26. Philadelphia 76ers

With three first round picks it makes sense for the 76ers to use a pick on a player who might not come straight to the NBA. Hernangomez may prove to be ready but he gives the 76ers the option to wait.. PF. Spain. Juan Hernangomez . 26. player. 93

27. Toronto Raptors

Thon Maker . 27. player. 81. The Raptors have the luxury of making a boom-or-bust pick considering their status as one of the Eastern Conference’s best teams and that they also have a top ten pick in addition to their own pick here. That situation makes Thon Maker and intriguing choice given his height and shooting range. The Raptors may not get anything out of Maker next season, or ever, but they also could strike gold with some patience.. C. Australia

28. Phoenix Suns

player. 66. The Suns can take a bit more of a risk with their third pick of the 2016 NBA Draft and Ben Bentil is a guy that comes with questions but emerged as a scorer for Providence last season.. PF. Providence. Ben Bentil . 28

29. San Antonio Spurs

PF. France. Petr Cornelie . 29. player. 29. An international player for the Spurs? Shocking, I know. It’s a very Spurs thing to do and Petr Cornelie looks like a great fit. He’s another skilled big man comfortable stepping outside given his nice shooting form, and should only get better inside as he fills out his seven-foot frame.

30. Golden State Warriors

Zhou Qi . 30. player. 41. With only <a href=. C. China
