Luol Deng was born in what is now South Sudan, but was part of the UK at the time. Not sure if he should qualify for Europe, Africa, or both. I welcome input

I’d have been willing to take over for him since he said he didn’t want to play. I don’t really feel like taking over a team with that second rounder already decided.

Edit: Why is Giannis listed under Africa? He was born in Greece.

Dr P has my options, unless someone takes over

Giannis was born in Greece.

Giannis Kirilenko and Kawhi together should be pretty nasty defensively. Maybe I could've waited on my American superstar a bit more but couldn't pass that

Rough seeing both Kawhi and Magic gone when I woke up

Happy to get Derrick White

A bit of an unknown quantity in drafts, but I figure Avdija is the kind of player who should get some shine with these restrictions.

durantbird · Post #175 » by **durantbird** » Wed Jul 2, 2025 4:41 pm

As an Israeli, glad to see Avdija get the respect.

Reminds me that in the prediction draft I consulted with Fade for the last pick who to choose - Avdija or Kuminga, and Fade was leaning the latter because higher upside for the year. Glad it was actually the other way in reality

To avoid any additional chaos, I want to make clear that Central American countries qualify as North America

You're right, Larry, I am sufficiently annoyed

Knew I should have taken Thabo before Duncan
