Hope the Cavs flame out, Donovan realizes he’ll never win there as a one-man show and asks for a trade (ideally, to pair with Wemby), then Spurs trade #4, #8, Keldon and filler for him.
Yeah, I know both, Pelicans and Wolves, are high on Jones and Reid respectively, but getting a top 10 pick for a role player is always worth considering. If you get offered, both, #4 and #8 , for said role player, the chance is almost too good to pass up. I think the Spurs could get those players if they really wanted to.
Trade 4 and 8 for Cade Cunningham or LaMello Ball?
Would do for Cade, but no way the Pistons do it. I might even add another unprotected first, tbh.
Or 2 or 3
I think Atlanta’s FO will try to sell to Trae that Sarr is the next Wemby. He’ll go #1.
Feels like Wizards would/ should go for Topic. Someone who complements Bilal well. Maybe they want to have a French connection with him and Risacher.
Rockets need a shooter so they’ll probably look at Rob, Reed, and Risacher.
Spurs with their 4th need an immediate contributor. I actually don’t mind Risacher at this spot. Rob and Reed would be good choices here. Castle too.
Yeah, I think we have
Sarr - Atlanta
Topic/Clingan - Washington
Sheppard - Houston
As for Risacher, I need someone to explain to me why they think he's going to be better than Julian Champagnie. Even his best outcome isn't vastly better than what we already have.
With our first pick, I just hope for one of Topic, Risacher, Sarr falling to us (probably in that order and with Sarr beeing pretty surely gone).
If these are gone, let's roll with Buzelis.
As for #8, I hope one of Sheppard, Knecht and Holland is still on the board (also in that order).
I'm a sucker dor internationals and white players...but I trust our FO and if they believe in Dillingham, that could be a nice thing.
Would Cleveland do 4, 8, Keldon/Zollins, and Branham for Garland?

4 San Antonio Spurs
Rob Dillingham
Dillingham’s shiftiness in the backcourt would provide a stark contrast alongside Victor Wembanyama, giving the Spurs a potentially fascinating two-man combination that defenses can’t switch against. But after also landing the eighth pick courtesy of the Raptors, perhaps the Spurs could attempt to move up for their dream target or swing a trade for a proven player.
8 San Antonio Spurs
Cody Williams
Williams didn’t pop the way many hoped as a freshman at Colorado, but he still provides a rare blend of size, fluidity, and scoring upside. He could fit perfectly next to Wembanyama and Dillingham, giving the Spurs a tremendous young trio. And you can’t forget Jeremy Sochan or Devin Vassell, either. San Antonio would have a potentially deadly five-man lineup.
For the record, I don’t think he’ll be that much better. Just for me, it’ll be an easier pill to swallow to pick him with the 4th than 1st or 2nd like some crazies on here.
Rockets GM was in France to scout Risacher. I hope they take him tbh
two first round guys
At 5th, I think Detroit tries to inject winners or consummate professionals into their roster. I think options for them are Clingan, Castle, Sheppard, Risacher.
I think Ron Holland, Jakobe Walter, Dalton Knecht are guys the Hornets will be interested in.
Blazers will try to go for anything but guard probably. Anybody with length. Maybe Cody Williams, Buzelis since they don’t mind gleague players, Salaun.
would be a very spur and pop thing to do go for serbian who is a nonathlete and cant shoot.
I want Dilly, Bezelis, and Salaun. Make it happen BW
Pretty cool result today.
I’m all in on Buzelis at #4 tbh. I think you then roll the dice that one of the Kentucky kids are available at #8.

My early mock draft:
1 - Hawks - Sarr
2 - Wizards - Topic
3 - Rockets - Risacher
4 - Spurs - Dillingham
5 - Detroit - Castle
6 - Hornets - Holland

8 - Spurs - Sheppard
