2) DeAaron Fox (John Wall) - not a natural shooter but has all the tools including elite defensive traits; understands pace and can collapse a defense and dish or finish

3) Jayson Tatum (Harrison Barnes) - smart, versatile all-around 3

4) Malik Monk (Monta Ellis) - wiry scoring machine; higher upside than Monta due to defensive potential

5) Dennis Smith Jr. (Eric Bledsoe) - has extremely high upside as he recovers from ACL tear, but injury concerns have pushed him down

6) Josh Jackson (Andrew Wiggins) - an elite complementary piece who affects he game in a variety of way but isn't an elite scorer; character concerns push him down

7) Johnathan Isaac (Giannis Antekeounpo) - skilled, lengthy, and versatile... upside is through the roof although lacks the same wiry strength Giannis has

8) Lonzo Ball (Shaun Livingston) - high upside if he can fix his jumper but his game doesn't translate as neatly as others; crazy father and concerns about willingness to stick with team other than LA push him down

9) Miles Bridges (Kent Bazemore) - strong, athletic, versatile... a better version of Justin Anderson

10) Frank Ntilikina (Roddy B) - upside is through the roof but will he translate? Faces the same challenges successful players Giannis and Schroeder did... could go either way
Pretty good but I'd move Jackson to 2, Ball to 3 and push everyone else down but switching 9 and 10. Then I'd trade the 10th pick to either move down to pickup more picks or trade it for a starter quality PG. I like Bridges but think we could get him a little later in the draft. I'm not super high on Fox but think he would be a nice fit with Curry in the backcourt.
