Can't ask for anything more with pick 58.

We already have Wayne and Malcolm here to fill that role at SG. We need to go big.


Yeah plus I heard Buford didn't test or shoot very well at his work outs, could go undrafted.

If we keep the pick, we will either go international or with someone that has a Adelman skillset, most likely a big.

If not Sims, keep an eye on Garrett Stutz, who I believe was here for a workout yesterday.

Does anyone know what time the draft starts exactly, not just the coverage? I don't want to get up early and have to listen to an hour of pre-draft talk.

I'm kinda thinking it might be Robbie Hummel at 58. Don't know why. Haven't heard any link to the Wolves with him. After being a college player for 6 years, he probably won't exactly be a rookie coming into the NBA. If he can stay healthy, I think he hs the potential to be a 5-10 year solid NBA bench player.

There will probably be someone projected in the top 30-35 that slips to 58. We might try and go the value route.

Either that or Darko Planinic. Out with the old Darko - in with the new.

His knees are going to end up like Kyle Broflovski's when he played that basketball game after getting the operation to turn black.
