Very disappointing, because he's the best fit imo and the guy many of us have been calling for all season

I hope he's there for us if we want him


Bufkin made it public he wants us to draft him, it was "hush hush" who wanted him and we're one of maybe 2 places that can confirm not only having a workout but multiple with him.

At this point, I'll actually be stunned if we don't draft Bufkin.


Im totally okay with Bufkin, the fit is there, there's just others I like more

I like the pairing of Amen and Jalen.

They just need to get rid of KPJ or tell him hes gotta be okay with coming off the bench lol.

Scoot+Sharpe could be an exciting beginning to a rebuild, no?

I don't see Pistons passing on Ausar. I hope Walker lands with the Pacers though.
