Da Silva doesn’t exist I guess.

I don't see it with him. Seems like a lot to give up to get this guy...

admittedly, I don't know a lot about him... but stats don't look great, I don't see any bounce, and while he has good size, he seems slow for a wing.

Penda was the highest rated player available on Sam Vecenie's board as well.

Who paid you?

I wanted Koby Brea, Maxime Raynaud or Ryan Kalkbrenner

I hope Noah Penda pans out as he was not on my board.

I dont know much about Penda, but I see the fit. More important is that we wanted a guy and went and got him. Sounds like a potential JI replacement if he works out.

Kalkbrenner was the play here…… highly disappointed

I think I get why we always trade out the 2nd round.

A bunch of people who don't scout prospects angry about a pick. Same reaction after our Franz pick lol

RookieStar · Post #1194 » by **RookieStar** » Fri Jun 27, 2025 12:32 am

We must really want to piss off Franz...

We drafted a MSU guy
We drafted a French dude

Lol jk

Penda is a lot like Boris Diaw.

A SF/PF type who can dribble, pass and defend.

Gotta develop the jumper, but he's very skilled. High BBIQ.

It's honestly just a second round pick, might work out, might not, but he won't see the floor at all this season unless there's injuries.

I was wrong on Franz but I've been right on others.

You could say this about reacting to literally any pick good or bad.

Draftnet compares him to Kenrich Williams.
