2018 NBA Draft

I was pretty high on Carter until I saw DXpress's scouting video on his weaknesses. Lateral quickness is nearly non-existent. Can't have that in today's NBA. Guards will blow guy him like he is standing still.

This is exactly my criticism of him. Very skilled though

Carter is a big I'd be interested in trying to develop if we picked somewhere in the 7-12 range, but at #5 I like the upside of Bamba and JJJ a lot better... They're both more compete players when it comes to their all-around game, plus their ceiling appears to be a lot higher.
