No, the Charlotte thing would be for him to go 28th if they planned to get him

Miami does this better then almost every team with picks outside of the lottery. Jaku is gonna be a good get for Miami no doubt.

They got a better player than us at pick 20 then we did at pick #4 smh

We are so unserious.

Ainge drafting Ace like any smart GM would do. This franchise let Ace scare them off. Ainge said F that you will play here you're the best player available.

A vet GM vs a rookie GM was on display tonight.

Do we take an undersized combo guard at 29? Jase Richardson seems like the one.

Look I of course have zero clue how these players respective careers will turn out. But I guarantee you all 30 teams had Kon higher than Jaku on their big boards

Hey maybe it will be better to have 3 late pick rookies playing 35 minutes in January than 3 random G leaguers playing 35 minutes in January
