We got the goofiest looking Zeller of the three brothers............which is pretty amazing considering how goofy the other two look.

Noel and Ben on the board, and Cho and company plays it safe. This is one of the many reasons Charlotte continues to me mocked around the league. I hope it works out for you guys, and you have a good fanbase but your ownership and management is definitely testing the fans patience.

I hate this unless Ben McLemore legally changed his name to Tyler Zeller...

Good with Biombo. He's going to be ready for the NBA maturity wise. I'm not thrilled with the pick, but I'm OK with it.
My picks:
2020 Draft (3rd pick) - Tyrese Haliburton, Devin Vassell, or Onyeka Okongwu
2021 Draft (11th pick) - Moses Moody

i wonder how long we have to wait to determine that zeller is charlotte's pick and not another team in a trade. 12? 14?

Like the pick. For me, it was between McElmore or Zeller. Len is a walking bust and Noel's knee is too risky for me.

Zeller and Biyombo should work well off eachother down-low.

Zeller reminds me of Hansbrough. I get why Cho has interest in him, but passing up on Len and Noel...? Should be interesting to see where this leads in the near future.

With Len, Noel and McLemore all on the board, Zeller was a horrible pick. Could have had him at #7. No way is he worth #4. Bad pick. I am officially OFF the Cho bandwagon!

I'm not totally mad at this pick but I'm very disappointed. Zeller is a good pickup because he is easily our best big and add offense to our frontcourt. I'm just surprised we passed on Noel who was unexpectantly gift wrapped to us. The media will tear us apart.
