I don't think most expected Cenac to be there at 27. Only 19 but a lot of talent to work with https://youtu.be/GN0BnouJvjI?si=DFJZmAWklYJDkAxN

Baba miller or Reed, Oweh or Tyler Nickel at 40. Nickel can create his own shot. Move Hauser and Scheierman or Walsh for quicker more athletic players

Scheierman had elite defensive numbers last season, can create, can shoot the three - i’m not sure why you would to move on from that - especially when he’s only just entering his third year in the league.

Hauser makes sense to move on from, primarily because of Shceierman’s presence.

I’ve been low on Walsh for about two years.

Still, i’m not sure a second-round pick is going to earn any viable minutes under Mazzulla next season unless they absolutely plug holes in the roster.

I do keep hearing a lot about Baba Miller, though. I need to dive into him!

Redundancy with Scheierman, Hugo, Walsh, Hauser even Harper. Hauser likely gone, Hugo the highest upside. Walsh Schierman, Pritchard, now it seems White, the pieces to upgrade positions and athletically to compete . If in the ask for a Trey Murphy , Payton Watson, Dosunmu, Coby White, now rumors of Gobert and Naz Reid, do you say no? Hugo and Harper likely the top 2 keepers. Baba Miller guard ball handling skills, as he grew like 5-6 inches in 2 years I believe. Reminds me of a former high school and local school court competitor that did the same. Funny, another Miller, played with the Pacers a bit, not saying Baba has that in his future, doesn't shoot like Cheryl or Reg, needs work there, but a ton of upside. I thought Jordan played well this year, but the odd man out and contract up I believe

Great conversation, thank you Adam and Nathan. Ejiofor is showing up for the C's in a mock or two now, but with all the recent praise I do worry he willing to sooner.

Thanks for reading, Michael!

Nathan really sold me on him! I’m with you…I do wonder whether he will still be on the board at 27 (anything can happen), but if he is, could be a smart pickup by the Cs.
