Moody falls to the Warriors. Probably won’t be in Oakland for long tbh.

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.

He’s got a 7-foot wingspan and uses it to his advantage to hound wings on defense.  This sounds like you’ve watched him play for 10 minutes.

Agreed

He'll turn up and realise that the Warriors moved to San Francisco haha

Sorry, I couldn't help myself. Good pick-up for them at 14.
5' 10" former point guard

Career highlight: 1973-74 championship, Boston Celtics

Career lowlight: traded for a washing machine

Moody is a hell of a player.

Wish Woj would have let me know earlier of Warrior interest in Moody. I wouldn’t have predicted he’d go 16th in the contest.

Dang

I saw him play a few games. Thought he looked decent, but wasn’t super impressed. Not sure  his game will translate well at the NBA level. Guess we will find out...

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

Yup. More picks lol.

If no further protection is added, the picks are:

Detroit 2022 (top 16 protected; top 18 in '23 and '24, top 9 in 2026, top 7 in 2026)

Washington 2023 (top 14 protected; top 12 in '24, top 10 in '25, top 8 in '26).

In both cases, if not conveyed, they convert to two seconds.

The Thunder didn’t have enough firsts in the future.  Good trade for them. ::)
