2021 NBA Draft Results
1. Trailblazers - C Patrick Ewing (79 ovr)
Franchise changing player that gives them the front court star they have been missing.
2. Grizzles - SF Chris Mullin - (79 ovr)
Elite shooter that will benefit from Ja's driving
3. Thunder - PF Karl Malone(79 ovr)
Elite low post scorer that is a major upgrade from what they had
4. Bulls - SG Joe Dumars (77 ovr)
This will ramp up the Levine trade rumors
5. Thunder - SF Detlef Schrempf (77 ovr)
Knockdown shooter that will make teams pay when they double Karl Malone.
6. Knicks - J.R O'neal (77 ovr) (trade up)
They trade up 2 spots and get the best PG in the class. This should finally put a end to their PG woes
7. Cavs - SF Xavier Mcdaniel (78 ovr)
They were kind of stuck without a perfect fit and trade partner. They go for the safe choice to compete with last years top 10 pick.
8. Pistons - PF Charles Oakley (78 ovr) (trade down)
In the trade down they get the 4th pick in 2nd round a future 2nd and dump the contract of Plumlee. He will be the starting C and will pair with their young stretch 4's once they get rid of Blake.
9. Warriors - PF Sebastiao Viana
They go BPA a stretch 4 and all of a sudden their front court for the future is set.
10. Hornets - PF Hot Rod Williams (77 ovr)
Frontcourt was a major need and they take the best guy on the board.
11. Pacers - Wyman Tisdale (75 ovr)
He gives them a true 4 something they didn't have last year
12. Magic - PG Terry Porter (74 ovr)
He will likely move to the 2 and make for a nice trio of young G's with Fultz and Anthony. This probably means Fournier is gone in FA.
13. Warriors - Tim Vincent (75 ovr)
Tough call between him and the defense G Yi. Tim is a fantastic athlete that will get brought along slowly and provide depth behind Klay.
14. Kings - C Manute Bol (74 ovr)
The 7'7 shot blocker makes them a fun team and means Bagley slides to the 4.
15. 76ers - SG Shane Kerr (70 ovr)
Don't let the overall fool you he already has B+ in 3 point shooting and perimeter defense. They have a scary defense team with Ben, thybulle and Joel. They think he will be the next Covington.
16. Jazz SF Arvydas Simunic (74 ovr)
The versatile F can learn under Bojan and Ingles
17. Wizards SG Martin Peterson (73 ovr)
Excellent pick the shooter can replace George Hill if he isn't brought back or start at PG if they trade Westbrook
18. Hawks - Mauchung Yi (73 ovr)
The defense specialist won't be getting any minutes this year with all the depth they have. You can never have enough defense wings around Trae.
19. Spurs - PF Ronald Elliot (76 ovr)
They didn't have a true 4 last year so he fills a need
20. Grizzles - PG Gheorge Stefan (75 ovr) (trade up)
A surprise pick that we will have more on later. Memphis trades up and takes the speedy PG that graded out better then expected in defense and shooting. A lot of teams were scared to take him higher since he is just 5'9.
21. Suns - PG Dion Justice (72 ovr)
The dynamite offense player hopefully will get a year to learn under Chris Paul.
22. Pelicans - SF Allen Washington (75 ovr)
Without any holes they go BPA
23. Knicks - SF Luis West (73 ovr)
He has a lot of potential and should get minutes.
24. Nuggets - C Jon Koncak (74 ovr)
Jokic didnt have a true backup last year and this team always needs def and rebounding
25. Celtics - PG Clayton Daniels (73 ovr)
They go BPA and it will be hard for him to get minutes unless Kemba is moved. Even if he never develops he will provide offense off the bench
26. Rockets - SF Drew Cheeks (73 ovr)
A little raw but is a 3& D player and it was a position of need
27. Nets - PF A.C Green (74 ovr)
This is our favorite fit in the draft a true PF that will be a glue guy and does all the small things.
28. Clippers - PG Sam Vincent (72 ovr)
Another excellent pick the playmaker PG is going to the perfect team and could start
29. Lakers- C Jimmy Williamson (72 ovr)
He can replace what you had in Gasol can defend, rebounding and shoot and might even be the starter
30. Bucks - PF Gilbert Richmond (73 ovr)
With a pretty weak bench they couldn't go wrong and grab someone that get some bench minutes right away
2nd round Big Names
Thunder - 1st pick - SG Mario Ellie (71 ovr)
Pelicans - 6th pick - C Bill Wennington (72 ovr)
Jazz - PG Spud Webb (70 ovr)
