That rotation scares me, when Layman is your best wing shooter, then you know you are done for.


I feeel like one of Okogie/Culver are being traded later.


Agreed

I hope its Okogie, even if I like him for sure. But Culver is higher tier talent then him, one we wouldn't give up on too quick. I'm sensing he will breakout this coming season.

Holy **** Pistons took stewart. Soo many good choices still left. Terry, maxey,saddiq Bey, achiuwa and Hampton all being at 17 shocks me.

Brutal night so far if you are a Wolves fan! We still can't shoot the ball to save our lives.... We took a maybe at 1 that doesn't love the sport and we traded 17 for a pg and 2 late picks. I hope Rosas has something up his sleeve or his two drafts in charge have been very underwhelming!

I predicted it. OKC takes Poku with the pick they got from us.
