They compare him to Dejuan Blair who fell out of the 1st, if Sullinger did should we take him at 31?

It will never happen. No way he drops that far, because a lot of teams drafting in the later part of round 1, aka the good teams, will be willing to take a chance on him. Its like a second rounder to them anyway that far back. BUT.. if he does fall that far, then yes of course you snap him up with the quickness. That is value x10000 at 31.

That sucks for him. He would have been a guaranteed top five pick if he came out last year. I still think he is a first round pick, but if he did slip to 31, it would depend on what we do in the first round. No need if we already took Robinson, but if we go with a wing, I would definitely consider it.

Couldn't agree more! I'm not a fan of him for top 10, but his offense is too polished for us to ignore him at 31.

If he did slip to #31, then by all means you take him. Too much value there to ignore.

Yeah definitely.

By god yes

I think you're going to get a no brainer approach to the idea of Sullinger being picked at Pick 31 if there for the same reason as DeJuan Blair falling to round 2. It's clearly too much talent to ignore once he's away from guaranteed contract area of being selected in round 1.

[ZackTB23]

Yes, but only if we don't take Robinson at #2.

[dnbman]

You take him no matter who we take in the first. That's huge talent for the 31st. I'll take an embarrassment of riches at the PF spot any time. Sullinger could do spot duties at the 5 also.

I would be seriously shocked if he fell that far.
