Kispert seems to have lost a lot of shine recently, so I don't think he's a lock for the lotto.The top of this draft is absolutely loaded. I think Cunningham/Mobley/Green/Suggs all have the makings to turn into complete stars.
That's why I've been pushing for the tank lately. Someone said in another thread "doesn't it make less sense to tank in a deep draft?"... and the answer is no ---- not if the top 3-4 are a fairly big gap away from the next tier.
I think as long as we're in the top 5 picks we are golden because even Kuminga has a very high ceiling but needs polishing. We start slipping to the 6,7,8.9 picks then you might see the Cavs reach for someone because of "fit" instead of potential (Corey Kispert comes to mind and it makes me sick to think about).
However, I really like Sengun, Giddey, Barnes, and Jalen Johnson out of the non-top 5 guys. I'd probably put at least one of them ahead of Cade Cunningham.
