Over the last few day, momentum for the No. 5 pick has shifted from Mikel Brown Jr. to Keaton Wagler.
If he's there at No. 6, the Nets will have a decision to make between Brown, Nate Ament, or possibly trading down, with the Bucks & others holding strong interest in Brown.
Mikel Brown Jr. is now in Los Angeles and has already met with president of basketball operations Lawrence Frank, sources say, before a workout later this week, per @JakeLFischer.

Marc Spears doesn’t see the Clippers getting involved in a 3 team deal acquiring Jaylen Brown to get Giannis to Boston:
“They’ve been talking about a 3 way deal where Jaylen Brown would be going from the Celtics, to the Clippers, and Giannis would be going to Boston. From what I’m hearing Boston would certainly love to have Giannis but respectfully I don’t know if the Clippers feel the same about Jaylen and I don’t think from what I’ve been told have been any conversations there. One thing about the Clippers, they’re enjoying this youth movement”
Most teams picking behind the Clippers are currently operating under the assumption that LA will stand pat and keep their No. 5 overall selection, per @JakeLFischer.
