Good pick DN. I was 50/50 on him and Dixon. I thought he might slide to me at 57. Small PG but he can play!

Randle-lite would be the easy comp. 41% from 3 on 7 attempts per game is really impressive with that volume. Landing spot is key obviously but some intriguing tools and worth the swing IMO

Just for clarification, if I have a UDFA I want to sign, can I make an offer right after the draft, or do I have to wait for free agency?
BaF Lakers:

Nikola Topic/Kasparas Jakucionis
VJ Edgecombe/Jrue Holiday
Shaedon Sharpe/Cedric Coward
Kyle Filipowski/Collin Murray-Boyles
Alex Sarr/Clint Capela

Bench: Malcolm Brogdon/Hansen Yang/Rocco Zikarsky/RJ Luis Jr.

I believe you can do it shortly after. There may be a dead period but if I remember from UDFAs I’ve picked up in previous years so can do it before FA

At 6:00 the draft is officially over. I will assign draft picks to any teams with skipped picks on the board at that time.

Any undrafted player will become an UFA, eligible to sign with any team subject to our FA rules. Teams can bid on a player who will sign after six hours without a better bid.
