2024 NBA Draft Mega Thread

OKC owns Houston’s 2024 1st top-4 protected from the Chris Paul/Russell Westbrook trade. That is ****ing wild.
That's why they're tanking their asses off this year. Gonna suddenly go for it hard next year. Will be interesting to see how that plays out.

That’s why it doesn’t make any sense for Houston to suck anymore. Hopefully they’re happy with their rebuild. . .

Westbrook has single-handedly destroyed the success of multiple teams over the past several seasons. . . and it’s still being felt. Lakers are lucky the Jazz bailed them out. He would’ve tanked them right out of the playoffs.

Sounds like he helped OKC a great deal and he was pretty good for the Clippers.

There is a lot to unpack about his time at OKC (including that he might’ve help push Durant out the door), but he helped OKC most when they were talent depleted. He might be the highest floor raiser and hardest ceiling capper of anyone in recent history.
 
Risacher does look quite intriguing. He is 8-9 months younger than Bilal, thought it would be interesting to compare their numbers as they've played in the same leagues. All numbers per36

I thought Danny said he liked the 24 class better than the 23 class? Or is it not true?
I believe that was when 2024 was expected to be the "double draft" when the usual "1 and done" kids were available PLUS kids straight from high school since the age limit was expected to be adjusted down.
