I can’t get too annoyed about this when JDub was never considered a locked top 10 pick.

Probably unpopular take but I’m more annoyed about us taking Hawkins over guys like Whitmore and Podz. I think Willie would have played these two more than Hawkins in the second half of the season.

Hawkins being an oldish college player who can’t get on the floor for us is not good

I don’t necessarily think it’s a good idea to draft based on your current coach’s philosophy just because the turnover there is so high and you can miss out on really talented players.

I think Hawk was the right pick and has clear 3-level scoring ability in ways the other two don’t. Now it’s on the front office and coaching staff, regardless of their player philosophy, to develop that talent into the most effective player possible for where you want to go.
