Kris Dunn playing the media with his "it'd be great to play in Boston" comments along with not giving them his Medical records and the not working out unless against the top guys.
He knows no one will agree to that so his camp is trying to have him end up in Minny. Thibs apparently loves Bender so if he's gone Dunn won't drop past 5 imo

Dunn or Murray ends up in Philly for Okafor IMO

Bender in Minny would be VERY interesting.
Frontcourt of Wiggins/Bender/Towns under control for at least 6 years. :x
Bruh.

I actually realllllly, really like the fit of Bender with that Wolves team.

DX updated mock draft has Dunn to BOS, Buddy to MIN, Bender to DEN.

Man either they are guessing for Boston or they are throwing everyone off their scent.

I'm pretty sure Boston has been gassing up every player that works out for them in order to try to make the #3 pick seem desirable for a trade partner. If they are truly going to keep the pick, and aren't able to move Bradley or Smart for a big, I think they are going to go with Bender. His bust potential scares me, but if he ends up like an Andrei Kirilenko type, I'll be pretty happy.

I think Bender has a much different floor than AK 47. He's much more offensively skilled and is a legit PF/C
Tough to think of one but maybe a mix between Diaw and Frye (although Frye was a solid rebounder in college if I'm not mistaken)? He's so young and unproven it's tough to really say

Man...having to trade a player as good as Okafor for Murray, someone who is projected to be a microwave scorer off the bench just doesn't sit right with me. It's not equal value, if Oak was in this year's draft, he would compete with Simmons and Ingram for #1. So in essence, it's like trading Ingram/ Simmons or Murray + a role player. There should be future picks along with it.

I've been saying this! people think that Bender will fit perfectly in Boston, but I think he will be a better fit in Minny. He seems to prefer to pass the ball and get teammates involved rather than becoming your #1 scoring option, he seems to be the perfect #3 option for teams. Having the ability to setup Wiggins, KAT and Lavine all while being able to spread the floor will be a thing of beauty.

Not to mention kat can rim protect for bender who himself has potential with that great standing reach
He can also spread the floor for Wiggins
He can also spread the floor for Wiggins

I totally agree with this..After Simmons and Ingram I feel it's a significant dropout..And I know Oak stock somewhat down right Now..but I'm not giving him up for nothing...
I rather keep oak..hope somehow he and Noel can coexist this year..and bring Embiid off the bench until he's healthy enough to to play 35-40 min..I'm not reaching for a guard in this year draft when by all accounts..there are some studs coming out next year draft..both PG and SG position.
