    I was obviously wrong on this one.

    Won't repeat what I've written previously, but I thought his top end potential was Kris Middleton (#39 pick, same height/wingspan) or Danny Green (#46 pick), while median outcome would be 7th/8th man rotational player. While he was touted as a 3/D type player, he wasn't good at either at the NBA level.

    Wow he lost

    I can't believe it.

    This must be how @KingCheetah felt watching Wilder go down.

    I remember years where I would have taken Marcus Fizer and Danny Fortson at number 1, so I'm not judging! Even a lot of scouts and General Managers get it wrong more than they get it right!
