With all the Sanders talk, I was wondering who everybody thinks SHOULD be drafted in the Top 5 this year.

Let's assume for now that the league records signify draft order (which they never do).

1.) Philly
2.) LA Lakers
3.) Phoenix
4.) Boston (from Brooklyn)
5.) Minnesota

NBAdraft.net currently has it going ...

1.) Ben Simmons
2.) Brandon Ingram
3.) Buddy Hield
4.) Kris Dunn
5.) Domantas Sabonis

DX currently has it going ...

1.) Brandon Ingram
2.) Ben Simmons
3.) Dragan Bender
4.) Jaylen Brown
5.) Kris Dunn

What do you think?

Should Simmons or Ingram go #1?

Is Hield more than just a GREAT college player?

Are we overrating Kris Dunn any?

Is there anybody else other than the 7 players listed above that you think could sneak into the Top 5?

I would have
1. Simmons - can add 20 lbs and be a force in 2 yrs
2. Hield - great decisions, great enthusiasm
3. Ingram. - too skinny, but good constant effort.
4. Sabonis- takes good shots, needs muscle
5. Big drop off here. Not sure

I cannot see Sabonis that early but the other 4 are reasonable choices.

I would put Brice Johnson in there personally.

Remember that we don't see the overseas players.
