15. Portland Trailblazers- Donovan Mitchell, SG, Louisville
The Trailblazers have three 1st round picks and would land a steal here at No. 15. Donovan Mitchell is an athletic guard who competes on the defensive end. He’d give the Trailblazers some help around the offensive-oreiented combo of Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum.

The Chicago Bulls desperately need shooting and that’s exactly what Terrance Ferguson brings to the table. He’s a raw player, but has the upside to be a top-end shooter in the league. His stock has slid a little after deciding to bypass college and play in Australia.
17. Milwaukee Bucks- Justin Jackson, SF, North Carolina
The Milwaukee Bucks have a talented core in place and are looking for complementary pieces. Justin Jackson is an experienced player who can shoot from deep and work down low. He’s someone that could take pressure off of Giannis Antetokounmpo and Jabari Parker.
