Interesting pick!! Did not see that coming.

CMB was by far the best defensive player available, so if he can develop a shot he'll be a monster.

Wonder how Mogbo is feeling

Let’s hope we get another pick.

At this point it looks like Scottie Barnes is going to be our future starting center

Do we have a shooting coach?

Who needs height when you can.....not shoot?

He seems a bit surprised and probably not that happy expecting to play behind Scottie. I do think he’s small ball 5 though for the time being that’s gonna be able to handle and attack and set proper screens.

He’s playing behind two others who are basically the same player as him (Scottie and Mogbo).

Someone is gonna get traded…

Honestly Im just happy we didnt draft Maluach

Love it. So glad we didn’t pick Queen or Khaman.

Too many red flags. Production over “theoretical upside”. CMB the model citizen of production.

Now let’s get another pick and grab Carter, Yange, or Asa!

Unathletic and unskilled. Thank god we dodged that

I have a feeling we are trading him for our African center and a player

Post #1077 » by **Reeko** » Thu Jun 26, 2025 1:18 am

Pretty stunned they passed on a big though.

NoBias · Post #1078 » by **NoBias** » Thu Jun 26, 2025 1:18 am

Yeah!!!! More 6’7 forwards who can’t shoot! It worked the first time

He’ll change his mind when he sees all the baddies in Toronto Caribana long weekend.

I don't think his GF would like that. Lol

This a bad pick, not player…pick.

The fit just doesn’t make sense. We better have a trade back in for another player.
