2019 NBA Draft thread

Ok real talk - something is VERY wrong with Bol Bol.


It doesn't change the fact that there is something very wrong with the Kings draft department as well. Are there still leftovers from the PDA days? The Kings have blown through more picks in the last 10 years than you would think even possible but it's like a book where the pages keep turning and turning.
 
Really? Vlade is a moron for taking an unknown this deep in the draft? I think I'll just skip the rest of the comments and just update the list in the first post. Have a nice evening, guys.
 
From a tweet:

Justin James (G, @wyo_mbb): Ranked 19th amongst all D-1 players in scoring this season (22.1 PPG); first D-1 player to average 22.0 PPG, 8.0 RPG, 4.0 APG and 1.0 SPG since 1993 (Penny Hardaway)

It's a second round pick. Even the most amazing scouting departments in the league miss out on 95% of these picks.

Yea Bol Bol aside, this is a poor, poor pick. Obviously it's never a fact he's going to suck, but I have very little hope in this guy.

It’s one thing to miss on a pick, it’s another to take a flyer on someone no one else would have drafted at a position you don’t need!
 
And how has their first rounds been where the pick wasn't obvious?

Marvin looks like a stud. (Not an obvious pick because everyone and their mom thought we were going with Luka)
Harry looks like he could be an absolute steal at 20.
Willie is a rotation player.
