    Is it bad medicals?

    I remember rumors of a "sure fire lottery pick" free falling due to conditioning problems including vaping during tryouts and being winded and out of shape while also not interviewing well.

    I hope this isnt cam, but even if so, completely worth the risk no matter the concerns here.

    Rockets are probably the most athletic team in the league.

    I hope it's one of those "he needs to sit out for half a season" type of injury than a "degenerative condition may give out at any time" kind. The Rockets aren't winning anything this year so if he needs time to recover so be it. As long as it's not a long term deal.

    I can't believe they got Cam at 20. That is the craziest drop in this draft. Unbelievable. Now, if they can make a trade and pick up Rayan Rupert, I'll forgive them for the Amen pick at #4.

    Anyone know what was on that medical report?

    Our athleticism doesn't make sense. Sengun rn is that clown in soldiers-clown meme.

    Absolutely incredible value with this pick. It made it a no brainer selection. Amen and Cam!

    Flashback to last week, when Rafael Stone hatches his ingenious plot to spread a bogus story about many teams being concerned after hearing Whitmore has "medical issues."
