Yep. Congrats to KJ. Are you fucking kidding. Dude will be rich and gets to spend at least his early 20s in Miami. Some people just have it made.

Hope he does well. We saw the great and the not so great with him.

Riley was a lot of fun to watch and see him get better. Congrats to him. High ceiling IMO. Hope he works at it and is a stud in the league.

KJ in optimum location/organization for immediate chance to make a difference and grow.

Riley to Washington, may not get much PT, depending on roster moves etc...not a good spot to land in, but hey at least he will get to play against KJ often.

Not an NBA Expert, but hasn't Washington sucked forever and a day? Why couldn't he crack that rotation?

Also not an NBA expert, but maybe because he's a skinny kid who needs to work on his ball handling and defense ?

Congrats to Will, KJ. and to the coaches for bringing in 2 NBA 1st rounders.

Riley might have the biggest risk/reward factor in the draft, but he's undersized currently by 20+ lbs and was inconsistent compared to guys like Bailey or Murray-Broyles. As bad as the bottom feeder NBA teams are, he's likely not getting meaningful PT in year one.

Congrats to him and KJ, though. I was expecting KJ to go before teams were dice-rolling on French players, but it should be a good spot for him, particularly with Miami being as international as a place as it is.

Hope the bulls pick pans out, but it'll take several years at least.

With Derek Queen available and selected right after that I'm a little annoyed cause I like that dude. But we'll see how he pans out. Was hoping for Maluach.

Sun-Times said it perfectly.  "Meh" as the first line of the article.

They have alot of players in mid range size wise, and all are men....all have experience, Riley is still growing and has none, and he will not get some of the shots he took in college even off in the Pro's. He will be a very good player, just needs seasoning and whole lot of whey protein or Double Qtr's or something.

Stupid McCaskeys.
"He commented more than once that, 'You know, Hitler did some good things, too,'" Kelly recalled to The Times. Kelly said he would usually quash the conversation by saying "nothing (Hitler) did, you could argue, was good," but that Trump would occasionally bring up the topic again.
