Top Ten Bold Predictions for the 2019 NBA Draft

The draft is just a few hours away. Let's look at some bold predictions for this draft.
The voting period for this list has ended.
The Top Ten
1 Cam Reddish is Drafted 5th

I could see the Cavs taking a flyer on Cam. He would be a great match next to Collin Sexton. He has a nice jumper. Their have been a lot of talk about his commitment to the game though.

Didn't happen

2 The Knicks Don't Take R.J. Barrett

The Knicks are good at making the wrong choice. Their has been a lot of rumors about how the Knicks won't take R.J. Jarrett Culver and Darius Garland have entered the conversation. I would be fine if they took Darius Garland just because of his upside and talent.

Didn't happen.

3 The Timberwolves Trade up to Number 4

This would obviously be for Darius Garland. Garland is very talented and if it wasn't for his Torn Meniscus he might've been the top Point Guard. Expect a team like the Wolves to trade up for him.

The Timberwolves did trade up, but just not to number 4. They traded to number 6 and they hoped they could get Garland.

4 Bol Bol is Taken in the Lottery

I think one team will pick Bol Bol. Bol is a beast. He can do almost everything. If Bol can put on weight and if he can not get injured, he will be good.

Not even close.

5 Role Players Rise

If there is one thing we learned from the Finals, it is role players are very important. We have a good amount of role players in this draft; DeAndre Hunter, Brandon Clarke, Dylan Windler, Grant Williams, Ty Jerome, etc.. Except these players to rise.

This definitely happened. We saw Cam Johnson drafted 11th, Tyler Herro was 13th, and some more role players moved up.

6 Someone Trades Up for Ja Morant

Ja Morant is going to be huge. This is a really bold prediction, but somebody might try to trade for Ja Morant. Morant is a great natural PG. He can definitely be the future of a franchise.

Didn't happen.

7 Admiral Schofield is Taken in the 1st Round

I think their will be a few teams that look at Admiral Schofield and go ahead and take him in the First Round. Schofield can really score and he can maybe a 2nd to 3rd option on a team.

8 Tacko Fall is Taken

I think he will be a 2nd Round Pick. Fall has shown to be a great defender and he will be the tallest player in the league.

9 Nassir Little Rises

Everybody needs to remember Nassir Little was the 2nd best prospect before the college season last year. Nassir Little is powerful and he should be taken earlier than a lot of people have him.

Nassir Little actually went in the opposite direction. He went down.

10 A Star is Traded

I think their is a chance we see a big star traded in the Draft.

No big star got traded.
