Not playing tonight. Out with knee soreness.

Except he's not. At all. Not sure if there's one major mock draft/big board with him at number 1 right now.

Who cares about Big Board, IMO he's better than Fultz.

Uh oh. Hopefully that heals up quick in case we get the 2nd pick!

Great game!

UCLA wins. Ball with 15 and 11 assists and 10 rebounds. I need to double check his assists totals.

he's a pretty rough listen for 2 1/2 hours. but then he drops 3 or 4 marvelous revelations to make it worth it

Doesn't he only talk about the actual game for maybe half an hour? Least an hour about the Grateful Dead.

Nice to see KG every Thursday even if it's just him joking around blunted for a few minutes every week.

Bed time as it's super late. Will probably dream of Lonzo to Jaylen fast breaks. See ya, fellas.

Disagree. Fultz is the clear superior offensive talent and has the more impressive physical tools (size and length, combined with athleticism) for me.

I would go with Ball. He steps up down the stretch. Fultz kind of disappears in the few close games I've seen him play in.

I realize you're just trying to **** on Fultz here, but regardless knee soreness in February will have little to no impact on his standing in June.

Ball is just as good but he plays with more fire and all around just looks better than Fultz.

Tatum looked real good for Duke tonight. Nice 4th pick for someone who drafts after us (fingers crossed).

yeah he loses focus from the game and says some pretty odd off topic $hit. I think it's cool if it's not your team but if you're into the game and he's trotting down the right field line it gets kinda annoying. or at least thats what I remember when he called those celtic games
