21. Denver Nuggets – Kennedy Chandler, G, Tennessee

The Denver Nuggets are all-in on this core and need to get right heading into next season. Jamal Murray is finally expected to be back and healthy, and Nikola Jokic is in the midst of his prime. Adding some depth to the backcourt with the No. 21 pick could be a move.

Kennedy Chandler should be an option if he’s on the board at this point in the draft.

22. Memphis Grizzlies – Nikola Jovic, F, International

The Memphis Grizzlies are another up-and-coming team in the Western Conference that has made major strides in the last couple of seasons. Looking to continue their momentum, Nikola Jovic could be an option for the team at No. 22.
