Should be a fairly interesting night seeing where some of these guys fall vs who stayed in school for the NIL. A ton of talent in this draft outside of #1. I can't wait to watch Wemby play in the NBA, like everyone else I've seen nonstop highlights, but admittedly just looked up his stats and for all the hype of him being the best prospect ever - 20/10/2 isn't earth shattering. He's so big and skilled it's hard to imagine him not finding success - but as always the media hype around him has been CRAZY. For a rail thin center from Europe, who shoots 28% from 3 and doesn't play in the paint. The NBA 3-point line is also two feetish further back than Europe, so how far can he *actually* stretch the floor? He's the unquestionable #1 - only FOUR TOTAL CENTERS are projected to be drafted, Lively in the 1st, and two others in the 2nd - but I dont think Miller / Scoot are a far away #2/#3. Their talent is also immense. Charlotte and Portland are still in a decent spot. I love Scoot's game. If he was like 6'6" it might be a question of who goes #1. Maybe.

With no drama at the top, really, I'm just interested to see if any MAC players get drafted. For anyone that saw Wemby's first pitch in Yankee stadium, it's clear he should stick with hoops! The kid is a freak, though. He's going to be fun to watch, just hope he can stay healthy.

Bates is definitely one of them. Dariq Whitehead from Duke could also be good with a little seasoning.

With Jaren Jackson and Marcus Smart, the Grizz will have a lights out defensive team if Steven Adams and Brandon Clarke get over their injuries. They might still win a bunch of games while Ja is sidelined with his double-secret-probation. I'm interested to see what the odds are on Memphis for next season. Might be worth a 10-spot at the sports book desk.

I think only the Lakers and Miami out of those in the Final 8 of this year scored a 1st round draft pick. Golden State with CP3 might be the blockbuster of the summer.

Tough to say, but probably depends on what you think about Beal's fit in Phoenix and how they round out the rest of that roster.

Why not both? I honestly thought he was putting up Dwight Howard China numbers. Not shooting 28%.
