Are we sure? Lol.

Like the pick here for Boston. Good player. I would have been fine with him at 35 or 31.

Who knows.

The Celtics drafted NoHo Hank from Barry.

His aforementioned wingspan looks unreal. He also looks like Gollum with less hair.

Brad really hates short people. I bet he hated those Edwards and waters picks

From NBA DraftRoom.
Jordan Walsh is one of the most explosive athletes in the country with big time bounce, length and defensive ability. He has all the tools and the upside but will need some time to develop before having a big impact at the NBA level.

His calling card is his defense. Walsh is a lock-down defender on the perimeter who plays an aggressive style and really gets after the ball. He can guard a multitude of positions and gives great effort on the defensive end of the court. He’s like a one man trap with his excessive length and active hands.

He’s got ideal size for a wing and all the tools to be special on both ends of the court.

His offensive game is a work in progress but he shows good instincts for moving the ball, making plays for teammates and is a decent off-the-ball mover.

Has the makings of jumper but will need to put in the work to get consistent shooting the ball.

I wanted Prosper and Nnaji — can get sufficient enthusiasm for this guy and four future seconds instead.

Looks like an absolute menace defensively with an interesting mix and all-around game. Raw as hell, but I like Brad taking big cuts at second rounders, because hopefully one or more of them can pan out.

So, is he really 6'6"? He's listed at 6'4" in NBA.com.

EDIT: My mistake. I was looking at Colby Jones who is actually 6'4". They have Walsh at 6'7" in the draft page.

Yeah, you don't want him dribbling much any time soon, but cutting, making quick passes, etc should hopefully be in his wheelhouse. Then just shoot halfway almost decent enough to play more than Thybulle is the goal, lol.

Yeah, he measured 6' 5.75'' without shoes at the combine. Almost 6'7" with shoes.
