Orla Melo ball.

The Timberwolves have the number one overall pick, but you know the man who knows all that's our buddy Jay Bilas, who joins us live.

It has been far too long.

Hello, J, and let's talk about Anthony Edwards.

He is our projected number one overall pick.

So for the fans who didn't get to see a lot of them at Georgia, what is he in the N b A?

What does he translate to?

Well, he's a super athletic wing that can really score.

And with his length and athleticism, he can be an excellent defender.

Hey has range.

He's a three level score.

He's got range to three point on.

He could score in Bunches.

He's got a middle game, and when he puts his head down in transition or in the half court and gets to the rim, Hey can finish through people over people.

But I think the question marks about Anthony Edwards, or does he know how to play yet, uh, some issues with shot selection?

He'll settle for jumpers instead of taking it to the rim and forcing defenders to foul him.

He only shot about five free throws a game.

It should have been 10 and his defensive concentration.

Can he sustain it for longer periods?

When he gets down in the stance and gets wide, it is really hard for ball handlers.

Get around him on.

He could get out in passing lanes.

He could be really disruptive.

But the question is, is he gonna Is he going to do it for extended periods of time?

He's still a young player, but I have him as the most talented player in the draft.

Mike Schmitz, who's one of the best.

He's the best talent evaluator.

I know he's got Lemelle a ball as as the most talented player.

But Ball doesn't have the athletic profile that Edwards has.

And that's why the combination of skill, scoring ability and athleticism is why I have Edwards, number one on the board.

Yeah, Schmitz on earlier here, he said.

He said, Exactly as you're pointing out, he likes ball.

You like Edwards.

Most people seem to be pointing to Edwards.

Then I want to go to number two because we have a situation that you don't usually get.

You have a team that is thinking championship thoughts that has the number two overall pick.

So as you consider that situation, what do you think they should do?

Well, if they could trade down?

Great.

If you like somebody further back there, there's a thought process out there right now that you could get a serviceable big guy on the market for cheap.

So why would you do that in the draft?

I'm not sure I agree with that.

I think James Wiseman of Memphis is a great option for the Warriors At number two, like James Wiseman.

Five, maybe 10 years ago would have been the number one pick in this draft.

Without argument, he would have been the clear number one pick.

I think he's a 7 ft one Chris Bosch type player with a 76 wingspan who can really rebound.

Run.

He's mobile so he could get out on guard, pick and roll and he could get out and either roll or pop.

And he's a much better shooter then.

I think people give him credit for that.

That's kind of the issue is can he knocked down an MBA three and I think he I think he can.

I think he's gonna be a now outstanding player in the n b A and and would really fit in well with what the Warriors do.

And he's a really smart young man as well.

Not that he needs to, but speaks Mandarin Chinese.

He's incredibly mature.

I think he's gonna do really well in the NBA, Okay, and then I want to ask you about one more player.

And that's Tyreese Halliburton.

Who is the prospect that it's a name that I'm sure a lot of people have never heard before.

But suddenly in the last few days, I'm hearing it a lot, and I see that he's number four on your overall list to tell us about him.

He's, Ah, point guard that's got size and really good length, 7 ft wingspan and he can handle the ball really good passer.

Not only in transition, but in the half court.

Uh, shoots it very well.

Shot over 40% from three, both his years that I was state over 50% from the field, so his efficiency is fantastic.

Rebounds his position on excellent defender and a maturity level that you don't often see in a player his age, so he may like.

I heard Mike Schmidt say this the other day, and I think it's right, like he's got the highest floor, you know.

He's gonna be really good now.

Is he gonna be a superstar Hall of Fame player?

I I'm not gonna say that, but you know, he's gonna be a terrific player for a long, long time.

Halliburton is undervalued in this draft.
