maybe.
i think after wiggins and jabari its kind of a crapshoot.

i will be able to get excited about whoever we pick but vonleh is the player i saw the least of (i watched alot of smart, wiggins, embiid, jabari, and randle and saw a handfull of gordons games.... dont think i even saw one of vonlehs games) and vonlehs workout video was the least impressive of the ones i saw.... even his highlight videos are kinda boring. which all means absolutely nothing since exciting highlights are not the best indicator of a players value (duncan comes to mind).

only thing about vonleh that has ever really wowed me are his measurements and his 3pt percentage

that is why we need mcbuckets
 
^ this is gonna be one of the funnest drafts to watch play out over the next few years, in a long time ^
 
If Gordon or Smart go top-4, one of Exum or Embiid will be there at 5 (which I am obviously about). Who knows, maybe even Parker.

Wonderful. We get a guy who will try to play the rest of his career on a bad foot and with a bad back. But I really don't have to worry. Lindsey is a smart GM. He's not going to draft Embiid unless the guy slips to #23.

Dude will be out 9 months his back will be 110%.

Can you post your medical credentials?
His back problems to date have been chronic, having had problems in HS AND college. He now has screws in one of the slowest healing, yet super critical bone in his foot. Broken back, broken foot - sounds like the guy has brittle bones. Could be due to his height or nutritional deficits growing up in his native Cameroon.

The guy didn't even know he had a broken foot and was looking impressive in his workouts. I heard his back checked out too.

Sure it did...until he starts playing actual games again. Bowie looked wonderful in workouts too; he was concealing a bad knee so he could get drafted and get paid. With Embiid's agent holding his medical records, can anyone be really sure he's fully disclosing everything? He's been very selective in what has been revealed. It even took some digging to learn of the back pain Embiid experienced in HS.
