    The notable name here is Zach Collins. Much like Dennis Smith Jr, he will not be available at 28. If we traded down and ended up with 5/10 (which I doubt) and ended up with Dennis Smith Jr and Zach Collins that'd be a fantastic draft.

    Is this pick included for George now? Assuming we try to get a year advancement.

    For the record: these are a bunch of nobodies and Zach Collins.

    The key to all of them: they shoot. Every single player in this group shot over 40% from deep last season except Luke Petrasek who shot 36% as a PF.

    We're keeping it if it doesn't go out in a PG trade. We brought in 99 guys for workouts.

    Im thinking if we want 5 and 10 well have to throw in 28 but perhaps then they have to give us a second.

    If we don't trade the pick in a combination for George or in combination with Clarkson, we'll take someone.

    I'm growing less and less interested in the names that low, but we'll see how things shake out.

    Nance Jr. was projected in the high 50's and had been scouted for years, Kennard was a "secret workout" that we had earlier.

    Could be someone that might not even be on the lists!

    It definitely could be. I'm sort of hoping for a half-way out of left field pick like Frank Jackson or Kobi Simmons.

    Could it be the Lakers anticipated getting another late 1st rd pick? Explains why they are working out so many.

    I love getting another first, its a good asset. Id like to take players with both and see if you can dangle backups to possibly trade up.

    Regardless taking gamble on super cheap contracts at worst we get good depth... Or hopefully we strike gold and one of them becomes a great player thats even better than Russell.

    We need less rooks and more seasoned players with upside that can shoot...hmmm like D'Angelo Russell for example.
