And trade again, 5 for 2! Crazy, 5 giant lineup

NBA draft will continue on the second day.

Since the draft had several transactions before it even started, including 2 trades in the Suns.

They first used the No. 36 sign in hand + the next two rotations to get the No. 31 sign this year.

PS: These two second rounds are the worst picks for the Nuggets/Warriors in 2026 and the better one for the Suns/Rockets in 2032.

After that, they exchanged the Warriors' No. 41 draws for this year's No. 52 and No. 59 draws.

In a word, the sun used 5 rotations to rotate 2 second rotations.

They used this No. 31 pick to choose Rashiel Fleming from St. Joseph University 2.03. The template for this bare-footed power forward is Larry Nance Jr.

Fleming has already been firmly in the NCAA for the first two years of his college career, but what really makes him able to participate in the NBA draft was his junior year of rising. After his turn to center this year, his data increased to 14.7+8.5+1.5 blocks, and his three-point shooting percentage soared to 39%, and his last projection type No. 4-5 positions in this draft.

Although Fleming takes turns playing in the 4-5 position, due to his lack of mobility and basically no central shot, his biggest selling point in the NBA is the squat pit coverage area of ​​2.27 meters and 27 meters. Experts generally predict that he will be on the center position of the small lineup after entering the NBA.

If you play center again...

Then include Maluach, who was selected at the No. 10 position (known as the number one center in this draft) and the Mawei who won the No. 29 draw yesterday.

The team's current inside players who can play center include Ma Wei, Richards, Maluarch, Iguodaro, and the 31st pick player selected today, Fleming, who suddenly became a 5-giant lineup?

The Suns had a serious shortage of people at the No. 5 position last year, and they were the team that lacked the most center. Nurkic was sent away in the season for Richards, but still could not make up for the hole in the Suns' serious defense black hole in the interior.

This year's draft picks three inside players, and now the center is seriously full.

Make the strange four different from Boll Boll's guest appearance as a center, and the 35-year-old Mason Plumley's days of playing as a main center are gone.

Will this be a little too strong? Of course luck is on their side, and no one expected that MaluAchi would fall to the 10th pick and be selected. (Originally, they refused to exchange the No. 10 pick with the Rockets. They wanted to go back to their first round in 2027 because they felt that they could not choose a good inside player with the No. 10 pick)

, but they were quite crying. The Suns now have no choice but to play maliciously without their picks. If they want to rebuild, they can only change their fate by trading.

This draft was also considered to have burned out all of itself. It shuffled the inside through 4 trades, and at the end, it selected three-pointer Kobe Brea with the integrated No. 41 pick and improved his long-range shooting ability to make up for the shortcomings.

The Sun seemed to lose a bit in the first transaction, and paid the price of 3 second rounds just to improve the 5 rankings. But in fact, it cannot be analyzed so simply.

Since the draft was divided into two days last year, the 31st pick has become an extremely ambiguous sign.

Compared to the end of the first round, the players who are constantly selected by chance, after a day of rest, each team can seriously consider the advantages and disadvantages of the players to be selected in the draft pool, and even the players who may be selected may be more useful than those at the end of the first round.

So now the top picks in the second round, especially 31 Shuneng, have now become the golden pick. The players selected here are basically the players the team has considered the final choice all night, and the era of choosing a supporting role in the past is over when they just followed the first round pick.

Some media even said that the 31st pick is now the second No. 1 pick in the draft. (It is indeed the No. 1 pick, the No. 1 pick in the second round)

And the second round player contract is lower than the first round player. If you choose a better player, the cost-effectiveness will definitely be enough.

Jonathan Mogbo, who was selected by the Raptors at the 31st last year, had no traffic because he went to a non-popular team, but he immediately became the main player when he joined the team, and averaged 30 minutes per game in the last three months.

After all, this was the team's choice that they considered for a night!

So you see that there are indeed many trading in the first half of the second round, except for the Suns trading...

The Lakers soared from 55 to 36 through 2 trades to pick the short inside Tiduro.

Magic even used 4 second rounds to exchange for the Celtics' No. 32 pick to select French striker Noah Ponda.

are all about grabbing the position in the front part of the second round! !
