    KJ isn't in the league lol

    It's pretty scandalous that Stone hasn't drafted a single player outside of the top 17 in his tenure that has turned out valuable for us, despite 4 first round picks, a 2nd, and multiple failed undrafted FA's/2-way signings.

    Tate is literally the only guy who has been brought in under Stone who has contributed a bit, who wasn't even found my our FO but one of Silas' assistants in Will Weaver. And even then, Tate doesn't really have much of any value.

    Horrific asset management.

    I stand corrected about KJ. Didn't realize the Jazz had waived him.

    So after all the hand-wringing about dumping these guys, it turns out nobody else thought much of them either.

    Man, I had hope for TyTy. Thought he could be a decent rotation piece.

    Hitting on Alpi in the mid 1st offsets the other misses

    "Top 17" lol what a ridiculously dumb cutoff. Tari at 17 and Sengun at 16 were absurd values. Not to mention Whitmore fetched us a couple of SRPs, as did KJ. Perhaps you should learn a thing or two about the NBA draft hit rate.
