2024 NBA Draft Reaction Thread

This actually sounds like a story from the onion, "Jazz draft player being groomed by mormon".....but it's actually true. Mom says he abandoned his family for this woman who approached him in HS and "took him away from his craft". Seems like a messed up situation no matter what. I'll stick to making fun of him for being a tall white guy from Duke.
The Jazz sending recruiters early, just in the form of girlfriends in order to circumvent the CBA's prohibition of teams talking to highschoolers. Truly an onion type of story...
 
...so his brother is making multiple attempts to leak the story that could ruin Kyle's career? That's more ****ed up than the story itself
My experience with this... when it happens the person cuts off all contact with the family and friends and desperation can set in. But yeah... its one of those things where the harder the family pushes the worse it all gets... if it is an issue and this woman really is this devious this type of behavior feeds her purpose. Its a bad move and will divide them all further.
 
Not sure how it can ruin his career. The NBA lets domestic abusers stay in the NBA. They dont care that Flip is clapping older cake.
But the fact they are trying to reveal the story as some kind of big deal tells you everything about his family. It's not like the kid is in any kind of trouble and needs their help. He's played two years of good basketball in one of the best programs on earth then drafted into the best league in the world to make millions...Life is good.

Just what are they doing and what are they hoping to achieve?

Yeah it tells you the family is probably the problem. Sucks for Flip.
 
he wasn't a fit for utah obviously, but i love the KJ Simpson pick at 42 for Charlotte.

imo, he's a valuable rotation guard in the league for a long time.
 
The Jazz have an open 2 way contract, so might be worth buying one of these late picks. That said there is enough talent left that there will be good undrafted prospects.
