I haven't settled on one yet. Although, just like Vecenie, they have Mara at 9. I had not considered him that high. A few quick thoughts. I think they are way high on Swain and way low on Peat.

I think analysts are seeing Mara as an immediate impact player in the middle. Because of that, I don't think he fits at the bottom of the first round either. These types of guys never seem to hold up very long, but I get why you might draft him in the top 10.
I think they are high on Swain and low on Evans. I can't say much for Peat. I don't see any reason to have him as a high draft pick, but Arizona didn't really feature any one player much so I'm not sure how he manages in the NBA. It's not like he has any elite skill.
We'll know more in 10 days.
