Other Sports **2024 NBA Draft Thead** - Page 4

Should be an interesting one. No consensus first round pick and anyone's guess who goes in the Top 15. Could be alot of surprises. Also someone may draft Bronny first round simply to get LeBron next year who is an unrestricted free agent.

Tomorrow 7pm.

Edey should be a big hit in Memphis with the grit and grind thing they got going down there.

I'm a Purdue fan and not really sure how Edey translates to the NBA. Rotational player who has some real attributes and in a poor class that's pretty barren, it's at least something to hang your hat on.

Then let me hear ya hoooooowwwl big guy!!!!

Steal of a pick by LeBron in getting Knecht there

Not too thrilled with the Edey pick. Definitely wanted to trade up for Clingan. I think the offensive potential is amazing, though for the pick and roll with him and Morant. Just have to hope Jaren Jackson can help him out on every pick and roll defensively.

Didn’t LeGM make that pick?

Like the Walter pick much more than Furphy for the Raps. A more multi-dimensional scorer.

Furphy free falling

The whole draft sucks so might as well get a guy with a discernible and translatable skill.

Not sure he'll actually be able to get into the lane like he did at TN but the shot should still work. He has a nice release so as a dedicated shooter and space creator, he should be a viable rotational guy.

He, Christie and Reaves should, between them, be able to provide some level of reliability on offense at guard.

Then again, I'm not sure either of last years draft picks will even make the roster so...whatever.

And he falls right into the 2nd. Massive miscalculation from Furphy and his agent to stay in the draft now rather than returning to KU.

Eh.

He wasn't even a consensus top 20 pick and I rarely heard him considered as a lottery guy.

Hard to call it a 'free fall'. Nothing beyond pick 12-14 really makes much difference anyway. They're all dart tosses. You'll see teams trade a late 1st for a couple seconds then trade the seconds for cash considerations with some regularity. Literally amounts to selling their late 1st.

Some team lied to him.
