Their last year on college basketball reference should be right almost all the time.

I think ideally we would let everyone who picked before have an opportunity to say whether or not they would have changed their pick (in which case you would get Covington and Dr Positivity would get a chance to change his pick and so on) But logistically it might be easier to allow both of you guys to have Covington. I'm all in favor of a swift and reasonable resolution - whatever that might be.

I won't pick until the AM as I'll still be on the clock, so that the commish can rule when he wakes up.

Larry can have DFS and I’ll take Covington and Wiggins. Hayward would then be available if anyone wants to change their pick to him.

More like if I remembered Wiggins before 2 hours ago I’d have taken him before Covington or DFS so this just saves me from hoping he falls next round and so can I take my 3rd straight 3/D wing and pretend it was a master plan all along :lol:

I think this pool and restrictions were perfect. It actually took planning and forethought to build a cohesive starting lineup with appropriate players at each spot. Other drafts do require this to an extent but not as much.

I had to pass on Bridges in favor of KCP to ensure I could secure the point guard I wanted later. I picked Siakam over other players both for fit and because he didn’t overlap in draft with the wings and ball handlers I wanted in later rounds.

This is how these games should be.

Agreed, and I think ten teams was the perfect amount as well. This has been a fun game.
