7. Mario Hezonja - SG, Croatia
8. Frank Kaminsky III - C, Wisconsin
9. Devin Booker - SG, Kentucky

Minnesota selected first pick overall Karl-Anthony Towns, centre from University of Kentucky. A 6'11" freshmen.

Knicks fans reaction to their pick was pretty hilarious. Porzingis is ridiculously thin right now.

Wish the Raps move up to take Winslow.

Edit - Heat take him at 10

Thank god for the NBA draft. Relieving some of this built up anticipation for the NHL draft tomorrow. Who do the Raps take? Some weird out of nowhere kid?

Raptors trade Vasquez to the Bucks for a 2017 1st and pick 46.

According to the score, to Bucks for future 1st and number 46. I have no problem with this. Vazquez really wasn't good this year. I didn't see him rebounding next year so it's decent value.

That's a pretty nice trade for Vasquez, Masai working his magic again. Come on Dekker or Hunter fall to 20.

Damn, not a lot of centre left for the Raptors. They definitely a big man in the lineup to split time with JV.

Another forward is a bigger need. Terence Ross blows. He needs to be replaced.

I have seen Sam Dekker played for Wisconsin this past season. Him and Kaminski were pretty good. I don't mind the Raptors picking him if he is still available as #20.

It's Masai, he'll probably take someone waaaay off the board.
