2026 NBA draft thread

[dirkfansince1998]

I don’t think I could get on board but moving up to mid first round for Quintance would be an interesting roll of the dice.  I knew he was young but I forgot he didn’t turn 19 until July.  He has been in college for two years.  He is the same age as Boozer and a year younger than Caleb Wilson.  He played his whole freshman year as a 17 year old .

There is risk for such a raw player who missed almost all of this year.  In a weak center draft, it will be interesting to see where he falls

Raw is putting it mildly. About as bad of a FT shooter as you can find. Basically dunk or miss as far as his touch around the rim goes. That's just stuff that makes you borderline unplayable in the modern NBA. Would rather take a slightly worse athlet that isn't struggling with fundamentals if rim protection and rebounding are priorities for the Mavs.
Not to even mention that I am not the biggest fan of a non shooting big next to Flagg.
