This episode of Ballcourt - Coach Drew analyzes the drafts and potential trades for the NBA Draft 2020. Everything is moving at a fast pace. The season will be back up in 30 days. Wow! Topics Include: NBA coming back at a fevered pace Tentative 2020/21 NBA schedule: December 22: Opening night. All-Star Break (minus an ASG): March 5-10May 16: Regular season endsMay 17-to-21: Play-in tournament for 7-to-10 seeds. May 22: First-round playoffsJune 7: Conference semifinalsJune 22: Conference FinalsJuly 8-22: NBA Finals Draft Results 2020 Draft Notes: Anthony Edwards SG Georgia Edwards, at 6-5 with a 6-9 wingspan and elite athletic tools, is a natural shooting guard that could potentially defend 1-3 and even make enough plays for teammates to moonlight as a point guard. His best trait by far is his overall scoring. While Edwards isn't quite an elite shooter yet, he is a sophisticated individual shot-creator for his age that gets to the basket and thrives in transition. He'll put the ball in the basket from Day 1. James Wiseman C Memphis His raw talent virtually guaranteed that would be the case. Wiseman is an elite athlete at 7-1, and with a 7-6 wingspan, he has the tools to be among the NBA's best rim-protectors. Lamelo Ball G Ilwara Hawks Ball, a 6-7 point guard, is one of the best passers ever to enter the NBA Draft. He shares his brother's gift for showmanship in transition, but pairs it with a far more functional arsenal of half-court passes that should make him an effective pick-and-roll ball-handler from the moment he steps on an NBA floor. Obi Toppin PF Dayton Toppin is going to be an excellent pick-and-roll finisher even as a rookie thanks to his elite leaping ability and craft near the basket. That alone makes him a valuable offensive player. The new look NBA ( trades and rumors) Suns acquire Chris Paul from ThunderThe Oklahoma City Thunder have traded Chris Paul to the Phoenix Suns for four players and a first-round draft pick on Monday.
