  1. And by sources do you mean an ESPN push notification just now?

    Love this pick for us

    Hopefully he’ll be able to contribute right away

  3. Bobby_Savoy

    Wanted McCain or Knecht but De Silva isn’t a bad pick.

  4. jackloganoliver

    Makes sense going for an older guy who can just come in and contribute.

  5. we need schroeder to finish the all german lineup

  6. KamikazeeDolphin

    Watching his highlights right now for the first time.

    Aight I’ve seen enough, let’s get him to the All Star game. Buying his jersey rn

    Another player that knows German. What a crew their putting together. LFG Magic!!!

  8. WAZZZZZZZAP

    40% shooter 6’8 and defends well? Lets get it

  9. SweetFranz

    Was the guy I wanted the most throughout the entire process. Should fit in perfectly as our first or second wing off the bench.

    Great pick, great value. Draft fell nicely for us.

  12. rockinwithmycockout

    This is a great pick. I’ve seen him play a few times, and he was annoying to play against.

    Good shooter – both FT and 3. Tall. Can play good defense. Makes good decisions. Is unselfish.

    I didn’t know he was German tho. Wagner bros gotta love that lol.

  13. u-and-whose-army

    I like the pick. Another German boy. He seems pretty NBA ready. Looks like him and Franz know each other already.

    Why does Orlando get NO airtime? Went straight to commercial. No one talked about our pick? How Orlando will do this year. How Di Silva will play with the Wagner Brothers(Germany)/ Paoul…nothing! NBA has no respect for Orlando.

    Real nice role player we can play at reserve 3 off the bench. Glue guy, he’s not going to take over a game but he will make the right passes and knock down open 3s.

  16. ChaosZeroX

    I like it to be honest. Germans taking over Otown lol

  17. External-Specific-14

    Everyone talking bout how he is german, ok..

    But the brother is also half Brazilian.

    His Brazilian father was a former boxer who settled down in germany.

    Really good pick. Only thing better would have been McCain if he fell.

    I had Kolek ahead of Tristan but only because of fit. Honestly, I can’t argue that he was not the best pick at the spot. No where near the highest ceiling of who’s on the board but definitely has the highest floor. Just a really smart, connector guy who doesn’t make a lot of mistakes.

    The Jaime Jaquez pick of this draft. Older, ready to go player. In a draft full of meh, this is a solid move. Figuring we needed to replace Ingles and Jett is still a question mark, this was the right move. I personally wanted Ware but since he was no longer on the board I think this works.

    please jettison Chuma Okeke into sun now, thanks

    Great pick up, in the pressers Weltman emphasized they would not sacrifice their North Star when it came to additions to the team and Da Silva fits the mold.

    While im hoping he gets to be apart of the rotation this season, he’ll have to earn that opportunity.
