NBA Draft Thread 2025

[scrabbarista]

I don’t see how the Pels make it tbh

Inside job from Dumars to get the team moved.

CLEAR AS DAY.

The Las Vegas Pelicans

I would personally buy out all of their gear and wear it 24/7.

Atlanta is low key stacked. Queen and Zinger additions. This team is so well balanced they could compete for a ECF

Queen going to the Pelicans.

Hawks lost their picks to San Antonio for Dejounte Murray. Got them back with New Orleans. Laughable.

Queen is a good fit for Atlanta. So this pick was just traded for a future first?

The #23 pick and a 2026 pick (the better out of New Orleans and Milwauee).

Dumars must really like Queen.

[TimberKat]

Dumars sh#%ing the bed right out of the gate. wtf is he doing?

What he's done this last week is fireable.

Unprotected 1st for a mid round pick is insane, just playing Russian roulette

Dude is selling off future firsts for the 12th seed.

EDIT: Holy sh#%, does Joe Dumars know that the Pels play in the West!? Is he making these moves thinking he is in the East?

It's Dumars. Even if you give him a #2 pick, he will draft another Darko

If Atlanta was bad next year (I expect them to be a playoff team), the Spurs had the right to swap with them. Now they have removed that issue. They have the Pelicans unprotected 2026 pick. That is almost assuredly going to be a lotto pick. I had them at 14 in the West pre-offseason and that's only if Utah tanks again. Only Sacramento has a worst short-term outlook than New Orleans. They're still relying on an injury prone Zion and Trey Murphy and Dejounte will miss 75% or more of next season due to his Achilles tear.

It's a lot of bad in the Big Easy right now. Just trade Herb Jones and complete the cycle of suck.

Pelicans and suns have the most incompetent FO. wtf?

[G R E Y]

Aaaaaaaw look at Sorber! SO MOVING!

Very happy for him. Great spot.

Big talent. Was my next choice after Bryant.

[MoneyTalks41890]

Alright I’m vibing with Sorber, our Hart replacement

[azcatz11]

Bryant to the spurs!!! What a steal!

I don't remember him much. What should I know?

Good size. Good shooter. Wasn’t asked to do anything but shoot in college. Ball skills are questionable. Projects well as a defender since he can really move his feet. A lot is unknown as far as potential imo

[Dan Z]

I think Noa is a fine pick (even though I wanted KJ), but Bulls should've done the trade with New Orleans (instead of Atlanta).

[G R E Y]

Alright I’m vibing with Sorber, our Hart replacement

Very talented big.

[Jcity08]

Another solid pick by the Spurs with Carter Bryant.

[___Rand___]

Sorber's that 3/4 quick fast tweener I said OKC needs? Is he fast?

[Chuck Everett]

Another defensive player for OKC.

[azcatz11]

Another defensive player for OKC.

That’s a good fit imo.

[scrabbarista]

Whoever OKC drafts will be amazing.

Beringer looks awesome to me and would fit. Is the pick in?

[ORLMagicGirl15]

You know, if I watched college ball, I would probably be excited for some of these prospects. They are truly just names right now. I can’t even pretend to be happy or envious of teams.

[TeamTragic]

Pelicans and suns have the most incompetent FO. wtf?

Ah yes getting the best center in the draft and trading for another young center.

TERRIBLE JUST TERRIBLE

[MoneyTalks41890]

Damn it I just teared up

[Froob]

Mark Williams could be outta the league by 2029 lol

Why do you say that? Injuries?

injuries yeah, lot to give up for a guy who hasn’t played a ton of basketball over the years

[Chuck Everett]

Sorber's that 3/4 quick fast tweener I said OKC needs? Is he fast?

He's more of a center. He has a huge wingspan though.
