He played three games in the past calendar year, but it wasn't due to injury. Usually if a player has so little public exposure, it's because he got banged up.
I agree with you that he is the real prize. Golden State lucked out by being #2, and moreso lucky that the T-Wolves are one team that can't add another center. The possibilities for the Warriors is mind-blowing considering their front office and ownership have shown they will do anything to win in the present window.

They're the favorites next year if they draft Wiseman. Their 4th best player next season could be a 20PPG scoring Andrew Wiggins who won't have to do shit but score which is right up his alley. Wiseman would take such a load off of Draymond and allow him to play more of the Point Forward role and focus less on being the primary big. Won't cost them anything to just turn in the card.
I'm already pissed off because I can already hear people saying that Wiseman wouldn't be this good if he was drafted by any other team and he's only one of the best bigs in the league because he's playing for GSW. I'm sick of it already.

This is the time of year where you learn who really has sources and who doesn’t.
So many National and local guys saying the Cavs top two are Deni and Toppin. It’scertain one of the two will be there and there’s a decent chance both could be.
I wouldn’t assume anything until the pick is made though. The way info spreads and solidifies is interesting and it could be pure guesswork that others latch onto and repeat. It could be disinformation out out by the team. Or by another team. It could be old info that was once true but that has changed after workouts and interviews. Or it could be solid info from a well positioned source.
We’ll find out in two days

I've really warmed up to Devin Vassell after watching some more tape, how come the buzz on him has been so quiet?
He seems to have a lot more off the bounce game than given credit for and if he can continue developing that, his 3&D reputation could be shed pretty quickly... Regardless, even if he is a 3&D player, he's pretty efficient and pretty good at that... But given his skillset, size, length, age and character, I'm surprised he hasn't gotten more consideration as the best all-around wing in this draft..
I really do like that Khris Middleton comparison...

One thing people freaked out about 6 weeks ago was this 2 minute long video of him shooting these crazy high release jump shots. Video got taken down within a few hours and subsequently it was said he was just goofing around after a workout with a friend but a lot of people freaked out that that was his new shooting motion.

I like Vassell a lot but he seems like the safe pick to me. He will be a solid pro in the vein of a Shane Battier but I am not sure he has the raw upside of someone like Poku, Okoro, or even Pat Williams.
