In 2016, Macolm Brogdon was picked at 36.

Basically, we have a shot at a good player. (Did I just hype myself up for Dwayne Bacon? Life of a Mavs fan.)

The good news for us is there isn't much difference in terms of talent between pick 37 and pick 15 in this draft.
The bad news is there isn't much difference in terms of talent between the 15th pick and 37th pick in this draft compared to other drafts.

In other words it will be extremely difficult to find a diamond in the rough in this draft so getting another Brunson caliber player in the 2nd round has a low chance of happening. Brunson would have most likely been a 1st rounder in this draft.
