Kings gonna Kings
What an awful pick
Better than the Wagner pick. Shoots 44% from 3pt, Good defender, Winner..
Wagner is a better defender than Mitchell and positionally fits in Orlando, unlike Mitchell in Sacramento
Yeah. IDk. Just feel like you should take a player with more upside/talent at #7 overall.
Why does Wagner have low upside? He’s a good shooter and passer as well as being an elite defender. Suggs, Isaac and Wagner are a fearsome defensive trio
Wagner shot 34% from 3pt. Only grabbed 6 boards a game in 32mins of play. 12ppg... decent height at 6’9”, but doesn’t look to have a big wingspan, average athleticism.
I do not understand the Wagner pick either.
He would've been a fine mid first rounder but mid lottery at #7? Way too high for such a limited player.
He is an alright glue guy. Not enough high end skill (shooting, ball-handling, passing, shot-creation) or high end athleticism to justify taking him so early.
I see him as a role player in the NBA and I would not be surprised if he ends up as a bench player.
Jumps out as one of those guys who benefited from playing lower level size / athletes in college and on an extremely well-coached NCAA team that worked to his strengths in a way that NBA teams are unlikely to do as they are more obsessed with helio-centric offenses which will hurt Wagner.
