I have done no research for this one so far, but I think my pick should be pretty solid position wise

I thought Mr Ringer isn't available on Saturdays/Shabbat, extending the clock in two additional hours

If he's unavailable all day will the two hours matter?

Yes, I believe so, because Shabbat is ending in a few minutes. I started the draft right when it started

Just for general knowledge: today in Israel (Shabbat, Fri–Sat, Sep 19–20, 2025) started at 18:23 IDT (which is 11:23 AM EDT) and ended at 19:16 IDT (which is 12:16 PM EDT). Because in Judaism a ‘day’ runs from sunset to nightfall.

I thought about taking him with #3 since I’ve never been successful with Shaq but ultimately went with Shaq. Figured he’d be the next pick or two

Really considered Manu. By far the best All Star turned Bench Guy

Yeah, i got lucky there

Not sure about Manu that early with a limited number of MVP-ish players. There are gonna be some pretty crazy 1-2s and I'm not feeling real good about my position.

I considered Luka actually. Felt that a duo of Luka/Lebron noted mainly for playoff failure probably wasn’t the way to go, even though I think they proved it COULD work with the right pieces around it (which the Laker do not have).

I’ll add that pairing Magic with Luka might be the most Ness thing I’ve seen in these games.
