Man y’all have got to remember how these trades work. The Grizzlies only drafted Walker Kessler on technicality and had no decision in the section of him. The Grizzlies had already agreed to trade the 22nd pick used on Kessler (and also the 29th pick)for the 19th pick used on LaRavia. The trades aren’t finalized by the league until later, so the teams just draft whoever they are told to at that number by the other team until it is finalized. Only by technicality the Wolves “drafted” LaRavia at 19, while the Grizzlies “drafted” Kessler at 22 because that’s who the Wolves wanted with the 22nd pick that was theirs as soon as the pick trade finalized.

Yup, anyone who watches lots of Hawks games already see how incredible this 19 year old is as a defender. It is very rare to find such a young talent that can already defend well above league average. His ball IQ is absurdly high (firm believer this can't really be taught or developed at this stage in the players career, either have it or they don't) and the only thing really missing is efficient scoring. Even then I don't think us hawks fans are worried. He takes really great shots most of the time and it is only a matter of repetition and comfort before he becomes an offensive beast.

Yeah, he has the potential to not be super impactful, but a big criticism I always had with the Hornets before Jordan reduced his ownership role was not taking bigger swings on picks and always going for the overly safe option with middle of the lottery selections while still getting burned on it anyway. This new regime saw a guy that could turn out to be a solid swing in the top 10 of a bad draft and figured it was worth the gamble. Still a lot of projecting with him like you mentioned, but I'm happy they at least took a chance on a guy that could have some upside in a weak draft.

It's not unheard of for older players to take developmental leaps at later ages especially if they come into the league as older prospects, but the odds aren't great. Is it silly he went 17 on draft night? Probably, but it's far too soon to put him over some of the younger, rawer guys who went above him.

Of the top 20 draftees 15 are only 19 or 20 years old, and 5 are 22-23. A 19-20 years old prospect can evolve in many directions, and it is too early to evaluate them after 2 months, moreover overseas players have to adapt to a new country. Knecht looks good but is is probably much closer to his ceiling than the youngsters. Most teams bid on the future when drafting very young kids.

I don’t understand your logic behind McCain number 1 in the redraft. You clearly laid out the reason Atlanta chose Zacc but then went against that by having them take Jared number one. McCain doesn’t fit what Atlanta is trying to do defensively. Yes, he’s out producing Zacc statistically so far, but it’s team identity you probably should be looking at?! Also, side note…. So many 🏀 KZbinrs are going crazy on picks 16/17… I’ve been watching basketball a long time… I can remember a lot of people back in ‘09 saying “Brandon Jennings is the greatest thing since sliced bread…” hahaha let’s let not get ahead of ourselves. All of this to say - Atlanta wouldn’t choose McCain #1 in a redraft lol

I don’t think he’s accounting for the team selecting, just ranking them off their performance. Definitely overrating Knecht tho, idk how a 23 year old rookie who can’t defend is supposed to be top 3

wearing a Magic shirt, I was just waiting for the report on Da Silva.

Haha I like him. Maybe in the future I will do every 1st round pick. Got that shirt at game 3 ORL-CLE last year

Love the grades, I do think people always overvalue Knecht. Dude practically, has a worse statline than castle barring, the efficiency. You have to understand that this is Stephon Castle's floor and Dalton Knecht's ceiling, he will not be better than this other than a good Duncan Robinson season. Stephon Castle is a legit star #2 of either a Jimmy Butler or Jrue Holiday. Potentially better than both of those. If I was betting Risacher and McCain are the only ones that may or may not be better in the long run.

Knecht is just getting this level of love because he’s on the Lakers. People always fall for the old person in the draft balling out trick. Remember Duarte from a few seasons ago? People never learn

Missi and Dunn? They have been really good enough to be on your top 10. I completely agree with your top 5.

Embarrassing to leave out the rookie who’s leading the class in double-doubles…

Do the regrade after the season is over. The season is far from being over
