Okay, Scoot and Ayton likely out for at least a couple games? What's the lowest we can get in the lottery now if we went full tank?

Egor Demin at 8 and we don't have Atlanta's 2nd as the standings sit right now (it goes to OKC 41-60)Can one of you ESPN+ subscribers let us know what it says about our picks?

I think the best we can do now is 8th, Chicago went full tank at the deadline. George and Embid both healthy now so should be able to pass them, but that's it.Okay, Scoot and Ayton likely out for at least a couple games? What's the lowest we can get in the lottery now if we went full tank?

I don't know that Toronto and Brooklyn are fully dedicated to the tank or can tank as well as we've learned to. Also Chicago have shown multiple times that their dedication to the tank waxes and wanes in the late season.I think the best we can do now is 8th, Chicago went full tank at the deadline.

I really wouldn't worry about that.And what if we are outside the top 14?![]()

I figure we're going to be 6 or 7. Of course, that doesn't mean anything but how many chances you have at No. 1.
Dame was 6th pick i believeI'll take 6 and live with the results.
So was dinner bell Mel Turpin. You can find great players throughout the draft. All you want is the opportunity to pick Oden and Bowie over Durant and JordanDame was 6th pick i believe
This sounds too good to be true, and in fact he had never dunked before he got to college! - but what the coaching staff did was make him burn off the puppy fat in the Summer. Shades of Marc Gasol/Jokic? Or, because he's only 6'8", maybe Jared Dudley?Hey! I was just about to post that story. Kid didn't even start on his HS team, barely found a college, then he got in shape....Who knows if he will even be drafted but 30 NBA scouts have gone to see him.

No issues@Mediocre Man we all now how you feel about WhiteAmericanBornCenters…..but how about WABFs?
It's a different time. Dude can be big man on campus and get paid to do so.I've seen a lot of number 1 ranked prospects who are having a good season say this... and then declare for the draft anyway. Twon't happen. Dude will be in The Association next season, let's hope that we get lotto lucky and you're putting together highlight packages for him on the nightly.
The highest paid NCAA athlete was Shedeur Sanders this last year and he was making 5.1M, the highest paid basketball player was making under 2M. So 13M next season for the first pick in the NBA plus what he would get from sponsors just isn't going to be touched by NIL money. Plus he's delaying his big payday of that first extension. I haven't seen NIL stop the one and done system for the top prospects and I don't expect it to... at least not in it's current iteration.It's a different time. Dude can be big man on campus and get paid to do so.
I think he still goes to the NBA but I wouldn't be shocked if he stayed if the $$$ is right.
Maybe I will watch it then, not for the disappointing Ducks though.Bailey and Harper playing the Ducks in Eugene tonight
So far Dylan Grant has looked better than either of his higher profile teammates.Bailey and Harper playing the Ducks in Eugene tonight
