Dear god. Rudy Gobert measured wingspan at 7'8.5". Andre Drummond at 7'6.25".

And Ayton measures in at a mere 7’5.5”.

I hear Ayton has a standing reach of 9’3” and a 45-inch vertical. That means, if my math is right, he has enough hops to jump, grab the top of the backboard, and hang there. If his teammates can throw accurate lobs, he should be able to outjump almost any defender to throw them down.

I'm pretty sure he isn't 7 feet 5.5 inches tall. Oh, maybe you're talking wingspan.

Height, measured in platform shoes.

On another note, two guys that are impressing at the combine with their play and athletic testing: Donte Divencenzo and Kevin Heurter. I thought both would go back to school, but they both may have moved into round 1. Options at 31 or maybe 16 if we really love them. Divencenzo had the highest vertical at 42 inches and Heurter measures out really well, tested well athletically and is probably a top 3 pure shooter in the draft.

Well, if you have 17 of them, that’s probably enough, given current rules on roster size and so on.

Problem is they need win now pieces and we don't really have any unless they value Warren in that sense. And if you are a third team that provides relevant vets for MEM in exchange for future, you do it for the #4, not our prospects/draft stock, so we get cut out, although I guess if you put Jackson on the table, anything is possible. And obviousy if they are fool enough to take less value so we swallow Parsons, by all means let them go for it.

Nah, if we had #1 and #4, you take Ayton, reach an agreement with Doncic's camp to scare away SAC and ATL and pull the draft heist of the century. Ha!
