You did great. Too bad there were a lot of wonky picks that won’t happen in real life lol.

There are always wonky picks though.
Tristan Da Silva gives me Trey Lyles vibes. I have a hard time getting excited about him.
I think Da Silva's position in the nba is a 3 that can play some minutes at the 4 and 2 depending on who he is paired with. I always viewed Lyles as a 4 that could play some minutes at the 3 or 5 depending on who he was paired with. I also think Da Silva's shooting is going to translate really well.
If TDS turns into Trey Lyles (or has that kind of career) that’s a great pick in the mid to late first round.
I think he's a fine pick in the 20s. Should be a solid borderline rotation guy for a handful of years

Especially when you get value for moving back and then still get the guy you wanted.
I think people are really sleeping on him defensively. Outside of Castle I think he is the best wing defensive prospect in the draft.

@Elizah Huge is up.
McCain at 20 is good value. I think he could be a top 10 pick. I'm not sure if I like him for the Jazz, but can't argue with the pick. Holland is very much an eye of the beholder prospect with his draft range reflecting that. I wouldn't be too excited if the Jazz draft ended up this way, but would understand it.
