2025 NBA Draft Thread

How disappointed are people going to be if BOS trades back for pick 51 (for example) and 2 seconds in 2033 or something like that?

Wow, way more than even my hot take.  BOS is looking for 2-way players.  Hugo to Spain and 2nders for 2-way slots.  It looks to me that BOS did not see these players as ready as some on here thought.

Hugo is looking like a pretty good pick right about now. I suppose the assumption was he would be a draft and stash but instead he came over to Boston right away. He is showing some flashes of potential with the big team. I'm also surprised he didn't stay in Spain or end up in Maine.

I sort of thought Hugo would mostly be on the Celtics this year, they had a ton of wing minutes with Tatum out and no LOCKS to be in the rotation. The fact that Walsh has emerged as a starting level wing and Hugo is still finding ways to get minutes as a 19 year old is impressive. It helps that they've started using the small-ball Minott at center lineups instead of Garza, opens up time for Hugo.
