Lol I thought we traded this pick.

Overall rank 37 picked at 56.

Not a bad value pick.

He and Kolek are just about NBA ready, and I think both fit into the Villanova vibe we're creating.


Both born in March of 2001, BTW. Both are tough and smart. I don't think their respective ceilings are that high, but I think these are the kinds of players Thibs will like.

A good 2nd Rnd for us, IMO, though I wish it could've developed in a more linear way.

I dunno. I like a good story with a twist.

I was honestly asking if we took their pick in the trade.

Kolek, McCullar, Dadiet should at least give Knicks summer league some type of entertainment value.

I remember reading an article where we worked him out. I liked what I saw in the limited video clips that are out there.

Undrafted Oregon center N'Faly Dante has agreed on a two-way deal with the Rockets, sources tell ESPN.

Lol already? The draft just ended. I liked this guy for Knicks.

Last pick in the draft is also first phonecall after the draft, right?

The PG we got looks like a really good pick.

Over the last decade, only two players have won the Big East Player of the Year award in a season in which they shot over 47% from the floor, over 39% from 3PT territory and over 80% from the FT line:

Tyler Kolek and Jalen Brunson

Probably the funniest and most entertaining draft with all the trades.

I like the Kolek pick. He was at the top of my list based on the late and very little research I did. He plays like a Thibs type and has the skillset with the passing that we needed off the bench.

Did no research on Dadiet, McCullers or Hukporti. But Dadiet's highlights are impressive. He looks as talented as any of the lotto wings. He is a perfect wing to stash away overseas or in Westchester until he is ready. Going up against Hart, OG and Bridges in practice is a great way to learn too.

And the other two guys were picked in the 50s so it's whatever.
