Woof

WOW!

[SOUL]

I was just thinking how the Knicks have the least roster turnover in this league

[j4remi]

My starting line-up is set, my bench is young, and I've still got some wiggle room with the cap.

And thats preciely when the BAF gods remind you how powerful they are

I like the Hali-Murray dynamic

[Manhattan Project]

I was all set to go into the season with the lineup I had, but Booker to me is one of the elite players in the game so I had to make a run at him. What a wild offseason. We're definitely in the market for a backup big man and point guard with guys like Allen, Barnes and KCP to use a bait.

With the #52 pick in the 2024 BAF draft, the Washington Wizards select:

Spoiler:

Juan Nunez G 20 Ratiopharm Ulm (Germany) 6-4 International Spain

The Washington Wizards are now on the clock.

Wow seems like just yesterday we had the Booker bidding war. Way to be bold and pivot.

Hard to pass up that cap space coming off your books next season too and still have bookers bird rights. Looking forward to see how you execute everything

Good job sending him out west lol

Fun with late draft picks part 2: International Edition
This kid Nunez has crazy vision and passing ability in a 6'4 package that made him worth throwing a late pick at as a draft and stash candidate.

Juan Nunez is a really fun player

Like, his ceiling is Pablo Prigioni, a guy who can come off the bench for a few minutes a game and make a few really nice passes, but still

Would not mind the Knicks buying a 2nd to draft and stash him. 38 might be a bit too high.

Tristen Newton G 23 Connecticut 6-3 Senior USA

I had to do it lol

4 UConn guys in the draft, I needed to come away with at least one.

[bishnykfan]

Philadelphia, Dallas, Denver and Washington all have skipped picks on the board. I will wait until 8PM when the draft starts and then assign picks to those teams if they do not submit picks in the next hour+.

I was looking hard at him with my pick. Not elite at anything but does a little of everything and knows how to win
