Whether he becomes a star or not, he’s going to be a good player for some team and make life easier for his teammates. Will be fun to watch with his passing, too.

I’m thinking he goes 7 to the Warriors at this point.



Don’t care 5 or 8…. Just draft him. This kid can ball.

I don't think a person's wingspan can be shorter than their height? I wouldn't take Giddey at 8, but I'm for getting him if we gain another pick that's in the top 15. I want Moody at 8, cause Kuminga and Bouknight will be gone.

Wingspans can absolutely be negative (less than height). I think Reddick was 3" inches less than height or -3
