Don’t understand the Hawks thinking with that one. Unless they have a deal for Capela.

In 2020 absolutely he can play Center. Won't have any problems until he runs into a guy like Joel Embiid.

I mean, the center position is pretty obsolete. He has a great shooting profile for a big.

To be fair, I'm listening to a secondary, audio-only livestream and they're having a hard time keeping up.

But he can't play with Capela, so it matters.

I reject the idea of Capela being on that team, tbh. Okongwu will be nasty with Trae.

Espn loves to bring up the worst movement of every prospects life on draft day. good stuff guys.
They say an analytics man doesn't have a heart, but I ran the numbers and nothing can be further from the truth - Sam Hinkie probably

I haven't watched college basketball in well over a year. Who does everyone want for the Sixers?

Yeah I hate that stuff. I'm watching NBA TV, they are even farther behind on the coverage than ESPN is, but you don't get any of the the player interviews.

Was just thinking that. Like maybe the guy doesn’t want to talk about his dead brother on National tv.

To fall to 21? RJ Hampton

In the second: Xavier Tillman/Grant Riller

Return to Philadelphia 76ers
