NBA Draft Takeaways, Steals, and Zach Edey

Verno and KOC recap the 2024 NBA draft, as they discuss picks they liked, picks they disliked, surprises, and more! They start off by discussing Zach Edey’s fit with the Grizzlies, the one big difference maker for Ron Holland’s development with the Pistons, and the importance of situation, fit, and opportunity for younger players entering the league (01:12). Next, they discuss why the Hornets taking Tidjane Salaun at no. 6 led to the Spurs trading away Rob Dillingham, Dalton Knecht’s surprising fall to the Lakers at no. 17, why Buck fans should be pissed, and the increasing value of international prospects (25:05). Also, which second-round picks have the best chance to succeed, as well as the best-case scenario for Bronny James, who was selected by the Lakers and is now teammates with his dad (50:30).
