On the bright side, KOC has AJ ranked as the 54th best prospect in his draft guide.

31 places off from a draftnik’s guide might be the biggest gaps ever.

KOC's favorite prospect was Killian Hayes.

Obviously don't know anything about this dude. But if you're not picking for immediate need and hope for a contributor now (like Shannon type) I probably roll the dice on the USC guard and hope you get lucky and he turns into a Maxey type.

Guess its fair to note this might be a pick for someone else and a trade is coming

Kind of amazing that you can find highlights on a guy who averaged 2.8 pts. on 36.7% shooting.

So I guess John Hammond is still making the picks.

At least he’s young and does flash some talent. We do think we can outsmart everyone with these weirdo picks all the time

I know nothing, so I feel okay rooting for him. Welcome to Milwaukee!

this guy absolutely has to be on the move to a team with no chance at the playoffs. that's the only way this makes sense.

Hammond drafted Giannis, Horst drafted DJ Wilson.

I mean this looks like an awful pick. Horst has always straight up sucked at drafting/scouting and this looks no different. For a guy who has made some huge trades, he might have the biggest disparity between how good his trades are and how bad his drafting is. This reminds me of the DJ Wilson pick where it was obvious that it was a bad pick because the dude can't play.

Like if we wanted to pick a guard with theoretical upside who can't play because he sucks we should have just taken Bronny and I'm about as low on Bronny as anyone out there.
