Read on Twitter


gentlemen, i'm admittingly an elder statesmen here and i have no qualms with that. That being said. Can someone assist me with what in the cocaine 80s is Jalen Green wearing tonight?

Edit: i'd be hypocritical for not calling out my guy Scottie Barnes for raiding Ron Isley's suit closet.

I need answers!!!

It’s very possible going with the sure thing comes back to haunt the Pistons, but I’m comfortable with the sure thing in this case. Definitely expecting big things from Green and Mobley as well.

Also, Green’s outfit is fire. Like forest fire or theater on fire. Yikes.

Cavs draft the #1 player with the #3 pick. What a steal. Biggest scouting failure in years.

gotta be some PG-13 developmental hope to take Ziare that high. Young enough team to have the patience for it though we'll see how it shapes up.

Why Williams over Todd though? Especially at their relative positions in the draft.

i would have went Moody but again, could be a hopeful thing. Ziare has high upside but you're banking pretty heavy on him hitting it. Im thinking with the Grizz maybe they're on the hunt for additional star power talent next to Ja. you would know better than I, but do you think there's a clear star level number two currently on the roster?
