    Suggs and keep letting Fultz improve and gain confidence, use Cole as a trade piece. BPA again at 8. Like mentioned, figure it out later. They have too much work to do to worry about fit.

    Dang Fults tore his acl thats right, yeah Suggs makes sense, he and Cole can play toghet imo

    Dad didn't want his son playing in Houston. Refused to work out for us, refused to interview with us.

    Eff 'em if my hometown team isn't good enough for them.

    Suggs didn't look too thrilled to go to Orlando. Was he hoping to drop to the Warriors at #7?

    Groundbreaking stuff “if OKC can’t find another Harden, Westbrook or KD in this draft they’ll have to do it next year”

    what?

    100%. I mean he would’ve had a chance to win a title as rookie. That’s huge for experience.

    Giddey is sneaky good.
    Just needs reps on his shot - 6'8 playmakers are pretty rare.


    Better numbers than Lamelo put up the year prior in the same league, so take from that what you will

    Things have gone wacky pretty quickly, love it. Hopefully means someone will drop to us whenever we pick again.

    Lawd. This is blowing up mocks everywhere. I'm curious to see how good this guy ends up.

    "smartest player in the draft" apparently.... Not sure if that is a big compliment, or damning him with faint praise....
