Eh. Beefy calfs, muscular frame, bit robotic.

Pokuševski is fluid, but my God guy has anorexia. Borderline creepy how skinny he is.

Is this the same Markovic that has a profile of 6'11 and 190lbs?

How could he have muscular frame and beefy calfs with that profile?

Can draft 16 and 25
And get rid of 2 of (Cojo, Harris, Houstan, and Queen)
The Magic talent machine continues

TQ and Corey seem like fine low cost end of bench players.

Whatever happens, make sure our DEN pick isn't used for a SG. lol

I like the draft and developing players, this is the year we need to trade out of the first round for a PG or scoring guard. We should take a second rounder and buy a second one, but we have to make progress with the roster and trading out might be the best way

We have 2 second round picks. Ours and Boston's.

Weltman did mention we are going to use 2nd picks to fill out roster in the future to manage new CBA.

I like 5 Star recruit Drake Powell from North Carolina University! 6'6" Shooting Guard who played out of position in college. A lot of upside

I really think the magic maybe trading one or both these first round on picks.

basketballRob · Post #994 » by **basketballRob** » Fri May 2, 2025 6:27 pm

It's time to get accustomed to taking second rounders for the next few years. Maybe we can find an Austin Reaves or Jokic.

If we would've been keeping our 2nd rounders we might've been further along but I guess now would be another chance to start lol

I think our FO views our 2nd rpunders as bench fodder to fill out the salary. Not as future core pieces.

Any EURO posters here can give me some background about this French team ASVEL in the Euroleague? Good team? Good tournament? OR the opposite?

They have this big bruiser that is playing in the NCAA/ACC next season and he plays and looks like a monster in his highlights.

Anyone thinking that picks 16 and 25 will be difference makers, especially next year... I present to you:

Agreed. lol

TDS despite being a senior rookie, still needs to be developed. Too slow to be a SF, too weak to be a PF.

Then again, he did fill in nicely when we had all those injuries. But when we were fighting for the POs, he got rightly benched.

What should we do?
