Teams are concerned because he broke the same leg twice in high school.


One of the lottery prospects was rumored to have a really bad workout where he couldn’t keep up, had bad attitude, kinda quit in the middle and then was “caught” vaping. Maybe it’s Cam but at 16 you freakin take him anyway.

Not able to finish workout with Jazz? or some other team?

Don’t think it was with the Jazz, if you’re thinking about the altitude.

What I read is that it was a top 10 player. Wouldn’t be GG.

I am at a loss of words. Cam must have a really, really bad attitude.

I watched the introduction of the players that were in the green room. Cam couldn't look at the camera. He kept looking at the floor. It was awkward.

Assuming it’s him, which I hate to do, at some point talent overcomes attitude. Just look at Zion who went #1. I think a lot of teams are going to regret passing on him. Some team will get a steal.

Rockets going to get Cam. If he does have a bad attitude, this could be worst team for him.

I would have bet $100 that Danny would have made a couple deals today.

Me too, but the draft went the Jazz’s way and he didn’t need to do any trades. We’re having a pretty good draft but I can’t help but feel like we missed a big opportunity. I don’t think either Hendricks or George have star potential and we passed on a guy who does, twice.

Hendricks ceiling is PG so there is some hope.

I love Hendricks, but I realize he isn't an Alpha and he probably isn't a future superstar but I think he will be a solid player for 10 years. It may take a year or two for him to have much impact. Who do we want at #28? I kinda wanted Podziemski. I gotta say Dariq, Andre Jackson, or Leonard Miller. Maybe Stawther or Ben Sheppard.

28 is up for play apparently. I bet we trade it for a future 1st.
