From the little I’ve seen, a guy I like who is mocked in the 2nd round is Jonathan Mogbo. People get hung up on his height but you play with your hands, not your head, and his standing reach is 9’0.5”, 3.5” higher than AG who has been playing center in the playoffs (and 3” taller than Nnaji). Mogbo has little high level basketball experience and is a late bloomer. His background reminds me a little of Chris Andersen from back in the day. Mogbo was a late grower who had no scholarship offers coming out of HS, then played at 2 different junior colleges before transferring a couple of more times. He just moves extremely well and handles and passes very well for a big. The fact that in college he made unusual, quick passes suggests he reads the court well and is a smart, instinctual athlete. He’s not had much real coaching and given his very good hands and natural coordination and athleticism I don’t think it’s too late for him to learn to shoot. The Nuggets need to add some athleticism to the pipeline and I’m impressed with Mogbo’s combination of basketball size (7’2” wingspan and 9’0.5” standing reach) and how quick and coordinated his movements appear to be on video. Good find. He looks like he's got some decent strength too.

read earlier that if the Rockets draft Clingan they're going to trade Sengun for KD. you don't deserve to be successful if you do something obscenely stupid like that. I listened to Bill and Russillo talk about that earlier today. Thought it was retarted to give up on Sengun! Clearly HOU isn't that dumb.

MIN trading an unprotected 2031 1st rounder and a 2030 pick swap to get Rob Dillingham!

Edey going #9 is mind-boggling to me! I like him, but his archetype hasn't been able to stay on the floor in years!

go for Ware if you want to reach. Edey is a bad fit with a Ja-run team

Nugget legend Anthony Carter in the house.
I hope your father didn't teach you how to make an inbound pass.

Was a long shot but I was hoping that Ware would drop to us.

"Nuggets send No. 28, No. 56 and two future second round picks to the Suns, sources said. Phoenix moves back several slots and picks up assets."

We sent 3 2nd round picks to move up 6 slots in a bad draft?
Edit: if he turns into a rotational player this year, it’ll be worth it

At least we're only bringing in one rookie pick instead of two.
Now if only we can find a way to jettison Zeke, Pickett, Tyson, and Reggie.

All of my faith in Calvin has been restored. Holmes is the exact type of player the Nuggets need behind Jokic. Watson/Holmes combo is going to have us jumping out of our seats.
