I agree with your take here. No one on here knows who Vlade will end up drafting and just because Luka is a consensus top 3 pick doesn't always mean it will pan out that way...for all we know Vlade and co. might have more interest in a player like Bagley, Porter or Bamba. As far as I'm concerned, he doesn't have "his" guy until he sees them in individual workouts and team workouts and then makes further assessment and gets more input from his staff on the best player to take for the team. He's Euro and he's flying out to Euro to watch him play so therefore he must be 100 percent invested in Luka....he's doing what any GM in his position would do, nothing more, nothing less.
Suns owner and their assistant GM were in Belgrade for the final 4 too, does that mean Doncic is also Phoenix's owner's guy when all the reports suggest that it might be Ayton?
I think Doncic is Vlade's pick because he fits the mold of what he wants to build. He is a smart player who has all the skills and fits perfectly into a motion offense where everyone passes.
