28. Denver Nuggets select Bobi Klintman

Klintman showcased a versatile skill set in the NBL, but the consistency is lacking. Denver loves to have size and skill on the floor. The 21-year-old is a 6’10 forward capable of knocking down jumpers, handling the ball, and guarding multiple positions. There are still plenty of head-scratching moments, but Klintman could be a key piece if he reaches his potential.

The Nuggets need role players on rookie contracts to keep their spending down. They keep shooting for versatile two-way options with upside. Klintman fits that mold. Denver hopes he blossoms into a stretch four capable of backing up Aaron Gordon.

29. Jazz (via Thunder) take Baylor Scheierman

The Jazz were in the top ten in 3-pointers attempted but finished just 22nd in percentage. They need shooting and should be searching for role players to round out their roster.

Scheierman played five years of college basketball and shot 39.0 percent from 3-point range for his career. He kept improving. The 23-year-old has upgraded his defense, playmaking, and versatility. Any team looking for a shooter will have interest, and fans should expect him to come off the board in the late first round.

30. Boston Celtics draft Cam Christie

The Celtics have spending issues and will be searching for a capable rotation piece with this selection. Boston tried to find a reserve wing to use behind Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown last summer, but they struck out. Do not be surprised to see them draft one here.

Christie’s brother plays in the NBA, and the 6’5 wing is a plus shooter with defensive upside. His minutes will be limited, but the 19-year-old may be able to become an impactful reserve as Boston looks to make another run.

The San Antonio Spurs have two more picks in the 2024 NBA Draft. Expect plenty of excitement on June 26 and 27. San Antonio will be searching for pieces that fit next to Victor Wembanyama. It will be a crucial night, so tune in and enjoy.
