It seems like you have only one pick left, but you still have categories 3 and 5 as being unfilled. Sorry to nitpick but just wondering


Tristan played for Lakers aswell in the 2023 playoffs

God bless Rob Pelinka

Important qualification: Tristan Thompson is generally included in the modern "42 players" list because he was part of the Lakers organization in 2023, but he never appeared in a game for the Lakers. The source specifically notes that he was with the Lakers for several weeks without playing.
So if your definition is "played in at least one actual NBA game for both teams," I would exclude Tristan Thompson, leaving 41 players.

He played in the playoffs several times. I'm afraid you blocked that out of your memory. :lol:

Since you were the last person to choose a Warrior - it feels like it might be in the spirit of competition to allow you to reselect. Just my two cents.
