Lendenborg has been the most difficult one for me this year. His age has to be a factor, but how much? I'm not a "timeline guy". Year 2 Flagg could have a similar jump as Year 2 Luka, and now your timeline is different than it was on draft night. Just pick the best player available. The thing that gives me pause with Lendenborg isn't that I don't think he's good, but rather did he look great because he was a grown man playing against teenagers and hit his peak in college, or does he have more growth and All-Star potential in the league?
