⚖️ The depth report of the three No. 1 picks lineup

Golden Triangle Advantage

▸ Age gradient: Irving (organization) + Davis (inside line) + Flag (forward line)

▸ Position complementarity: Russell + Irving (outside firepower), Davis (reign of penalty area), Flag (all-around tandem)

⚠️ Realistic challenge

▸ Injury risk: Irving average attendance of 58 games in the past three seasons (68% attendance rate)

▸ Run-in pressure: Flag needs to adapt to the NBA intensity, and new player Russell needs to integrate into the system
