We need a SF badly and Bridges fits the bill as an athlete forward who can step right in and provide value on both ends. Huge upside there and can contribute right away. He would be the best athlete on the team.
I like Bridges but i think K.Knox could be a special player and he should also be sitting there around 5-7.
He could be a very good option as well. I will just want to see him play a bunch before making an assumption about him.
Miles is good, but it's okay to dream a little bigger. Doncic, Porter and Bagley are still in play.
And now after our first win we're at like #6
Duval can't shoot. Has two way potential and has a great handle and drive to the basket but he s gotta work on his shot
I know it's early but I think this team is going to need more quick guards who can get their shot and penetrate. Even if Frank adds this to his game steadily, our team is definitely lacking in this area up and down the roster. Everyone goes east to west, not north and south and when those 3's stop falling, someone has to get to the rim and finish or dish. I know we got by charlotte today but imagine what a guy like kemba would do for us. Frank can toggle between the 1-3 because he's so versatile defensively.
Maybe our surprise non-tank is not going to burn us after all and we get a guard like this in the 10 to 20 range to add to the mix.

There some good players. Im sticking with Brunson--I love him and Im adding in Grayson Allen who looks like he will be playing a bulk of Dukes PG position--is great north and south but has the J passing and a decent defender. But I hear what you are saying--we dont have the juice from the guard position. Well see--long long season ahead.
