I think he will only improve from long range, as he did at ISU. And he is definitely more than a competent enough rebounder for the NBA. Would also venture he still has the capacity to get even stronger, especially given his work ethic. He is capable of playing a Draymond Green type of game (minus the technicals) if necessary. Congratulations Joshua!
Comes out of the cheap seats and walks past the special invites to claim his first round draft pick reward. If that doesn't scream TJ/Iowa State, I don't know what does.
What was the most recent consensus projection for J-Jeff's draft position? I haven't checked any of those for at least a month, the latest I remember he was like mid-30s to low-40s.
Happy for J Jeff but I just do not care about the NBA enough to pay for League Pass...plus I am a Wolves fan so I was excited for like 10 minutes before he was traded lol.
If you have a draftkings account, they usually have a promo towards the beginning of the season where you can bet a certain amount of money and get it for free.
This was great to see after what happened in the NCAA's. He'll make a ISU proud.
First pick in the second round. Happy they were off by a few.
Vegas will have an NBA team in 2 years. Maybe he and Keeshon can be the hometown heros.

Brooklyn is probably a great scenario to go late 1st round. It's going to be tough to crack the roster on some of these contenders. I imagine in Brooklyn they'll give everyone some run to see if they can build a contender.
Most had him taken in the last 3 to 5 picks of the first round to the first 3 to 5 picks in the 2nd. So about where most had him projected.
Here’s the real skinny - Wolves drafted him because the Nets WANTED him! He is right where he is needed. Org has Randle- who better to model him after? Great for JJ!
Not a bad spot for JJ, he'll get PT during his rookie contract and can hopefully get a deal with a better team in a couple of years.
The Big 12 having 9 first rounders from 7 different teams is crazy.

I can't believe that they can't get this deal corrected and give em the right damn hat.
The Athletic just posted their 2nd round picks and do not have TL taken in the 2nd round. I would guess if that occurs he will have a great chance of getting picked up by a team to fill out their summer league team and if he shows enough, get an invite to fall camp.
Yeah the whole thing seemed really silly. Like when the NFL makes a trade on draft day, they just switched everything really quick and get the guy the right hat, we know who is picking. NBA does this weird thing where they make the other team draft, give them the wrong hat, do all that stuff. Just switched it. It's really dumb. Then like ten picks later they announce the trade.
It's not the biggest deal in the world, but it's JJs biggest day ever, up to now anyway, and everyone knows who drafted him and where he's going, but there he is with some other teams cap on!
At least he pointed it high so you can't even really tell when he's standing with the commish. It's far worse early on when they give em a jersey (if they still do that, I wasn't even watching other than JJ.)
