Players like this is what makes me think they will trade down. Remember last year having so many picks mentioned that people really thought would amount to something special. Only to see during the year they were just regular college kids. Trust the FO and know they will pick solid players in the draft. Just do not think I see anyone at the 11 spot that is above and beyond some of the early second rounders.
I would trade back before selecting AJ Griffin. He's talented and seems like a good shooter. I'd look elsewhere due to the injury history, fact that he's built similarly to RJ, not a defender, we have too many wings to begin with... Unless he's special (which I don't see any specific skills or attribute) we should look to fill other needs. Otherwise we end up with just another wing to compete with Fournier, Burks, Cam, etc... I would go Johnny Davis over him but would trade back if JD is gone.

If we go wing position(which is inevitable) I want a guy who can shoot. I’m so sick of drafting SHooting guards who can’t shoot
