Franz is a strange one, shifty as hell like a jumbo Ginobili but his form is cooked from three. I think he can regain it but he needs to find it again to get to that All-Star level, it's all that's missing really.

Risacher will be fun to watch - I'm considering who these guys are being drafted to as much as I personally like them or not. Does me no good if a guy I like is going to rot somewhere and not get PT or is surrounded by bad coaches.

There are quite a few players I really like them as players but pretty terrified on their potential landing spots. There are a few guys who should thrive in almost any setting and quite a few guys who are very dependent on their landing spot

Love the mentality. I’ll be torn by taking a high floor guy and a swing for the fences. By the looks of the GIF I wouldn’t be shocked if the one I’m looking at goes to Memphis
