Consensus is most likely Towns, Okafor, Russell and Mudiay with the 5th being anyone between Porzinguis, Mario, WCS or Winslow. None of those guys is a reach for top 5 IMO

As opposed to a big board that I originally posted and who I think actually goes top 5... I misread what Keko was asking I think.
Towns
Okafor
Russell
Mudiay
Porzingis
Towns
Okafor
Russell
Mudiay
Porzingis

I'm a Knicks fan, so I know my heart will be broken.
I just hope that the 76ers **** up and let Russell slide to 4.

Alonzo Gif. Galloway ruined our chances for Towns 
But yes, I prefer Mudiay over Russell. Better athlete, better finisher, potentially becomes a better defender. Worse shooter yes, but I don't think he'll be a liability. Just needs to smooth out his release. Russell has the edge passing wise, but it's not by some historic margin.
I like Tyus for a team like the Mavs or even Bucks honestly.

DX has Mudiay going #7 in their latest mock 
Givony said his workouts haven't been great & he's out of shape

The other day they were talking about how Mudiay was in great shape and how he put on a ton of muscle.I have heard he's been shooting badly in workouts though. Not a good sign - but probably isn't enough to make him drop. I'm sure it has more to do with Kris, Mario, and Trill raising their stock.

Yeah, he's gotta be having some terrible workouts in order to fall so much.

Any report you hear about him being out of shape is obviously false. I'm not listening to any more BS reporters until after Thursday

Wish we could just fast forward till next years draft. Simmons and Skal got next.
This draft is average at best.

I wholeheartedly disagree. From top to bottom, this draft is a lot deeper than what next year is shaping up to be.

I think we're suffering from a lil decency bias. IMO, this was a historically week year in college Bball.
The top prospects for the '16 draft have Superstar potential.
Simmons
Skal
Diallo
Brown
Are better prospects than
Towns
Okafor
Mudiay
Russell
But you may be right about depth. Interesting to see how it shapes out over the course of the season. Im just more excited about next years prospects and the '17 draft. Feel like there are some big time prospects there.

Next year is considered more top heavy, but this years has em in depth
Right now I'm more interested in how the middle section and the end of the first round go
I see alot of value in this draft and even some potential sleeper players who can become stars in their own right

From what I've seen and read, I don't think Simmons has superstar potential at all. Seems like a good, smart player though.
