11. Charlotte Hornets – Miles Bridges

(Original Pick – Shai Gilgeous-Alexander)

Miles Bridges has played well for the Hornets, using his athleticism to put down some impressive dunks. He is a wing who can walk and chew gum at the same time, so he is still going in the lottery.

12. Los Angeles Clippers – Collin Sexton

(Original Pick – Miles Bridges)

Sexton is probably one of the most controversial players to place in this draft. I have no clue if people will think this is too high or too low. On one hand, Sexton is averaging 18.2 points per game and has played the most minutes out of any player in this draft. On the other hand, he only averages 2.2 assists per game, and currently has a win share of 0.3. Out of lottery picks, only Jerome Robinson (0.0) and Kevin Knox (-1.0) are lower.

13. Los Angeles Clippers – Mitchell Robinson

(Original Pick – Jerome Robinson)

Robinson on the other hand is an advanced analytics darling, with 9.8 Win Shares, second in the class behind Doncic. Robinson also leads the NBA with a .716 field goal percentage, largely due to the fact that he plays within himself and scores almost exclusively at the rim. Robinson is a great shot blocker as well, which makes him and intriguing prospect.

14. Denver Nuggets – Mikal Bridges

(Original Pick – Michael Porter Jr.)

Mikal Bridges is a defensive hound for the Phoenix Suns,. However, his shot derailed since shooting 40% from three at Villanova. He is currently shooting 29.7% from three, and only playing 22 minutes a game. I almost went with Bruce Brown here, but it was difficult to justify drafting a guard with so many guys in front of him.
