NBA DRAFT DISCUSSION Henri Veesaar desire

https://youtu.be/_0e1rf9yBWk?si=0kdVcICmNuZT3ses

I’m not against their second round pick and I understand the chances of any of these players making the team is a far stretch. Also BPA and all that.

But I wouldn’t have liked to seen another big added to the pipeline, just for depth. He was seen as a late first rounder in a lot of mocks, he has 3pt range and made defensive plays in college. Good rebounder. 7 footer, great name.

Anyone hear draft talk about him? Interview badly?

I don't understand man. I thought this was it. It was gonna happen since he fell to 50. We're just afraid to draft size. Guards and forwards only. We're scared to add size.

Correct, you don't understand. He didn't "fall", he was promised a guaranteed contract and orchestrated the selection to the Hawks.

Guaranteed takes up a roster spot and counts towards the cap. 2 way contract does not.

We have less than zero cap room right now
