Enough is enough

He's definitely not that low. He's being mocked in the 5-11 range currently (5 on nbadraftnet, 11 on draftexpress).

The top 2 are relatively easy. Who do you feel is in the discussion for #3? Below that doesn't really matter for the Lakers, as they would lose the pick. I can't see them picking Dunn (another PG) or Bender. I like Jaylon Brown, but his perimeter game has a long way to go.

I meant he's 22 or 23 age wise. I see how that reads wrong. What I'm saying is given his age, he's already close to his ceiling prospect wise. Teams draft on potential when you've a pick that high because you're gunning for stars. Hield is close to a finished product and looks more like a solid starter. He's a late lottery pick, somewhere 8 to 12 probably. He might creep higher since the draft class is pretty damn weak outside of Simmons and Ingram.

That was kind of my point. Unless you want to draft a Euro center or another PG, who else would you mock to the Lakers at 3? Jaylen Brown would be one, but his perimeter game is pretty shaky right now.
