GG Jackson fell off the charts. Must of looked bad in his workouts as he did in his game tapes.

It is what it is.

At least the kid looks tough and likeable.

I think we'll regret this pick once some of the other players picked after him get their footing in league in a year or 2.

He might be better then some for the first year, being 3-4 years older.


We went with lowest ceiling safest pick possible

Good answer. Learn to make the game slower, that's the diff between vets and rooks. Don't panic & stay under control.

I trust a 4 year college sample more then 1 workout, but we'll see.

If he somehow magically became a good shooter in the last month - he'll be less horrible of a pick.

Wonder who's gonna take Jordan Miller from the U. Admittedly didn't watch much of his games, but he looked great in the tourney against Houston lol... Like a better RJ Barrett.

Wonder how good Cam Whitmore is going to be and if the decision to pass on him will bite us in the ass
