The team has invested most heavily in past drafts in the backcourt, using a first-round pick on Jalen Hood-Schifino last season and a second on shooting guard/small forward Max Christie the year before. Austin Reaves has been the biggest developmental victory, and he's a guard too.
Devin Carter, the Providence guard, has seen his stock rise in the pre-draft process and probably has played himself into the lottery. Two other high-profile players that could be there at No. 17 are USC guard Isaiah Collier and Duke guard Jared McCain.
