1. Memphis Grizzlies

Biggest Team Need: Wings 

Dream Selection: Luka Doncic, G/F 

Luka Doncic is the exact player that the Memphis Grizzlies need. The team is set with Marc Gasol and Mike Conley at the point guard and center positions, and could slide Luka Doncic into the 2, 3 or 4 position.

Doncic could come right in and be the athletic threat on the wing that could certainly make a huge different next season. His ceiling is higher than anything they could’ve envisioned with even a healthy Chandler Parsons, and this selection would certainly ease the strain of Parsons’ inability to remain healthy.
