I would think it's Bagley, but there is some pause. He's not really a shooter (which is highly valued in the NBA today) and he's also a fairly average physical specimen (not very long).

JJJ is the much safer pick. Carter might even be a safer pick.Bagley is such a tough player to evaluate. Bagley is 6'11" and extremely athletic. He's so fast and so quick. His second jump is great. But I find it difficult to understand why he had so few bocks, 0.9 per game. He shot 39.7% from three on 1.8 threes per game, but his form doesn't look great and he only shot 62.7% from the free throw line. He also scored 21 points per game on a team with a lot of offensive options on an overall shooting percentage of 61.4% and grabbed 11.1 rebounds (4 per game on offense) while sharing the floor with Carter.Whoever is drafting third (assuming Ayton and Doncic go 1&2) is going to have to do a lot of homework on him.would be real interesting if we win the 3rd pick, and if danny finds a trade partner to go trade down and get Carter and a future pickThat would be fun. We could be in the lotto yet again . We just keep hoarding lotto picks until we get the next lebronI really like Carter. He's not as exciting as other guys, but I think he will be a solid NBA player and would fit the Celtics very well. It would be great for him to practice with Horford every day and learn from him since they look like similar type of players.If Ainge pulled that off with another future pick, I'd be thrilled.Agree 100%Even carters stable demeanor resembles horfords on court attitude. A lot of similarities in playstyle for sure. Almost seems like a no brainer to get carter. He has great defensive instincts

If we're gonna roll the dice with another Dukie and hope we get lucky like we did with Tatum I'd rather draft Trent Jr. He's a much better version of Tyreke Evans to me. It'd make losing Rozier easier. But since we're not gonna draft him that high I say go with Mo Bamba. Get the next Dikembe.
Bagley is definitely a 5 in today's NBA.
