I give it a C. Let's be honest, not going to normally find any gems this late so you have to take that into consideration.
I don't hate the Udoka pick, but think he would have been better at #38. I would have taken McDaniels/Bane at #28 to add some more athleticism/shooting as that draft looks better on paper. Those pairings at those selections would have probably made people feel a bit better.
Hughes was an okay selection at #39, but I'm not sure he's going to get substantial minutes anytime soon. Reminds me a bit too much of Kevin Murphy. Just not sure he's anything more than a G-League guy.
Unloading Bradley and #38 is still an Incomplete as we don't know what considerations we're getting, but it's obvious that the team wanted cap space and to replace him. Bradley was an awful selection in 2017 and we all knew it. Likely those considerations turn out to be a hill of beans and that we basically gave the pick for cap relief which is the equivalent of a front office bailout which would turn that to a F grade.
Honestly, our front office has drafted poorly recently. Chances are the Conley pick gets deferred to 2022, but DL and Zanik and team need to step it up. Otherwise...
