League sources say the Bulls are likely targeting a lead playmaker in the draft, which is why last week’s mock had them taking Killian Hayes. But LaMelo is the most talented passer in this class and is a tempting pick, although one that would immediately raise questions about Zach LaVine and Coby White’s futures in Chicago.
Killian Hayes Rumors
Knicks high on Killian Hayes?
It doesn’t mean the Knicks will pick him if he falls to No. 8 in the NBA Draft, but Killian Hayes currently has a narrow edge as the team’s second point guard on the board after LaMelo Ball, according to NBA sources.
James Edwards III: Killian Hayes on #Pistons’ Sekou Doumbouya: “I have a great relationship with Sekou. I’ve done multiple camps with him. It would be an easy adjustment if I went there because I know him. Playing with him … it would be fun. He’s one of my guys.”
Chase Hughes: Likely top-10 pick Killian Hayes on the Cavs: “They already have two guards so it doesn’t make sense to go with another guard.” That could also be applied to the Wizards, technically, though he was asked about Cleveland.
