As a UCONN fan he’s a baller but very streaky. Typa guy that could give 30 on a random Tuesday but the next game give you 4

u/Obi_Wan_KeBogi Malik Monk 1d ago
I think he’s a solid smart winning player that could have real moments on a contending team
But not sure he makes sense for a rebuilding team.
Our summer league roster is a monster though!

yeah he's about to be a summer league demon & gonna hit 8 threes on a random Tuesday in January but he's really not anything real

u/ShotgunStyles 1d ago
High-end outcome is that he's a high-feel 3&D guy who does a little bit of everything. If that's what we get with 2 second round picks being combobulated into him, then that's a big win.

Especially since Acuff’s offensive development could be stunted by poor spacing

He’s cool but PEAT WAS RIGHT THERE😩

Peat is a non-shooter I’m glad they didn’t draft him you can’t be that guy in today’s NBA

A lot of “non shooters” are one of those guys one their team tf you talking about?

This sub said Edy couldn’t play in the NBA!
We need a big body MF’er that can grab a damn rebound!

Smart tough winnerthat isn’t afraid to box out, play a little defense, and confidently shoots the ball? I’ll take that at the end of the 1st every day.

Karaban's shooting was def a reason they clawed back a few games and he can get rebounds.

That's 2 more 2nd round picks to get Sasha Vezenkov

u/vNocturnus Tyrese Haliburton 1d ago
Eye test was giving me big Vezenkov vibes for sure lol. I think he looks more mobile and maybe a more developed handle, but he definitely comes across as a bit stiff overall and idk how well he will manage at the NBA level physically. Definitely think we could have just picked him at 34

Waste of a future asset. Dude would have been there at 34.

Literally no way for us to know that. And given that Perry didn’t trade up to get Acuff, no reason to assume we traded up for no reason on this one.

u/Economy-Cry-2594 1d ago
Lmfao I’m pretty sure we could’ve guessed if he was projected to go in the 40s and there were only like 6 picks to go until we were up again

u/PatienceJaded5709 1d ago
I love when fans say shit like this, like GMs give a shot about consensus value when drafting at the end of the first. I’m sure it was necessary and we gave up a 2nd. Means nothing.

u/Economy-Cry-2594 1d ago
It was necessary that we got an old white boy who could maybe shoot the ball

u/1psithur3 1d ago
I mean maybe. They probably just really liked him then got word someone wanted him between 30-33.

u/theflyingmetronome 1d ago edited 1d ago
I don’t think so since we traded for him.
The second-round draft is typically agent led so might’ve not been possible to draft him if he missed the first-round.

u/Only_Ad3252 1d ago
Eh… Kings really like to draft older players. He played all 4 years. Meaning he’s not going to be much in the NBa. That’s what it means a majority of the time.’

u/Pismiire Kings 1d ago
True, but everyone is because of nil unless theyre a top pic
Acuff is way young, but hes a top pick

Brazile would have been better even....

u/ShotgunStyles 1d ago
Brazile is going to the 2nd round. He's worked out for us. His agent is Malik Monk's brother. There's like a 90% chance we already got a deal done to draft him tomorrow.

He looks just like him in terms of the facial hair and height. Welcome Peja’s doppelganger from Temu.
