Finishing up with the final three picks in our NBA Fan Mock Draft is CF making the last pick for Philly ...
Last 5 Picks
25. Jazz chose Arron Afflalo
26. Rockets chose Javaris Crittenton
27. Pistons chose Aaron Brooks
28. Spurs chose Jared Dudley
29. Suns chose Petteri Koponen
Considering: Nick Fazekas, Daequan Cook, Rudy Fernandez, Marc Gasol and Morris Almond
Previous selections in this FanIQ Mock Draft netted Acie Law 12th and Wilson Chandler at 22. (FYI, I highlight doubt the 76ers use all three of these picks. They'll trade two to move up to early teens.)
That 76ers still desperately need a decent PF and I really like Fazekas offensive promise in the NBA. But I'm afraid he'll pick up where Shawn Bradley left off and become the next tall white guy that gets dunked on constantly.
Channeling my inner Hubie Brown, Daequan Cook has the most tremendous upside potential of the remaining prospects. No offense to Kyle Korver who I like (and my girlfriend likes infinitely more), but he's not the future SG for the 76ers. Cook present the possibly of an explosive scorer who actually can play some D as well.
I don't know a great deal about Fernandez, definitely an intriguing option, and Morris Almond can score as well as anyone. I like the comparisons to Michael Redd.
My choice comes down to the biggest need ... and perhaps I've been swayed by Mr. Hollinger.
My Pick: Nick Fazekas, F, Nevada
