In my eyes, I would be hoping for Brian Thomas, AD Mitchell, Quinyon Mitchell, Taliese Fuaga, or Jer’Zhan “Johnny” Newton, depending on who looks to be available in the 2nd round. All of these players look to be stars at the next level, and from my preliminary scouting, I would be thrilled with any of them.
