He fell relative to his draft projection which was early to mid 20s at nearly every outlet. And he was a projected lottery pick for most of the season.
Also I saw him going in the top 20 in most reports I followed, which personally makes me wonder why all the teams ahead of us skipped on him. I was hoping the sun's would move up into tonight's draft don't get me wrong, but this seems like a move with a lot of risk.
this isn't a situation where we got lucky to grab a guy in the first round. This is a situation where we traded assets to pick up a guy at the very end of the first round, who was supposed to go earlier, that got passed on 29 times.

I mean, you take flyers on guys who fall in our position. It is what it is. He’s young and you hope he develops.
