Peeps are blind. THT is a baller, always was. Some thought he was the steal of his draft, that he dropped only due to the injury.
NBA titles since the merger: LAL 11, CHI 6, SAS 5, BOS 5, GSW 4.

Want to know a funny fact? Even tho' he was drafted at #46, THT is making just a shed under Ja Morant this year.
9.6 mil for Morant, 9.5 mil for THT, good for third out of all the 2019 rookie class.

Sometimes it's better to fall in the 2nd round or go undrafted then being drafted late in the 1st.

My only question was whether there was interest from other teams in poaching him. I honestly felt he was an overpay considering we had his RFA rights which tends to scare away teams from signing. We similarly jumped the gun with Jordan Clarkson and overpaid him, when his market wasnt all that great.

THT has loads of potential, but i felt that overpaying RFAs (or letting them go, in Randle's case) is rather foolish and that our team hasnt done a good job in handling it lately.

I was very surprised that Vogel put THT in the starting 5. I guess it worked.
