The top two prospects in this draft have been undoubtedly Markelle Fultz (Washington) and Lonzo Ball (UCLA). They are absolutely amazing elite talent within a pretty tough power conference, and I don't think Danny would pass up either one just because of a roster logjam.
Anyway, the point of this post is to ask the question of what type of talent you are willing to risk taking with a top pick. Would you rather a traditional elite talent (Fultz) with lower risk/lower reward or a unicorn type talent (Ball) with higher risk/higher reward? I'll explain....
Fultz is your all-around guard talent. He is above average to elite in almost every category. Shooting, scoring, ball-handling, playmaking, defensive instincts, point-guard instincts, and decent athleticism. You almost know for sure that he will be a starting PG in the league. However, we have seen players play like him, even if they're not an elite talent like he is. In other words, i think he is a sure-fire starter (maybe allstar) but he doesn't cause a nightly mismatch for all other 29 teams.
Ball is a completely different animal. Everything about him screams unorthodox and unpredictable. He shoots weird, but makes his shots with huge range. He's 6'6 but has the shiftiness and ballhandling of an And1 player. He's a skinny rail but has SF length on defense. Oh and he's the best dunker on his UCLA team. And I dont think i have to talk about his passing and basketball IQ. I have no idea if his unorthodox play will translate to the NBA, but if it does, this kid would be a complete mismatch for all 29 teams. You cant guard him with a smaller guard because he'll just pass and shoot over them, but he's athletic enough to blow by any bigman (or jump over them). I know he's been compared to Jason Kidd but this kid is more athletic IMO.
All this talk about unicorns, and he is the only one in this draft class that would fit this category. But man, talk about risky. I think at no.1 pick, I'll take the unicorn. But I'll probably change my mind a hundred more times between now and the draft.
