really like jalen williams and his game. such a cool story.

was under-recruited coming out of HS. 5 months ago, barely anybody even knew who he was. most mocks had him as a mid 2nd round pick up until 2-3 months ago.

from a mid major conference.

but here he is, 12th pick in the draft. really cool story.

he's a really good player, too. 7'2" wingspan, that is going to be the longest wingspan in the NBA next season among guards.
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

Maybe Thunder will cut their players and Brad Stevens can bring Ty Jerome home to Boston on a minimum.

I don’t know about you guys but I spent January through April watching the Celtics dominate rather than NCAA. so I don’t know diddly about these players. So I’m just here for the company.

good pick for the hornets. he has a good argument for being a top 5 prospect in this draft. and obviously the hornets need a center.

this one was a no brainer.

not to mention the other top center left on the board (mark williams) is a Duke guy - you know MJ wasn't gonna pick him lol

i think Agbaji is a reach there. A few guys I would have taken ahead of him. I would have gone either Branham or Griffin.

Agbaji is a good player tho

Damn. Detroit is making serious moves.

Cade.

Ivey.

Duren.

Then if they get a top 5 pick next year - which is expected to be an even better draft at the top than this year. They could have an insanely good top 4 guys..
