NBA Draft Tonight
-
Lawson not getting drafted is probably better for him honestly. His agent can find the situation that would give Lawson the best chance at making a roster instead of being locked into a situation that isn’t guaranteed to be a great fit for him.
-
Culver from Texas Tech to Phoenix - -at # 6 - 1st round -good for him Jaxon Hayes from Texas to Atlanta - -traded to New Orleans -at * 8 - -nice
-
You know, I’m thinking that San Antonio would be a hell of a good fit for Lawson.
-
Let’s all take a moment to laugh at Dook, 3 guys in the top 10, no title tho…
-
@kjayhawks Yeah, and look at Kentucky the year that they were undefeated. Look at Cal and Roy loading up on all the grad transfers, they recognize it too. I’m telling you, I’m bigtime down with the class that we signed this year!
-
With the 19th pick, the San Antonio Spurs select Luka …Doncic. We wants him. Is he still available?
-
@approxinfinity That dude can flat out ball! What do you think? Think Lawson would be a good fit in San Antonio?
-
@Marco it’s hard to say. We never got to see more than hero ball from Dedric and his D was abysmal. I’d say no.
-
@approxinfinity Cool. Where then?
-
@Marco Europe or G-League after a summer league stint that he doesn’t catch on with anyone because he isn’t athletic enough for the NBA.
-
@Marco Coach K is about the only coach that has came out in support of the OAD. I get it in a way because hes winning these recruiting battles l (#1 class 4 years running) but hes won nothing with those classes. Cals best teams have had some guys with experience as well, that unbeaten team to the FF had a few sophomores and a junior.
-
@marco yeah it’s got to be euro league. Hes not going to be a plus rebounder with height but no vert in NBA. Z bo might be a decent comp that stuck in NBA and the guy probably had 50 lbs on him.
-
Lawson signed a Summer League deal with Golden St. I think he’ll end up overseas at some point with a good contract
-
When is the last time we didnt have anyone drafted? Seems like its been a while.
-
@kjayhawks 2009, ESPN closed their live broadcast with that nugget.

I’m shocked.
-
@kjayhawks 2009 I think I heard.
-
Thanks, I dont think we even had a guy entered in 2009. That team didnt have a OAD or any seniors.
-
No surprise that KU didn’t have anyone drafted. Before the season, Grimes was the only one really on the radar. Once he fell off, it was pretty clear that no one was going to hear their name called. Depending on what happens next year, I could see the potential that KU might not have anyone picked then, either.
-
@justanotherfan I agree, Vick could’ve been a late first rounder had he kept his head in the game. I think Dotson, Ochai, Doke and SDS will all be drafted next year. I dont know if anyone goes in the lottery but it sounds like Dotson and Doke would’ve been drafted late 2nd round this year.
-
@kjayhawks Vick was never going to be drafted. He only had one skill and he was a streaky at best shooter. Nothing about Vick’s game said was NBA level.

I had to log in for this! I am in Hawaii (please, no tears, we will get through it!) and saw a blue Duke Tshirt with a big “2019 ACC Tounament Champions” banner.
I figure he had a full set of postseason Tshirts in mind, and ended up with just the one!
Bye again for now, and kudos to all of you sharing so much good info. Good luck to the KU free agents!
-
@mayjay aloha! Come get me!
-
@mayjay thanks for the invite lol. Although you are about 5 months early, get off your phone and have a good time!!
-
Does Luka Doncic = Trae Young + Cam Reddish?
The Hawks’ #10 pick this year was the pick they got from Dallas for trading Luka Doncic for Trae Young. If Reddish is a bust, then it wasn’t worth it.
-
@approxinfinity people sleepin on Cam
