Loving the content so many thanks to both of you🤘Somehow only 14 minutes was available through the podcast, just wanted to double check if that was an error on my end or yours
samson must have known i was fiending for another folk fix
Great episode as always!
Surprised he didn't mention Taylor Hendricks I guess because he's mocked at top 8 but so is Gradey. Bufkin would be great if Casen Wallace is gone an interesting consolation prize. Cam Whitmore would be great if they trade OG could be an adequate replacement in time although Jarace Walker would be ideal for that but he's probably going top 6.
I’d be happy with any of the 3.
I really like Kobe Bufkin (and Cason Wallace, if available) at #13. It's gotta be a guard.
Hopefully the Raptors gets another pick in this particular draft, like a second round pick at least, to give this year second and next year first for a aging Center who is not MVP Jokic or Embiid is totally wayward bonehead for a still doubtful direction,non championship team as the Raptors.
Another great episode – keep the draft content rolling!
One thing to note about Bufkin is he started the season shooting 2/19 from 3 hut then shot 40% in the last 28 games (including going bananas in his last 9). I think he can project as a really good shooter in the nba and to go along with his cutting ability, elite rim pressure and solid defensive outlook makes him MY GUY for the raps in the draft (unless Cason Wallace is available).
kobe bufkin would be a bad fit. period
dick is slow he would have to play the 3
