Innumerable mock drafts and countless armchair analyses from fans, brings us to ponder a finite number of possibilities. James Ham's June 12 tweet has gotten a lot of mileage in the past few days:
FYI: my sources say that Drummond is not the pick at 5 for the Sac Kings. Whoever is left of Beal, Robinson, Harrison, and MKG is.FWIW.
If what his sources tell him turns out to be true, then the top five picks will most likely come down to five players, given the current general consensus. With the exception of Anthony Davis, who is expected to go first, much of the discussion surrounds the future picks of these four guys, Barnes, Beal, MKG, and Robinson.
There does seem to be quite a bit of discrepancy of opinion on just how those four are going to play out and who will be remaining when it is Sacramento's turn to select. There are 24 possible permutations, with Anthony going first.
For the sake of argument, let's say these are the five players that will be selected in the top five picks. Given this hypothetical situation: How do you think this will play out on draft day?
