I love that pick for Orlando. What separates Paolo Banchero from the other talented bigs at the top of this class, in my opinion, is his ability to handle the basketball and create his own shot, especially at his size. I think that's an area of his game that he distinctly separates himself from Jabari Smith and Chet Holmgren as prospects.
Feels like Sacramento should have traded down there with Jaden Ivey available. Instead they take Keegan Murray who's an exceptional player in his own right. I don't exactly like his fit with the Kings, though. Domantas Sabonis and Murray operate in similar areas of the floor. Is Murray the three there? Or do you play him at the four and push Sabonis to the five? It'll be interesting to see how they manage those parts.

I messaged my friend who is a Kings fan. His response.
" Kings blew it again"
I didn't dig into these guys but it seemed like Ivy was the better player.
Benedict Mathurin to Indiana. He should pair very nicely with Tyrese Haliburton. Superb athlete with length. Smooth shot mechanics from the perimeter. Improving off the bounce. There's a lot to like there.
