Re: Draft prospects - Who do we want?
I like seeing how guys react to wins, but more importantly losses, after the game is over. So, I went and found some interviews for the best "diaper dandies" in college basketball and decided to share them here. You can see which guys have that leadership quality in them.
D'Angelo Russell:

Karl-Anthony Towns:

Jahlil Okafor (no post-game interviews; can't find any really):

- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zq02uckD30M (funny, his all-time starting five is the exact same as mine except I go with Magic over Stockton)

Did anyone else see this tonight? Somewhat interesting he is getting some love these days no doubt.
@DarrenWolfson: Asked an #NBA scout who has seen Bjelica this year for a comparison. Paused, then said Markieff Morris, but a better rebounder. #twolves

Thx for posting, Cam...I haven't heard any of them speak, and I learned a lot from those interviews. Bottom line is I like them all a lot, and thought they all show a great deal of maturity. None of them sounds like a freshman, but KAT strikes me as being the most poised and smartest in the group. And isn't he a year younger?

Thx for that, monster...I tend to forget about this Euro-stash until somebody brings him up. Nice to know we have a Morris type over in Europe. I'm glad the scout said better rebounder, though, because Markieff really underachieves on the glass.

Thanks for posting, Cam!! This is great stuff. It's posts like this that make this message board the best source of Wolves-related information and analysis.

If Garnett is Okafor's favourite 4 and Stockton is his favourite 5 something tells me he will be quite happy coming to the Wolves.

My intrigue with Stanley Johnson is very real. He's a damn man child.

So of we draft him we kinda need to sign David Stockton right? Lol

Hopefully Ohio State can pull off the upset in the first round. I'd like to see Russell and Johnson face off in the 2nd round.

I love his NBA ready body. I just don't like him in the top 4. But he would be a good get after that.
