to be more than an average defender. The NBA diet and conditioning will help, but I don't see the same burst or length that the top players have that make them top level defenders as well. I think he is still a top 3 pick, but I see his franchise impact more like a Paul Pierce than the 2 way guys we see today like the George's. I think if any of the 3 top picks are looking for a go-to scorer, he should seriously be considered even over Embiid and Wiggins.

He could end up being a Rudy Gay type player, even though in college Gay was a fairly efficient shot blocker, I believe he had around 2 a game for both years he was at UCONN. (Just looked, 1.6 and 1.9) And at the right price, for this team, if he was efficient at doing it, that would be astronomical. We need a go to cut throat type of guy to place next to Love, who in his own sense, is already that guy. Gay has fallen of as of late, but he had a very promising first couple of years.
