Banking on a Jaden Hardy-esque rebound from Nick Jr. after a run of horrible luck in Arkansas.

Damnit. They got Strawther.

Am I just getting older or did that first round take way longer than usual?

Kobe Brown goes to the Clippers. Love this guy. He will be a key career rotation player off the bench at the 4. Wish we’d deal Rozier and a late second rounder for him.
I continue to wait...and hope...for the return to Hornet's glory.

Feels like an overpay for 31 but from what I'm seeing NNaji seems like a worthy gamble

I actually like this one too. The guy started a game and put up ridiculous numbers (can’t remember off the top of my head), but he can be Center number three to develop. Super young and was buried on a stacked team.

Exactly my take. "What is the easiest way to get rid of some of these picks?"

Mitch gets fleeced again on draft value (#31 for #34 and #39) but I don't mind the idea of stashing Nnaji overseas to get more experience. We will probably struggle to roster any more rookies than Miller and Smith Jr with Miles coming back and PJ and DSJ being resigned.

They finally take my guy Colby Jones and they’re trading him to the Celtics for a future 3rd string Center? Celtics already have Malcolm Brogdon and Derrick White, just ugh

I'm happy with the draft so far. Miller was my guy, the other two seem like high-upside picks as well.
