I'd be really unhappy now if I were an Atlanta Hawks fan.

The pick for the Wolves that would get me most excited would be Musa. I'm more intrigued by him than any prospect likely to be on the board when we pick.

Yeah Young might actually end being a really good player but it still seems a little weird and I'm a big Luka fan.

Carter Jr is one of the my favorite players in this draft. It gives me another reason to pay attention to the Bulls going forward.
Cavs are on the clock and it's one of the most interesting selections of the night.

I know some here prefer the ringer's mock to nbadraft.net, but the latter has been much better at predicting the draft order so far (currently through the 8th pick).

Well...if you don't want spoilers don't go on Twitter. They all said they weren't going to say picks before...but that didn't last long. Lol

Yeah, I know...Woj is incorrigble, so I"m avoiding him. I don't think nbadraft.net is changing their mock as the night goes on though, and they're really nailing it.

Sham isn't tied down to a network that agreed to it so Woj had to get in the game. The best part of this draft is how he's navigated around not saying someone is picking a player, while simultaneously saying who they are picking. Gonna see a master's class in the English language tonight.

Shams is part of yahoo who agreed to this as well. I think it was a Chicago writer that broke the ice.

I didn't realize he was part of Yahoo. They're definitely getting slapped after the draft because he's just outright calling picks. At least Woj is giving himself an out.
