Vecenie nailed AJ Johnson to the Bucks at 23.

Wow...these picks. I wouldn't be surprised if I get drafted next.
I mean, they do already have DeAndre Ayton and Robert Williams II as big men so it depends on how he performs, which could ultimately lead to Ayton or Williams getting moved.
I can see now why Hawkins came back to college.
Knicks and Wizards trading picks with each other. #24 for #26.
I see TSJ going to Minnesota. Better fit over new york
6-4 and 167 lbs. playing shooting guard in the NBA??? Can Milwaukee really wait for him to contribute to a "win now" roster? There defense sucked last year as it was and playing 4 on 5 certainly is not going to help.
Thibs hates playing rookies and with OG signing an extension and trading for Briges dont see it being one of these next two picks

Griz and Illini fan here…don’t totally disagree but we’ll see. They needed a Center…wanted Clingan but he fell to Portland. Detroit and Charlotte didn’t budge at #5 and 6.
GM Zach Kleiman has done a great job. Some misses but nailed moving up for both Brandon Clarke and Des Bane. GG Jackson at #45 last year too (he’d be lottery this year had he not reclassed). We’ve come a long long way since drafting Hasheem Thabeet at #2 back in 2009
Four of the last six picks are SG. You can't tell me those guys have more NBA potential than Shannon.

Well, that journey has been in a perfect circleWe’ve come a long long way since drafting Hasheem Thabeet at #2 back in 2009
Yeah, feels like a super weird choice there.
That's why I'm pretty impressed Vecenie nailed it. He has good sources or is good at interpreting what info he does get, or both.

I will never understand the NBA draft mentality.

If college stars were dominating the league, they would be getting selected accordingly.
In the case of this draft, it's akin to buying scratch offs and praying
Certainly "enough wing depth" (if that's ever considering much of a thing) wasn't a factor at 25...
Did I miss it…I swear not a single analyst on this ESPN panel has even mentioned TSJ name!

Do you think AJ Johnson or Pacome Dadiet will ever dominate the league?
Well it's a good thing you're not an NBA scout then I guess.
He's not really one of the top prospects available that they'd be talking about. The way it's looking now, I wouldn't be surprised if he drops into the 2nd round.
