that would be difference of getting these players, taken 14th or later but before 21st, or not getting them b/c they were picked before:
'18-- Michael Porter Jr, DiVicenzo, Huerter
'19-- NAW, Thybulle
'20-- Cole Anthony, Saadiq Bey, Precious Achiuwa
'21-- Moody, Kispert, Sengun, Trey Murphy, Tre Mann
'22-- Mark Williams, Tari Eason, Malaki Branham
'23-- Hawkins, Keyonte George, Jaquez, Podziemski, Whitmore

all of these dudes wouldn't have been available at 21, but would have been at 14... so yeah, there is a difference between 14 and 21

That's all true. At the same time this is like a historically weak draft. Probably less of a difference than ever between 14 and 21. Still would rather 14 though
