DRAFT: #18 [Green] & #31 [Terry] & trade for #36 [Tyler Bey]

it's that he could possibility be a legitimate 7' wing

I think this is absolutely what NBA teams are seeing. BUT it requires him to shoot MUCH BETTER against MUCH BETTER competition. AND it requires him to be at least a passable defender. Those are just giant risks with small percentage chances of happening.

Totally agree, which is why I can't imagine the Mavs are looking at him (as a playoff team) saying "that's what we need." If they weren't willing to put time into Giannis back when they were trying to convince themselves they were good, why would they want to invest it in this kid now that they're actually good? 

To me, this seems like a pick for a bad team who has more to gain with a risk like this than they have to lose.

I do think Luka's emergence has a positive impact on the general draft stock of both Pokusevski and Avdija, similar to the way Darko Milicic benefited from Dirk's stardom, because they're both foreign playmakers with size. I think teams might trick themselves into thinking those guys can do what Luka does (lololol). But, I don't agree with the lazy reporter thinking that Dallas wants to end up with every foreign player on the market. Dallas already has their skilled playmaker with size.

Can someone briefly cover the "draft and stash" rules? Can this be done in the first round without impacting your cap, or only in the second?
