Ready to get unreasonably annoyed when Dallas doesn't even contemplate taking an Arkansas guy with either pick.

Their picks don't line up with their general placement on big boards I've seen, but still.

My DVR died shortly after I started watching games and then college was cancelled so it did not happen for me this year.

Based on players I saw:

1. Josh Green

5. Trey Jones

Good enough for me

Super athletic, young, and strong combo forward. Looks like a tight end. He was coming off the bench and was on a team where no one really gets to shine a ton on offense but he is as ultra productive when he did play and flashes a lot on both ends, though his lateral agility needs some work. Also showed a decent bit of playmaking and shooting at lower levels. I think this is kind of high but I don't hate it, he could potentially be a legit stretch 4 or even small ball 5 for some stretches which is a pretty valuable archetype

With good strength & conditioning he could increase his mobility and in a genuine and not half rear end way defend 1-5, and that's the coolest thing you can do, in my opinion

His athleticism doesn't set him apart from German league players, is why I'm down on him. Maybe his special passing makes up for it.

Like I don’t get it. Did he have a serious health issue earlier in his life?

He's inbred dude. His mom and dad are siblings. He's seriously ill. He has a rabbit's heart and a crocodile's heart working in tandem. His bones were replaced with 1 mm in diameter wooden dowels.

I don't think he's super explosive but I think it's kind of like Harden/Luka (though not that good obvs) when the strength, draft, and ability to change speeds makes up for it. He really never has trouble getting where he wants to go.

You're probably right, and his left hand is potent, but he wears glasses! Like a nerd!
