saw a pic of him checking out a wemby mural from his car

This interview with Wemby has made me a fan - seems really smart and self-aware.

getting drafted by the lakers is like winning the lottery of the lottery

is it? lebron is already thinking about trading u for ish smith as soon as u get there

well you get to be on the lakers

damn I kinda wanted jaquez for the nuggets

adam driver/serj tankian hyrbid going to miami

I love his look too best dresser of the drafted dudes so far

jaquez to the heat is a sensible one

i swear if the dubs get whitmore and hes actually good sheeeeeeesh

this dude is one of the most LA looking guys ever

been awhile since we've had a baller who was pirate-adjacent in look

jaquez seems like he'll be a massive pain in the ass if he can hang with nba athletes

adam driver/serj tankian hyrbid

Guess I need to do some research on Brandin Podziemski

Kobe Beefkin

podziemski's dad is a real, uh, character

so does cam whitmore need an urgent amputation or…

i bet he wants to fuck the flag

xp

Jaime Jaquez has been one of my favorite players to watch for the last 3 years. Plays hard, has worked to expand his game so much. Defends. Fights hard every second.

Remember in his first year, all UCLA would talk about was how he was already a lead-by-example guy as a freshman.

v v interesting how so many of these guys are going with Hard Worker as a personality when the world's least grindesetted superstar just won

obvious move there for the rockets

the nightmare is over

honestly they were rumored to be interested in him at #4, kinda of crazy to get him AND amen

can anyone think of precedents for a projected top 5 pick who fell out of the lottery and then was still good in the NBA? i feel like this happens in football especially with QBs but i’m drawing a blank on any basketball examples

maybe not top 5 prospect, but dejounte was projected in the lottery and fell to 29

didnt rob williams fall pretty far

was hoping clowney would fall to 23

gotta be leonard miller

MPJ?

oh yeah MPJ is a good one

he may have still been in the lottery but certainly counts in spirit

it’s understandable that matt armstrong stopped posting on ILH given his demanding job as GM of the mavs

The Kings are trading Richaun Holmes and No. 24 to Dallas, sources tell ESPN.

olivier-maxence prosper is such a good name

it’s been a huge night for the french

celtics taking that pick they got for marcus and trading right out of the first round

The Celtics will get No. 31 in the trade, per source. https://t.co/DHxLqCuLlc

dammit i need to stay awake for 6 more picks

Celtics should be in range to use the $5M Taxpayer MLE after they trade Marcus Sasser to the Pistons and drop out of the #25 pick.
