Only team on that list that was "widely accepted" not to be interested in him was Minny. PHX was interested, they were the team he cancelled on to work out a second time for Boston.
Weird that DA wouldn't take LuwawuI or Korkmaz unless he's worried that they will want to come over to the States. '
Should be interesting to see what flyers he takes in the second round. I have money on Maine winning their title next year.

Well Zizic probably wants to come over this year so I doubt it was that, maybe just higher on getting big men with upside than wings.
They're terrific

Boston was going to pick Hernangomez at 16, which forced Denver to take him at 15 instead of waiting until 15 like they originally planned.

While this tweet is incoherent (presumably he means 19, not 15), if true, it raises questions concerning why it's known who the Celtics were going to take...
Korkmaz to Sixers. One of the best shooters in the draft, tons of offensive tools, good size and athleticism for a SG. Needs to get a lot stronger though.
So this year is interestingly like last, Zizic seemed like he had a bigger chance to be gone at 16 than Yabusele, but Danny guesses right and gets him on the comeback similar to the Rozier/Hunter situation last year.
I like both these sixers picks. I like Luwawu a lot. Great pick there.
Would have prefered McCaw to Korkmaz but given how nervous I was of something stupid, good job !

I just saw Yabusele interviewed by Abby Chin on Comcast. Seems like a smart, sincere guy. I like him.
I think it's really just that he was terrible at basketball this year.
Siakam, there's another binkie off the board.
Didn't pay attention to UK this season, did he ever figure it out? I watched him early and he was a mess.
Nope. Though if one wants to defend him for some reason Calipari tried to make him a back to the basket C which was..... dumb.
Well I think that response was also echoed In Davis' face when they showed his reaction
And Skal comes off the board at 28 to the Kings (via Suns). So 3 C/PF in the 1st in last 2 years. Boogie is gonna kill somebody.
Between Briwn and Yabusele I wonder how much Niednagel is involved these days. They may be the two most articulate players drafted so far.
I think they like WCS. Boogie is the guy they're most likely to move. nighthob is fairly certain the Boogieman is Laker-bound.
This whole proposed trade to thing is so dumb while these idiots talk about a team the guy will not play for.
I was thinking about the Brain Doc, too. My guess is that Ainge still values his input.
