remains to be seen if they're the old or new Suns. We'll definitely know when they make the pick, but until then, I can't lie. I'm a little nervous they find a way to screw this up.

But just a little nervous. I'm OVERWHELMINGLY ELATED!

I know exactly how you feel. However, the old Suns do not win the lottery.

I'm taking a huge leap here, but I'm hoping this removes the dark cloud that's been hanging over the Suns since they missed out on Kareem and David Robinson.

Almost every news outlet has us picking Ayton. McD better not get cute.

that is my only fear... sometimes McD comes off as having the "smartest man in the room" complex. This isn't that type to do this. Ayton's got the highest floor and the highest ceiling in the draft. He's the pick.

Wouldn't it be such classic Suns if they take the Guard over the franchise big man that all of us fans have wanted and been missing basically forever?

Who knows maybe Doncic is the slovakian MJ but as a lifelong Suns fan, I want Ayton. FINALLY get our #1 pick and we FINALLY get our franchise big man. It's just meant to be.

I don't think McDonough takes a guard over Ayton.

He is probably checking to see if he can get Anthony Davis and a couple of first round picks for the #1 pick.

:D

Did you mean highest floor?

I don't think there's any chance we take someone else. It's Ayton. The only question will be what we do with 16 and 31. Hopefully we package them with other picks and take the best of Young, SGA or Sexton.
