    He was the difference in Baylor beating Auburn last year..almost singlehandedly.

    I knew Phoenix was going to trade the pick.

    Watch them trade #28 too :p

    Yeah the age thing… I mean I guess it hurts his profile but I’ll be damned if he’s not a ready made scorer. Who cares if he’s 23 man that’s silly he’s gonna be a hooper.

    Bronny James will either be the 42nd or 59th pick

    I wish their was a way I could place bets

    but I feel great about those two numbers

    There are a couple of really decent players still left over these last picks in a not so great draft IMO.

    Without any serious injuries to any one of them, this team will make some noise next season. Adams would be a pretty good screener to let Sheppard do his sniping. The bench will give the starters a run for their money.

    Biggest steals so far imo:

    Knecht to Lakers 17(wtf)
    Devin Carter to Kings 13
    Jared Mccain to Philly 16
    Yves Missi to New Orleans 21

    Headscratchers:
    Detroit taking Ron Holland no 5
    -I like Holland but Detroit is the worst fit. Nobody on that team can shoot. Holland is like a slightly worse version of Ausar lol.

    Spurs trading no 8 for 2030 swap and 2031 pick:
    Kinda weird to give away a top 10 pick just for a swap and a pick. Honestly if thats all it took Rox should have jumped in here I feel like.

    Big brain drafts:
    Tidjane Salaun at 6 - unexpected but TS is a Giannis type of prospect. Could end up a superstar if stars align.

    Zach Edey at 9 - He is better than Clingan imo. He will get chance to shine in Memphis.

    Biggest winner:
    Knecht- Knecht is a baller and one if the best shooters and athletes in the draft. He is what Lakers desperately need and the Lakers new coach played his exact style of play. Lebron has been dying for a sniper teammate. Crazy.

    Biggest loser:
    Spurs - imagine having 2 picks dreaming of Risacher and Sarr and walking away with just Castle lol. Castle cant shoot and doesnt fix any of the issues of the Spurs. Is he even better than Vassel at this point? I guess Wemby in for another bad season lol.

    They are more alike than not -- reason they're in the graphic in the first place.
