    He would have been the #1 pick the last 2 years.

    That's something he'll definitely have to get better at. He's just so used to having his way with pull up jumpers and step backs when it's time to go left.

    This should only further solidify Bagley's case for going #1

    Niceeeee


    Also, UPDATE: Michael Porter Jr. Close to coming back apparently. Was just ruled not clear yet to play, but the fact that there was an option to play means good things, right?

    I kind of feel like it'd be insane of him to actually play. Then again, I didn't think he'd be cleared for another few weeks.
    I mean they're 18-10, 3rd in the SEC, could make a mini-run in the tournament, and could use the help.

    I think if he’s in any other situation he takes it more slower and more cations. But Mizzou is look solid and his younger brother Jontay (2019 first round pick) is currently the best player. His dad is the assistant coach he might as well go all in. If he gets hurt again, I see him returning for a sophomore season.

    but weren't all the MPJ's fanclubs insisting this guy is 100% healthy :rolleyes:

    I think it was @True Rocket who was one of them leading the charge. apparently he was supposed to be dropping 25+ pts in the summer league with ease

    Still a good pick at 14 for Denver, who is a fringe playoff team and not a major market, in my opinion. Even if he doesn't play this season you still get him on a cheap rookie deal to see what you have.
