Should be fun.

Hopefully we don't sell any picks tomorrow.
I just realized how anti-climatic the draft will be tonight with the Wolves no longer having a pick. But after the draft tonight, we will have a chance to scour the remaining prospects for our 3rd pick tomorrow night!

Have fun WW!

We can still wait with bated breath over the Celtics and hornets picks to see if we trade Rudy….for a rookie PG…who won’t play….

lol. Hopefully not, Wild. Your comment takes me back to when the Wolves sold the draft rights to the pick used by Utah to take Rudy Gobert. That was after the Wolves traded down in that draft when could have drafted McCollum. Then our crackerjack front office used the two picks they got from trading down to take Bazz and Luol Deng in stead of Giannis. They capped off their stellar draft night by selling the rights to the 27th pick used to draft Rudy. Whenever I start get down on Tim Connelly I think back to the idiocy of prior Wolves front office regimes and I suddenly feel much better about Tim. :)

Yep that was a good time. It's worth mentioning that that front office made a good trade down passing on Trey Burke who I thought was overrated. Yes they passed on CJ mcCcullum but they traded down fland could have drafted be able to draft 2 HOFers and missed both. At least Dieng was a reasonably useful player.

The Wolves have just one pick and have space to add players in terms of finances so I don't see them totally dumping a pick

I've watched for a few minutes and I don't think I can keep watching. I don't think I care to watch these analysts talk about these guys for hours.

Jefferson being taken at our pick stings a little.


There will be talent at 33 as long as we don’t sell it.

I still think we pick Jack Kayil.

I think Jack would be a nice pick at 33.
