That's fair, but I'd think someone would love his ability to get to the rim on their second unit

Also the Denver trade is kinda decent for us. Really good trade from Griff and gang.

Welp draft has concluded. On to undrafted free agents and then free agency.
Updated OP with some useful Kira links for those who want to learn more about his game and there's a summary of our picks in there too

Anyone know if there’s going to be a post draft press conference?
Posted on 11/18/20 at 11:18 pm to kadillak
Pelicans twitter posted a stat that Kira had the highest amount of points from pick and roll plays in the SEC. Seems like a guy who fits the chemistry of the team

Here's the stat you are referring to. Kira/Zion and Kira/Jax pick and rolls are going to be fun.

Uhh did we pick at 60? Or was that traded as well?
Posted on 11/18/20 at 11:30 pm to JayJay2
Pick 60 was traded to Milwaukee as part of the Jrue deal
Also Griff is addressing the media right now

Griff says they have some other trade conversations going on. Can't address the Jrue stuff yet.

Yeah you have to imagine that a guard is on the way out. Can't wait to see what happens these next few days.
I made this comparison in a thread a good while back. Similar frame and strengths. IMO, he's a less explosive Fox, but with a much better potential ability to play off the ball as a shooter.
Also noteworthy:
Trajan also emphasized that his strategy is to always draft best player available.

Trajan says the scouting group has compared Kira to De'Aaron Fox. Says Kira is good at navigating screens on defense and will make an impact on both sides of the ball

I figured he’d be with the pels more than the g league

Sounds like he’s just saying that to cover his basis in case Lewis absolutely falls apart like NAW in the regular season. He sounds pretty confident Lewis will be in the rotation.

Langdon pretty much confirms that they wouldn’t have taken Halliburton over Lewis if both guys were available based on their draft strategy.

I mean even if that wasn’t the case, we’ll likely never know.

What happens to the Denver pick if it falls in the lottery?

Can confirm Pelicans adding Xavier forward Naji Marshall on a two-way deal.
Averaged 16.8/6.3/4.0a last season. Was one of @DraftExpress’ top undrafted players.
