I think the team that drafts these guys is the most important part to their success at the next level. Here's my opinion on the guys "best fit" and "worst fit".

Karl Anthony-Towns:
Best fit: New York (bright lights, big city plus KAT already has an NBA superstar on his team. IMO they could be a playoff team next year.)
Worst fit: Philly (Already got Nerlens on the roster and it seems like the front office blows up the roster yearly.)

Willie Trill(lol) Cauley-Stein
Best fit: Miami/Sacramento (Both of these destinations give Willie a chance to learn from an offensively gifted big guy. Willie could use that)
Worst fit: Detroit (They already have Drummond in the fold. Not a lot of room for another big man that is limited offensively)

Trey Lyles-
Best fit: Indiana (Cue nostalgia laced story about coming home. Use Diddy "Coming Home" or Kanye West "Homecoming" as the theme music haha)
Worst fit: Utah (They have a couple of horses at the 3 and 4. Could cause Trey's minutes and development to stall)

Devin Booker
Best fit: OKC (Booker could grow into a very prominent role on this team. OKC needs a second unit scorer. They've miss Harden since the day he left.)
Worst fit: Milwaukee (OJ Mayo or Jarred Bayless would be his mentors. YIKES!)

Dakari Johnson
Best fit: San Antonio (Dakari's chances of sticking in the league improved exponentially under the guidance or Pop and Tim Duncan)
Worst fit: Golden State (Dakari's game doesn't fit their style of play.)

Andrew Harrison
Best fit: Chicago (With Rose getting injured quite frequently these day Andrew could come in a be the stopgap the Bulls always seem to be looking for.)
Worst fit: OKC (Westbrook will hinder Andrew's development because frankly he ain't playing that much with Westbrook around)

Aaaron Harrison
Best fit: Golden State (Aaron will fit right in with the run and gun style they play. Curry and Thompson will take the pressure off him to be the big shot maker. I think his percentage improves that way)
Worst fit: Phoneix (Too many players like him on the team. What makes him stand out from Brandon Knight or Archie Goodwin?)


Guys feel free to debate/offer up your thoughts!
 
Not bad. A few thoughts:

Trey to Utah would give the Jazz too many Trey's

Aaron to Golden State isn't a great fit, unless something happens to their roster. They already have Klay, Iggy, Barbosa, Justin Holiday, and Brandon Rush as shooting guards. He may get lost in the shuffle over there.
 
KAT- ny or Minnesota. While I agree with him being a superstar in NY I think the better team will be Minn.. Him with wiggins, levine and a real pg in Rubio is a better fit than the Knicks.

WCS- anywhere but Sacramento. I think Carl would be a great coach for him but I don't see him having any chance to develop an offensive game and I don't see a fit there.
 
I think the Knicks will 100% get the #1 pick (no matter what, just wait and see), so Towns will get to rebound Melo's jack it up and miss a lot offense.

I'd love to see Towns to the Lakers at starting C with Randle, or maybe even with Love coming over as well with Randle as the 6th man, but I doubt the Lakers get the #1. I just hope the Lakers stay top 5 so Philly does not get the pick.
 
I would like to see them all drafted by the Kentucky Colonels or the Flint Michigan Tropics. Jackie Moon would work wonders with them boys. Getting to play along side Clarence DownTown Funky Malone would be a site!
