17. San Antonio Spurs (via TOR) – Jean Montero, G, Overtime Elite

With their second first-round pick, expect the San Antonio Spurs to try and add to their backcourt. Jean Montero could be an option for the Spurs. He elected to play for Overtime Elite instead of college basketball and there’s no question it will have an impact on his draft class.

Perhaps he’d be in a better position if more eyes were on him?

18. Minnesota Timberwolves – Tari Eason, F, LSU

The Minnesota Timberwolves have been one of the most improved teams this season and adding a player at the draft that could continue to help this team build would go a long way in taking another step next season.

Tari Eason could be that player for the Wolves as he would add depth to their frontcourt and could be an interesting developmental project next to Karl-Anthony Towns.
