It's the 39th pick, you can't really get worked up over it. Basically a lottery ticket and if nothing else it's better than the guy we traded to get this pick in Jalen McDaniels.


I forgot this was the pick we got in the McDaniels trade.

And we still got that Lakers 2nd to look forward to.

There's a chance all 3 players become better than McDaniels. Hilarious marginal trade move if it ends up happening.


Masai with draft picks is gold. Crazy that he was trading them away and/or not going after them the last couple years.

With rumors of us wanting to trade IQ/RJ now, I think it may have been preferable just to get more picks. Helps with salary cap issues too.

Would have liked Markovic even though he projects poorly defensively. A good shooting 6'11 guy off the dribble is a nice archetype.

He's basing his decision on whoever drafts the next Jokic.

These are like Pokémon. Got to draft ‘em all.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

I haven't seen Markovic play, but im loving this direction were taking.

A team full of tough defenders. They're following the Houston model, and I'm here for it. If Scottie takes that leap, oh man this team is going to be a contender.

That's true but not a long term player. We just needed anybody at the time to suite up for us.

Raynaud was right there. I can't believe we didn't take that swing.

Sam has connects in the Raps FO.

His last second mock right before the draft yesterday had the Raps taking CMB.

Wonder who Martin destroyed? :lol:
