I say Towns #1, Porzingis #2, Booker #3... Unclear from there.

You're really overrating Booker. He's on my team and I follow him closely. He's a super inefficient, 1 dimensional chucker at this point. Dlo is a better prospect and it's not even close.

Which player would you compare him to? Does he play any defense?

Not sure. I know he's killing my team again tonight with a 2/11 half. This guy man...

That ain't a bad list. Although I'd have Russ/Poz 2a/2b.

I was being a homer there, and there isn't any shame in falling behind Porzingis right now.

I wonder if anyone will care about Cam Payne being so high without playing a minute yet this season and Powell/Nance being overrated due to age.

Nance is definitely way too high. He's an energy guy with questionable skills-- I like having him, but if someone offered Winslow/Mudiay/WCS/Johnson for him then I'd trade him in a heartbeat.

See, I'd also characterize Winslow, Johnson, and certainly WCS (23 years old) as energy guys with questionable skills, but Johnson and Winslow at least have age on their side. I think Nance has third banana/star role player upside as do Johnson and Winslow, but the latter two have more time to get there than Nance at age 24.

Mudiay has the most upside, but his downside is remaining high usage and inefficient. I can see wanting to take the gamble on him.
