Weird draft!!
This was a very weird draft. It felt like by the end of the night Boston was going to have made a trade with every single team. 😂
Then Trayce Jackson-Davis falling nearly to the very end of the draft really shocked me. I thought based on all of the projections, he was likely for the end of the first round.
I was also surprised that Sacramento didn't draft him. Undersized for a Center…yes. But he is a defensive beast, rebounds and blocks shots and is a rim protector. He is a 2 time all-american, set school records in Rebounding and Blocked shots and second all time in scoring.
Yes, oldest prospect in the draft. Undersized at the position. But he is NBA ready.
So it really surprised me that he went so low.
To me, a guy with that kind of resume is someone I take a hard look at.
I don't know if he had a bad combine or did something wrong with workouts with teams, but I am shocked he went that low.
This was a weird night. A lot of unexpected moves.
I know it isn't a just Sacramento comment…but I can't be the only one scratching my head after this draft and wondering who was smoking what during it. Lol.
Also…please no Draymond Green.
I would go for Kuzma, Grant, Oubre or bring back Barnes+ Lopez or Hart. Or Oubre + Lopez or Hart as I don't know if Oubre would get more than 15-18 million. If possible bring back Trey Lyles as well. Then go for minimum contract players at the end of the bench.
I’m not mad about the way tonight turned out at all. In your opinion does though does not drafting this year AND next year essentially make you feel any kind of way? Cheers Matt thanks for the coverage as always, great stuff.
When is Neemias Queta going to get some shine? I think he won like 2-3 G-league awards. One award was All-Defensive team…isn't that what we need? I mean I know I'm not a coach, but I feel that next season he should get some nba minutes. He deserves it in my opinion.
Draft night was cray but I like the finds in the later rounds sounds like we got some good bench players. Now just need a proven player to take us to the top. Also get howard man and keep Lin for size we may need him down the road good ish Matt I thought you were on vaction and see your post was like thank god my
'promo sm' 💞
WE TRADED RICHAUN!? He's been my favourite player since I started following Kings! First Haliburton and now Holmes? You're killing me! 😭
