Chances of Getting Mikal Bridges

I'm going throuhg if I was every GM of each team leading up to the Sixers and assuming the draft order is somewhat orthodox to the current standings. There are a lot of bad teams, but I made picks for every bad team based on tiers, that to me make sense based on their current rosters.

Memphis - Doncic - Conley, Gasol, Parsons. I think Doncic fits really well with this team that already has Gasol so whats the need for Ayton when you can bring an exciting Euroball player to a traditional grit and grind team. I think Doncic reinvigorates Conley and Gasol and their Franchise. I just don't get why they'd draft Ayton if they already have Gasol for probably two or three more years.

Phoenix -Bagley - Booker, Josh Jackson, TJ Warren. Maybe a strange pick but I think Phoenix should select Bamba over Ayton. Bamba is a defensive option that won't stop the ball and keep it moving while mainly in Booker's hands. I'd rather see Ayton in Atlanta. But I think they'll take Bagley. He's a solid offensive option that complements Booker well. Can see them using Bagley like a Timmy Duncan.

Atlanta - Ayton - Schroeder, Bazemore, John Collins. Collins is a nice player and Bamba would be nice next to him, so would Porter. But I like Ayton. Ayton brings some much needed excitement to a boring Atlanta franchise. Ayton and Schroeder )the more typical PG) is nice. \\

Cleveland - Bamba - Assuming Lebron leaves. Would love to see Doncic with the same roster Lebron left and see how it turns out. But I want Porter. I think Porter fits well with the team they run out and is a good offensie option. I see them taking Bamba if left iwth him because they'll finally have a real bigman which is something they've been lacking.

Dallas -Jackson Jr - Dennis Smith, Harrison Barnes. Jaren Jackson spreads the floor for Smith Jr, and also proides some much needed defense, and is the heir apparent to Dirk. Bamba or Bagley could also work here.

Orlando - Young - This team desperately needs a playmaker. Bagley would be really nice here, but I think they go with Trae Young even though he fizzled. I want to see Young set up Gordon and Isaac and Vucevic etc.

Sacramento - Porter - Fox, Hield, Bogdanovic are decent guards. Justin Jackson is okay. They have a bunch of bigs that are basically nobodies right now in the NBA. Portwe gives them some much needed dependable offense.

Chicago - Wendell Carter - Dunn, Lavine, Markkanen. A solid bigman would help them. This is where MIKAL Bridges, the 3 and D for the future of the team, becomes relevant too. However this is the year of bigmen in the draft so if Chicago is smart, they'll get their bigman here and play their plenty of swings like Valentine. I don't think Mikal Bridges is the homerun here, but he could easily be gone there.

Knicks -Mikal Bridges- Mudiay, Ntilinka, Porzingis, Kanter. Clearly missing is a 3 and D swing. The only question is which one they'll take. I could see them reaching and take Lonnie Walker here. Mikal Bridges is definitely in play. Knox gives you more dynamic scoring. Miles Bridges brings you excitement off the bench. Mikal Bridges is a really nice fit in Chicago or New York though. The Knicks need help everywhere so maybe they trade down with Philly and take Knox or Miles, for TLC, or the Sixers first.

Hornets - Sexton - Kemba possibly leaving could mean they take the tough guard in Sexton. They need more offense so Knox isn't a bad option here. Batum and Mikal Bridges are the same player so doubt they take him.

Sixers - That leaves Philly with either of the Bridges or Knox...whichever is left over. I don't want Knox although he's a decent scorer. I don't like his frame or defense. Miles Brdiges would not be a bad energy player off the bench. Lonnie Walker should also be in play here. My preference is Mikal, Lonnie, then Miles, then Knox.
