14. Los Angeles Clippers: Robert Williams PF/C Texas A&M
Big Board Rank: 20
The Clippers round out the lottery doubling up on big men. Mitchell Robinson or a wing like Lonnie Walker or Jacob Evans is definitely a possibility. However, the Clippers already selected one high upside player here with Daniel Gafford, so they are going to be more cautious with this pick.
Obviously if the Clippers resign DeAndre Jordan they probably don’t select Robert Williams, but like previously stated I’m assuming they’re not. It makes sense for them to look for more depth here since Boban Marjanovic isn’t going to cut it. Williams is a high level athlete and shot blocker like Gafford, but Williams is more NBA ready. I assume Williams will be thrown in the rotation for important minutes while they give Gafford time to develop.
