    A+ for Stone so far.

    A++ if it turns out later on that he threw out smoke screen on Banchero this whole time and baited Orlando into taking him.

    Stone’s gonna finish this draft off with TyTy at 26. What another draft haul. Stunners for everyone.

    already better than expectations!

    lets see how we finish...

    i'm still thinking we deal Ego.... and snag another upper pick player.

    I mean this draft was fking straight wizardry

    We got arguably the consensus #1 pick
    We got arguably the best defender in the class and a massive wing player
    We got he best PG in the class (who some were saying we'd pick at 17 instead we picked him not even at 26 but at 29 in return for two other 2nd round picks)

    I mean what this is insane!

    The Rockets had the best draft of the night by far. All 3 players can start right away or at least be in the rotation from day one.

    Gotta give it an A, Stone’s been very good at getting great value with picks just wish he could do the same in trades
