With the 9th pick in the 2021 NBA Draft the Sacramento Kings have selected Davion Mitchell. This comes as a huge surprise as the Kings had not been linked to Mitchell at all. It remains to be seen if this is a pick for the Kings or if they’ll be trading the pick.
Our draft guru Bryant West wrote of Mitchell:
Davion is a dude I would bet on to make the most of his NBA career, and there’s no question as to why he excites teams; he’s as high-motor a defender as you could ask for, and was the soul of the Baylor Bears championship squad this year. He also took big steps forward as a shooter and playmaker this year. So why do I have him so low? At 6’2 with a 6’4 wingspan, he will certainly make an impact on defense, but I don’t think he has the defensive range that many of his comps (Marcus Smart and Jrue Holiday) do. And while he nailed 44% of his threes this year, I worry that this year was a shooting mirage – he hit on just 31% of his threes in his first two seasons, and his career free throw mark is just 65%. That all said, I understand why teams want to bet on the person – he’s a legitimately awesome competitor.
I’ll be honest, I am baffled by this pick. Mitchell is two years older than Tyrese Haliburton. He’s a year older than Marvin Bagley. He’s a tenacious defender, but guard is the one position where the Kings already had depth.
Obviously, I always want success for whoever the Kings pick, but this is an absolutely confusing selection.
Let me be the first to say welcome to
hell.
*Welcome to Basketball Hell
At least Jerry Reynolds is happy.
I’m happy… suprised but happy.
Actually Jerry said he loved Mitchell but would draft Moody due to guard glut !
¦.ok.
Well, welcome Davion! Here’s hoping your champion ways didn’t stop in college¦somehow.
Happy for the kid! Welcome!
But… won’t he take the ball away from Fox’s hands?
Ah well. Let’s go Kings!
I don’t know what to say at all………..
Monte McReynolds made the pick.
Welcome to sac Davison!
Davion*
Trade Fox for Simmons now?
no
Perhaps Delon wright is coveted by some teams and Davion fills that backup pg role
Kings using a top 10 lottery pick for a backup PG? I’d call that crazy but it is the Kings
backup PG is a very important spot
How you gonna downvote that. Bobby Jackson, anyone?
unless your starting 5 is set, you don’t burn the #9 pick on a backup
if the by far bpa is a #7 in the “lineup” but better than the #3 in the starting lineup you take him.
I wouldn’t of done it but I think Monte is going with bpa and will work out the roster moves later
He’s a shooting guard.
Vivek still reeling from Bogi loss. Trying a 2nd time so he doesn’t make same mistake twice
Simmons is garbage….. contractually/contextually speaking… No offense Simmons
I would kick the tires on that but not anything close to what Morey is calling for.
We are screwed…………..
Kuminga is gone at #7, then Wagner at #8…………..
fxxk that
Hell no, nobody knows how these guys will turn out. Credit management for drafting the perceived best player. When you start worrying about position you get Justin Jackson.
I am not worrying about position…
I like Kuminga and Wagner much much more than Davion Mitchell
And you’ve been scouting these guys for awhile. Has anybody seen enough of Kuminga to really intelligently comment about him. Mitchell can play and he should it on a big stage. We need players and guys that get after it on defense.
Um, okaaaay.
We shall see!
Kudo’s to our management for going with the perceived best player available and not worrying about position.
Wtf?
Yes…WTF!!!!!!!
Meh? Been hoping it would be one of Sengun, Moody, Bouknight or Williams. But damn didn’t expect that at all!
At this point, hoping we can trade into
the first for another pick.
Can he play SF?
I’m guessing Hali will be with Fox and Davion in the back court.
Davion, I’m sorry. You could have gone to a better team (there’s 29 of them).
Shots are on me. See your nearest bartender.
O’Mally’s? 😉
I would, but am 40 minutes away from there and have already done some 12oz. curls tonight.
There was starting to be some talk in the last days of StR about an in-person thing. There’s the new mask mandate in Sac county, but it would be fun to get together (eventually).
Hopefully when more folks are vaccinated and it’s safer to do so we can do a Kings Herald one day!
I’m surprised Sacramento County did a mask mandate before out here in the Bay Area, but I feel that a mask mandate out here is a matter of when, and not if at this point.
I take it back. Draft Sengun. Why the hell can’t this team ever just take a wing? This strikes me as the guy Vivek saw in the tournament and wanted him. Unless a trade is coming (it never is) we continue to be screwed.
Just like we all thought some big trade was coming last trade deadline, right? 😉
Every freaking time this clown car pulls the rug out from under us. It’s ridiculous how often they kick us in the balls.
Kings logo jockstraps for the site store?
I love it. I would order one tomorrow.
Likewise.
The same guy Vivek is in love with that we can’t trade ð¤
Does he come with Quincy Acy?
I like his motor and D.
I worry about his size.
I fear they took an upperclassman because they are in win-now mode and wanted an immediate contributor.
Another draft, another year picking my jaw up off the floor
As kings fans at least we always have something to talk about at draft time lol
Like drafting Tyrese Haliburton
This has Vivek written all over it. He’s due for a win, so hopefully he nailed this pick.
I’m as confused as anyone, but can we stop excusing every questionable move as Vivek stepping in and making decisions on behalf of his front office? However this goes, Monte needs to get credit or blame.
The reason it seems like Vivek has fingerprints all over this franchise is because he is the owner, makes the hiring decisions, and hires people of the same mindset to execute his vision. Not because he is somehow overriding Monte’s brilliant ideas with bozo moves (unless anyone is aware of reporting to the contrary that the pick was not made by Monte?)
Stop bashing our coping mechanism!
i bet Vivek paid you with Bitcoin to write that.
Sure, I’ll bet all the Bitcoin I got from Vivek that he did not pay me in Bitcoin.
Have you worked for Vivek? History tells all and as the last 8 yrs have shown the owner or whoever the NBA dictates to be the hestad of the Kings is responsible as you know it all starts at the top. You can’t forgive the perceived owner after 8 yrs of complete studity.
Leader
If you read above, apparently I am on Vivek’s payroll!
But, I never said that Vivek bears no responsibility. I’ve been very critical of him for a long time. I am just combating the nonsense that McNair has all these brilliant moves up his sleeve, but every time we instead make a questionable one, it must be because Vivek is somehow walking around the office overriding McNair’s genius.
Sure draft an undersized point guard who will play 12 minutes a game behind the team’s best player. Smart. Very smart.
At least picking Bouknight would have been good for a little excitement.
This is just a weird pick. And with Delon Wright, I’m not even sure what the plan could be.
4 on 5?
Maybe the plan is to move a guard?
dude, we have 8 guards now…
Fox/Hali/Buddy/Delon/TD/James/Mitchell/Ramsey
Yeah, I remember we got mad at Vlade for having an unbalanced roster. Monte has work to do.
and Kyle Guy.
22 year old undersized pg definitely makes sense to start in the lottery. Monte McNair no longer has the benefit of the doubt with me: I don’t know why I expected anything different. He was a Vivek hire after all.
Same size as Damian Lillard…not so undersized.
“Undersized” generally relates to defense. Lilliard is not known for his defense and Mitchell’s shooting ability is nothing like Dames.
Mitchell had a better 3 pt pct at Baylor -44% than Lliard at Weber state 38% !
Well, I think this feels like a precursor to a deal. What the deal is I don’t know. But hopefully that’s it. Otherwise, it’s an interesting pick to justify.
I want to believe so badly that there is some deal in the works because if not… man.
Jerry wanted him, interestingly enough. There’s a good reason for it.
I know he did but unless there is some major roster reshuffling, I just don’t see where he gets minutes unless they are going to run a tiny three guard lineup all the time.
This can’t be the end of this story. There’s just too much going on.
I kind of feel like they need to move 2 guards now. Is it possible that Delon Wright could be moving out with Buddy? I get the feeling they’d like to keep Davis unless he gets a crazy offer so that leaves 5 guards who all need minutes even AFTER Buddy gets traded. I really hope Monte has a plan.
Yeah, I can see that FK&C. There’s a lot of possibilities. It just doesn’t feel like a bad pick, it just feels difficult to see the vision given the depth chart. I’m not terribly concerned, admittedly. But if I don’t like the product, I’ll quit and move onto something else. It’s up to this franchise to make me interested in them, not the other way around.
Truer words have never been spoken.
Listened to the podcast and Jerry said he loved Mitchell but due to guards he would take Moody ! Fact !
#foreverkangz
Considering Hield is on the move, Mitchell actually seems like a good combo guard. Seems like they are certain they will trade Hield
he’s 6’1″, he’s not a combo guard
I thought position was primarily based on the ability to guard players at that position. Shouldn’t Davion be able to guard most 2 guards?
no…he’s 6-1, with a 6-4 wingspan, he’s going to struggle stopping taller PGs
If only there were examples of him having success covering NBA caliber point guards with size…
He did a great job on Cade Cunningham !
You don’t think he is clamping a dude like Buddy if his defense translates?
Of course it will…2 inches isn’t crap in the big scheme if you can play
This!
didn’t he shut down Cade?
Of course you’re correct he doesn’t know what he’s talking about. He’s just trying to play to an audience.
Said he was 6’2″ on ESPN
And what’s a combo guard. That’s ridiculous. When you know basketball the distinction is superfluous. Something original or with a different take would be nice.
I was thinking more of a small SG at 6’2″ with 6’4″ wingspan. His defense and his shooting is his strong point, no?
That’s the KANGZ I know.
At least they picked somebody who can definitely play basketball.
I personally am excited about the pick. I’ve been following Davion since his sophomore year of HS when he won a championship for my alma mater. Maximum effort and suffocating defense is who he is on a basketball court. He has shown the understanding of how to accept a role on a team and find a way to improve the skills needed to expand that role.
The Kings have more holes to fill but I like the backcourt of the future. Just complete a Buddy trade soon!
I like Davion’s D, but the rest of his game & his poor fit w/the Kings make this a baffling selection. Drafting Garuba or Moody would’ve been a better way to improve the D.
Because drafting for fit has so much upside?
My worries about everything but his defense are my biggest concern. The fit is also a concern. Garuba & Moody were other D 1st players who were better fits (& Garuba’s probably a better defender).
Remember when we could have drafted Luka but already had a point guard?
In retrospect, we probably should have just gone ahead and picked Luka and worried about the fit later.
Agreed, drafting for fit got us Marvin Bagley.
Wait what the hell did the Spurs just do? For real?
I guess they’re trying to make the NBA draft almost as odd as the NHL draft. Picking Primo was almost as surprising as Montreal taking Logan Mailloux.
Send their coach to Japan to lose the olympics? … Just kidding… I love you Pop.
I’m choosing to like the pick. He’s an all around good player, with defensive tenacity. At 22, he can come in and get up to speed quicker imo, and be on Fox and Haliburton’s timelines.
Excellent point.
I said that back in 2018 and the rest¦.well I rather not discuss about that¦.
Agreed and thumbed … has been a winner at all levels and Lord knows we need defense.
Did we workout or interview Mitchell?
I don’t believe so, and that is what concerns me right now.
Yeah, I remember when people were praising Monte for bringing in all these prospects and saying that at least the process is good and then I asked what if they pick someone they didn’t bring in¦
I wonder which teams had work out with Mitchell ?
We don’t know if they interviewed him or not. The Kings weren’t announcing anything and media outlets were pushing the Warriors angle.
He just had a presser and declined to comment on the question if they interviewed him¦
So he’s already towing the company line!
Marvin’s wonderful workout is why we don’t have Luka. Maybe it’s a good thing.
He was not on Tony’s list.
Just watched highlights. This guy is real good, a bit stocky, he’s not going to break.
Have they just been drawing names from a hat since pick #6?
Hield and Mitchell for Kuminga and Moody (if they take him)¦who says no?
GS.
The NBA cap rules
The universe where nothing doesn’t exist.
Thank God we did not take Bad Moody!
Davion Mitchell is friggin good, it is fine. He creates space and plays bulldog defense. What is not to like about a Donovan look-a-like?
I argued against the choice because he is duplicative player compared to TD. So now TD is going to be matched on whatever offer he receive and then we look to trade him.
You could keep TD and trade Wright, maybe that could work, because Donovan plays his share of spot PG.
All this means is McGenius is just getting started, since our roster is so imbalanced.
This was a BPA decision for those of you perplexed by the choice. Isn’t that what most of us wanted?
Shot creation, the most important skill, and defense were addressed, so I am not mad.
For anyone who wants to argue hes too short, players do not like play against 200 pound fire hydrant type player with great lateral quickness.
I would rather have had Kai Jones, but the draft is not over yet and McGenius could still be plotting and scheming!
So “McGenius” just drafted a guy that he didn’t interview or workout to play behind the best player on the team. Is this some kind of 4 dimensional chess?
I don’t disagree with you our roster is terribly imbalanced as it stands.
A three guard lineup would work though with TD and Wright on the move.
I cannot vehemently argue against the notion Davion was BPA, he is a shot and space creator, the most important skill in the NBA, and plays tenacious defense.
It is interesting fans say his size is an issue, when I believe he probably weighs 20-25 pounds more than Ty!
I have no issue with the player or his size. I have issue with obvious redundancy with the current roster. I get BPA, but I can’t wrap my head around him being that clear of a BPA over those around him.
Do you remember we need a 3, we need a 3, but what the hell is a 3, but we needed a 3 and got Justin Jackson and passed up on Donovan Mitchell,and the dumb knock on him was he really wasn’t a point guard and too small for the 2 guard. How’d that work out.
Do you remember the Kings worked out Mitchell, had the #10 pick, and then traded back to pick Jackson and Giles.
This team has little to no track record to recognize BPA.
They didn’t look for the best player available in that draft. They had two of the top ten picks in a loaded draft and really blew it at 10. They were consumed with getting a so called 3. Exactly my point,
I also get BPA, but I am not nearly convinced that Mitchell was the BPA with Sengun, Bouknight, Moody, Willams all still on the board. Not convinced by the comparisons to Donovan Mitchell either. Donovan averaged 15ppg in his 2nd year in Louisville. Davion didn’t even hit that in 4 yrs.
That’s a fair point. We shall see.
Davion shot 44% from 3 and Donavan 28 % ! Also, Davion was the best player on a NCAA Champ !
Mateen Cleaves, Khalid El-Amin and Kyle Guy: “Hold our beers.”
OG was still available when we picked Jackson. We just didn’t pick the right player that fit. Of course donavan or Collins would have been better
It’s not his weight, it’s his wingspan I worry about.
I bet he’s bigger than Chris Paul who’s had a pretty good career.
I generally refer to him as Vlonte McDivac rather than McGenius.
Davion should be a good defender, but I have questions about the rest of his game & his fit w/the Kings.
The Warriors get Kuminga and Moody with 7 and 14…
Another crummy draft after they wasted the #2 pick last year, haha, they should have taken Alperen!
We need another 1st round pick to get Unicorn Jackson!
I’m going to hold my opinion until the night is over. Because this feels like a pick that’s either getting traded, or backfilling for a different trade.
Fair point, I would trade Davion Mitchell for Alperen and Isaiah Jackson if they are available at #16 and #18 (OKC)
That would be incredible.
Just doesn’t seem how it could be anything else. Who knows if we will like it, but it cant just be taking Mitchell and Their 4 top guards are still here.
But the more time that goes by, I get just a little bit sicker.
Nobody knows how these guys will turn out. I like the fact they went out and got who they thought was the best player available. This guy displays the type of heart and competitiveness the Kings are greatly lacking. I was fearing they would draft Kispert.
I might’ve preferred Kispert.
Jimmer and Sauce Castillo: “Hold our beers.”
Agreed and thumbed … we need guys with a little junk yard dog in them.
Ah, denial. The best of phases!
I felt the same when the pick was made. Seemed strange at the time.
Nothing against Mitchell, but this is a fucking joke.
Mitchell is the kind of player who should be taken when you have no holes on your roster and you’re looking for character. I am so disappointed.
I’ve held back on judging McNair until he actually did something, but with this pick he’s confirmed himself to be an idiot.
Mitchell is a friggin good player though, it just means the GM has a lot more moves to make to balance the roster.
It could be that TD and Wright are on their way out , attached to Buddy and Bagley, to get us the wing help we need.
Then you have a 3-guard rotation of Mitchell, Ty and Fox.
Also lets see if something could be brewing tradewise with OKC at #16 and #18?!
Mitchell is a great college player, I think he’ll be a good back up PG and even better teammate, but his ceiling is maybe Fred Vanvleet and he makes ZERO sense for this roster. You’re doing a ton of work here with all these posts trying defend this pick.
I am not judging this based on all of the assumptions you’re making, you’re bending over backwards trying to make this make sense. There were at least 10 different players I would have taken before Mitchell.
If McNair makes a move, I may revise my opinion, but as of right now, he’s just as shitty at his job as the last guy who sucked at it. He spent the entire day getting played by Lakers and then he blew the pick.
Color me unimpressed.
Vanvleet’s a nice player & that’d probably be a nice outcome for Davion. However, I doubt he’ll be that good & he doesn’t fit well w/the Kings.
Obviously he has a lot of wheeling and dealing to do, there is no denying that.
But I don’t have to do a “ton of work” to defend the pick because shot creation is the most important skill in the NBA , and the guy plays tenacious defense so he checks two important boxes.
You are talking about a guy who impacts the game on both ends, you could NOT come up with 10 other guys who could make that kind of impact.
Of course the backcourt log jam is a problem. Not only does TD need to be matched and traded, Wright probably needs to go too.
I can understand the upset if you see this move in a vacuum, but that is not the proper view to take. This is step one of many steps to come.
Character is a hole on this roster.
absolutely, but you don’t need to spend the #9 pick to do it…I mean its like asset management doesn’t exist in Sac
Why not? Character, tenacity, temperament, toughness, whatever you want to call it… the Kings have not had it for a very long time. Folks here have been lamenting the Kings’ softness for years. Mitchell addresses this glaring weakness better than anybody else in the draft, if the scouting reports and the tape are to be believed. So why not spend the #9 pick to address your team’s (arguably) most glaring weakness, while also taking what many considered the best player available? It can’t be measured as easily as shooting percentage can, but one could argue it’s just as important when it comes to winning consistently at the highest level.
Character is a-hole on this roster
I knew he was an idiot when he somehow managed to get absolutely nothing for Bogi.
I can definitely say Davion Mitchell will have a longer career in the NBA than Bagley though I will tell you that much
Does longer career means anything ?
R. Evans also got long career……..
It will depend on how much impact he has on the teams he’s on but probably more impactful than Bagley once again.
That’s a low bar (though I’m not sure if Davion will go over it b/c I have questions about most aspects of his game).
absolutely pumped on this pick. don’t understand the hate at all.
We should have drafted Kispert afterall. You know why ð³
The adorable puppy highlight reels? I’d probably feel better about that than I do right now.
The Warriors made out like bandits.
I didn’t watch a minute of college basketball this year
i only know these names from looking at mock drafts
im gonna give monte the benefit of the doubt cause what the hell do I know? I’m just a guy who doesn’t get paid to know this stuff for a living.
but after doing my research which consisted of his 30 second highlight reel after he was drafted, I’m glad the kings have their Marcus Smart. I hope he comes in and does well. I also hope there’s some more moves coming.
Maybe Vlades co GM
Looks like nobody wants Bagley……
It’s almost like no other GM wants to pay him $11.5 million to show up to the arena in a suit for half a season, every season, and then have literally no impact when he does play, and then have his dad call out the front office and his teammates on social media.
Now Kings need to trade Hield, Delon Wright, and Bagley.
And Davis
This guy will be a star. Dame and Spida level star.
Can’t wait to see tomorrow’s draft grades.
At least it’s a Friday
The Ringer gave it a B, but they were as confused as the rest of us (they really like Mitchell as a player)
I think everyone likes Mitchell, but I don’t like the selection of him to the Kings at 9, it was a waste of value.
CBS gave it an A+
CBS gave everybody an A lol. For the most part he got good grades
I like Mitchell, but it just feels to me like the Kings lost ground in the West today. They fell further back from LA & GS, and teams like Hou and OKC are closing ground. Hopefully McNair still has something up his sleeve.
The Kings lose ground vs. the rest of the West in most offseasons.
There’s hopefully more to come but not completing the Buddy trade is a disappointment at the moment. Getting the perceived best available player is the right thought process.
Would the Knicks like Marvin Bagley for Kai Jones……maybe if we say pretty please?!?!
He’s being traded to Charlotte & I’m guessing they aren’t interested in trading him.
You’re probably right, now we have to try to get Isaiah Jackson.
Marvin for late 1st rounder + salary
He’s now going to the Wiz.
Disappointing. The Wizards stole him from us.
I would still like us to pursue a Buddy for THT trade with LAL.
THT is a RFA and isn’t anywhere in the ballpark of matching salary to trade for Buddy.
Well obviously there would have to be other players involved.
It is complicated if not impossible and may require a third team.
But the LAL interest in Buddy is not going to go away, is it?
In fact in adding a bricklayer in Westbrook, they need Buddy more than they did before the trade
LAL have no other players. Their roster is basically Lebron, AD, Westbrook, Gasol and the RFA rights to THT. They also don’t have any picks to trade. How would a third team be involved?
I haven’t look into it and like I said it may be impossible.
Yeah, they don’t have any salary to match Buddy.
Maybe it is for the best: 2 years of KCP and 3 years of Kuzma , two untradeable players.
I did not even want to do the deal unless we got the #21 and THT.
I put the over under at 30 games for James, Westbrook, and AD starting together.
They are the Nets of the West.
Well as usual the Kangz do themselves no favors. I’m not upset because let’s be honest this was a weak draft after pick 4. Will there be some surprises after that yes. Do I think this is one? No. If they honestly thought BPA that’s all I wanted. Do I think he is BPA? No. Do I know anything? No.
But I will say draft Jesus aka Sam Vecenie provides amazing coverage again with his live pod on YouTube and his reaction was classic. I do love his draft analysis but I also like how the guy doesn’t just shit on any team just because including the kings.
But he was and is floored where he was picked, not being his opinion of BPA and as he put it not the pick you want to have then try to trade guards at a premium. Basically everyone knows that you need to trade guards now.
But all in all if the guy stays plays hard, doesn’t take nights off and isn’t drama I’ll like the guy starter or not. The Kangz need heart and energy and if that’s why this happened then fuck it at least you’re trying something new. But I still have zero interest in giving any money to the Vivek experiment.
This was not a weak draft.
Could be totally right not my opinion. But sincerely who’s your surprise guys and or guys that made this a strong draft outside of the top 4.
IMO Suggs should be great, Kuminga could be great & Wagner should be good.
That’s a great point, actually.
So at least we know McNair is running the show… right?
Great pick. Ive said repeatedly I love the guy’s floor and he will be a player
Naturally leads into Fox for Simmons
Davion/Hali/Simmons Im about that
Trading Fox for Simmons doesn’t sound quite so crazy anymore. A Mitchell/Hali/Simmons lineup is intelligent, strong, exceptional on defense, and won’t take crap from anyone. It could fuel a complete identity transformation of this team, from “nice” but “soft” to “tough” and “a total pain in the butt to play against.” I just might be down with that. Fox + Buddy + future 1st for Simmons and filler as needed. Philly would have to consider that, and so should the Kings.
Mitchel is a defensive stud and I can imagine rotations that involve some combination of the three of Fox, Haliburton and Mitchel. Basically, always have a dual point guard unit on the floor… And if the Kings want to get better via trade, taking the best talent available is the right move.
if The Spurs picked Mitchell, he would be the steal of the draft.
ESPN interviewing Mitchell at the draft.
He seemed well spoken. I like what he had to say. Ready to get to work!
Casting my vote for Bassey or Edwards with #39
Elite defender, playmaker, leader. Don’t care what position he plays. Great pick.
I don’t like him, and I don’t want to cheer for him because he does not want to play in my hometown, so fuck him. I don’t care that we are the absolute shit hole of all basketball, and our team is a complete dumpster fire, it’s my dumpster fire, it’s our dumpster fire and we are the only ones allowed to be mean and shitty about our dumpster fire.
“Doctor, this is MY sucking chest wound. How dare you dislike it!”
I don’t know shit, but I like what I see in this guy’s highlight tape. Everyone’s talking about his defense, but he has legit handles. And he is quick as hell, there’s some fast-twitch muscle magic going on there. He looks like a good finisher too, despite the size. Plus, he’s just got the right mindset, seems like.
As for the lineup, I can see a lineup of him at PG, Fox at SG, Hali at SF, Barnes at PF. Kind of small ball, but I think the quickness and IQ of that lineup makes up for size, and they’ll be hard to cover. My money is on the over for # of wins this season! Hopes lives eternal, LOL.
I have no problem with him being older. He’ll just be that much closer to producing than if he was a skinny 19 year old. We won’t have to wait until some time in his 4th year to know if he’s worth keeping. Love that he’s defensive minded and hits 3s at a good rate. Welcome to Sacramento! Looking forward to seeing him on the 3rd.
the majority of you guys really don’t like this pick ? Lol .. the guys a stud and has won at every level … give me a break … I feel like some of you guys will never be pleased … it’s a new gym trying to sift thru an old gm’s shortcomings … not gonna be overnight .. he picked a rookie of the year candidate his first draft and I’ll bet you Davion will be one too .. give him time. I’ll know we’re all pissed bcuz of doncic and I am too but you got to give the some time.
They got two good defenders and a great two way player that plays with heart. Why don’t don’t we just enjoy it
I wanted Mitchell before the draft but was absolutely shocked in a good way when he was picked.
Didn’t think it was going to happen and pretty happy today.
