OKC Thunder 2021 NBA Mock Draft – the new era reformulation begins
Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. SG. player. Alabama. Joshua Primo. 28. 93
Regardless of what happens with Ben Simmons, the 76ers need playmaking, scoring, and players not afraid to shoot (no shade – just truth).
Primo is more of a work in progress (youngest player in the draft) shot the 3-ball at 38.5 percent good mechanics. If he develops like I think he could end up being a player we’re talking about five years from now.
Scouting Report. Ayo Dosunmu. player. 66. Pick Analysis. G. Illinois. 29
Chris Paul can elect to opt out of his contract. He led the Suns to a marvelous season finishing second overall (in the regular and postseason). Cameron Payne offered steady backup but this Suns team needs more depth at the guard regardless of whether CP3 opts-in, (or opts-out or extends).
They’ll also need to shop for a backup big given Dario Saric’s torn ACL, but with Deandre Ayton still, very young the free-agent market is likely a better option for that piece.
Scouting Report. G. West Virginia. 30. player. Pick Analysis. Miles McBride. 118
With Mike Conley a free agent there’s no need to panic but the team who held the top ladder rung for most of the season also can’t afford to get docile. The better play would be a sharp shooting wing but McBride will offer them depth at the guard.
