• There are only 58 picks in the 2023 Draft because the Philadelphia 76ers and Chicago Bulls each forfeited a second-round pick due to violating rules governing free agency discussions.

6'7", 225 lbs, a 6'10" wingspan. He'd be a small ball 4. He's more of a 3.

Still, wouldn't hate the pick if we took Jaquez but wouldn't be my first preference.

Jordan is a complete moron!
How they ever let him make the Pick?
Scoot has a chance to be a Top 5 PG.

Has there ever been a set of twins drafted relatively close to each other that far exceeded the other one?

Amen is a good pick for Houston. They have themselves a franchise PG who is probably the best passer in the draft (they needed passing) and he's a really good defender (they needed defense).

Good pick.

I’m in Boston actively boarding a flight as Portland is picking and see the “proposed trade” crap on the screen. This suspense is awful

I'm not sure. There's been nearly a dozen sets of twins, overall though.
Amen is clearly more advanced than Ausar.

Good pick.

Those two (Thompson twins) are gonna put the Overtime Elite on the map.
