Makes sense. I hadn't heard much 1st round buzz about the kid since the end of the NCAA Tournament.

Why spend next season in the G-League making thousands of dollars when you can make millions of dollars in Division 1? Plus:
Better competition.
Better coaching.
Better accommodations.

It really is a no lose option.

Why would Karter Knox even attempt to be in the draft?

Cam Reddish was a big disappointment for me. I thought it was obvious he didn't have the mindset to have success. I have no idea how our front office thought otherwise.

Who's that guy in this draft at SF/PF who also plays defense?
