I know it pained the Magic drafting from MSU, but this is one of my favorite picks in the draft

I don't like Jase Richardson because I didn't think he had a position he could guard, he's so small, however, if he can make actually make shots, then Orlando isn't the worst place to be because they are so great defensively and their forwards are playmakers.

Kinda funny to replace Cole Anthony with another kid of an nba player.

I don't love Jase but I can't deny his great efficiency. Love the pick with Clayton off the board.

Am I wrong or does Magic have a lot of guards. Interesting pick though, dont know much about Jase but he looks solid.

Except this one was efficient in college. Cole has always been inefficient.

If the Bucks and Pels end up 15-20, it’s inconsequential tbh. But if Giannis is moved or Zion misses 3/4 of the season…. :(

Getting drafted and having them play your dad's highlights is dirty work.

Suggs and AB are our "PG"
Bane and Jett are probably the SGs

The rest are F

Wolves had the 17th pick like an hour and half ago. This going in snails pace.


But here's the kicker, stupid moi been waiting for Wolves 31st picks since then, and it's 05:00 morning here in Sweden. Now I just realized the 31st pick won't be shown tonight because they changed 2nd round to tommorrow night? *doh* :noway: :nonono: :banghead:

Bane, Suggs, Anthony Black, Jett Howard and now Jase Richardson. I mean, Orlando's weakness is the backcourt.

What is Sacramento trading to OKC? Probably an unprotected pick in 2033 or some ****.

Edit: The pick is San Antonio's 2027 first rounder (protected 1-16). If it doesn't convey, it turns into two 2nd rounders.

You think a team of Zion, Fears, Queen, Missi, Poole, Trey Murphy and Herb Jones will be competitive in the tough West?

Maybe they're a surprise, but I doubt it when you consider Zion's health and counting on two rookies. I'm also not big on Poole.
