The Bulls are gonna select Denny Abdi, a 6 ft 10 combo forward out of Israel, played for Maccabi Tel Aviv. Serbian Israeli in has great size, great positional length. And this is a guy who can shift really anywhere from 1 to 4 on both ends of the floor. He's tremendous in transition, and he's going to give them a guy who can step in as a starter right away. Already has 100 pro games of experience, and you have to think that Luca don check and his success is gonna positively impact. How Denny Abdullah is viewed because he can play at both ends of the floor. He's probably a better defender, I think, than Luca Donkeys. He's not the offensive player. Very few players in the world are, but this is a good, solid pick for Chicago. Oh, I agree with both of y'all. Look, this kid is 6 10. He could play both ends of the floor. Very skilled. You cannot pass up on a kid like this. And I think this guy is a perfect fit for the Chicago Bulls, so I'm 100% in with that pick that y'all just picked with the Chicago Bulls. Okay, in the number fifth pick, the Cavs are on the board. The Cleveland Cavaliers will select Obi Topping, the best player in all of college basketball, and he's plug and play. He's gonna fit alongside Darius Garland, Collin Sexton, Kevin Porter. He's a lob threat. He runs the floor incredibly hard. You can pop him 23 is maybe the most complete offensive player in this draft. So I think this is a perfect pick for the Cleveland Cavaliers. Yeah, top and Mike can step away and shoot the ball with ease from three point range is a spot up shooter. Hey tends to leak out a little bit early when he's running the floor to try to get down court for an offensive play. So he needs to stay in a rebound little bit longer and then take off once they get the ball. The only question mark with Obi Topping is his lateral quickness when he's getting out to guard pick and roll. But But I think he's gonna be a terrific MBA player and and really do well early on because of his maturity. I agree. And if Cleveland knew better, there do better than draft topping. Look, you don't know what's gonna happen. We don't know what's gonna happen with Tristian Thompson, and we don't know what's gonna happen with Andre Drummond. So drafting him, along with the young core that they already have, is a match made in heaven. In my opinion, the first five picture in our mock draft Melo ball goes number one. Anthony Edwards. The odds on favorite goes three Wiseman in a number to Danny at via Out of Israel. Number four. Adobe Topping, the Wooden Award winner. Best college player last year at a Dayton goes five. Let's go six through 10. Mike Schmitz. Where we at? Well, number six. The Atlanta Hawks are gonna select Isaac Koro out of Auburn. This kid is a big time athletes 6 ft 6 £220.6 10 wingspan. It really gives the Hawks exactly what they need. Defensively. Gives them a defensive identity, someone who can guard one through four and handle the ball and really, really pass it. And then, at number seven, Patrick Williams out of Florida State, this is the biggest riser in this draft. He has an MBA ready body. 68 £225.7 foot wingspan. Reminds you a little bit of maybe an O. G. And a No B type has a ton of upside. And then, at number eight, the New York Knicks gonna get their point guard of the future. Entire. Ease Halliburton. He does everything on the floor. Analytics models have had him as a number one or number two pick all season long. He could really shoot it. He has great size, and he's a perfect fit next to R. J. Barrett. And then at number nine, the Washington Wizards get their rim protector of the future. And that's on Yuca con you. The best shot blocker in the entire draft doesn't need the ball offensively to be effective. And defensively reminds you a little bit of bam out of by you. With his ability to sit down, slide, defend, pick and roll and protect the rim. And then, at number 10, the Phoenix Suns get Devin vessel. Reminds me a little bit of one of their wings already. Miquel Bridges. This is a kid who can guard multiple positions. You can shoot it from three shot over 40% from three this past season at Florida State. He's a late bloomer, has a ton of upside to grow into. So the Phoenix Suns get another switch. Hable wing there, and this is a strong group. These are guys who could potentially end up being better than some of those prospects drafted ahead of them. Teams really like the back end of the top 10 in this draft a year ago, people have been shocked to see a Coral Williams and vessel in the top 10 Halliburton and Congo. Maybe more expected to be on this stage. Jay, What jumps out at you? Six through 10? Well, Tyree's Halliburton out of Iowa State. And if the Knicks were to get him a number eight, I think they'd be lucky because I have. Halliburton is a top five prospect in this draft. He has zero holes in his game. You know, Mike said that he can really shoot it, especially when he gets his feet set in catch and shoot situations, but he can really handle it. Excellent vision is a passer second in the Big 12 and assists last year, but he doesn't make mistakes. And with over 7 ft wingspan, he's an excellent defender that can switch off and guard multiple positions. He could go. I mean, he can play at a high level at both ends of the floor. And I think he's an undervalued prospect in this year's draft. Well, yes. Look, I'm looking at that number nine pick by the Washington Wizards, and they need a wing. And R. J. Hampton is the guy. Listen, this kid has got a lot better. He's very versatile. I think he's the most athletic player in this game in the draft. I mean, and when you look at him, he's improved this jumper side working with Mike Miller over this offseason, Uh, during this pandemic, and he's also he's also put on 15 £20 of muscle. So if I'm the Washington Wizards, I'm looking. I'm taking a close. I'd RJ Hampton, by the way he worked out with him this week, and they were very impressed.
