Yep and the fact that Pau is at the end of his career.  It might not be this year but by next season Portis will get his minutes.

He's still under contract for 2 more.


Utah takes Olivier Hanlan from BC.   Too many guards taken tonight by them.  Logjam in the front court.

Joseph Young , SG out of Oregon goes to Indiana at #43
No cause, ever, in the history of all mankind, has produced more cold-blooded tyrants, more slaughtered innocents, and more orphans than socialism with power. It surpassed, exponentially, all other systems of production in turning out the dead. The bodies are all around us. And here is the problem: No one talks about them. No one honors them. No one does penance for them. No one has committed suicide for having been an apologist for those who did this to them. No one pays for them. No one is hunted down to account for them. It is exactly what Solzhenitsyn foresaw in The Gulag Archipelago: "No, no one would have to answer. No one would be looked into." Until that happens, there is no "after socialism."

The Phoenix Suns select Andrew Harrison, PG- Kentucky, at 44.

He might be under contract for two more years but that doesn't mean anything.  If Portis can develop this year and get a little stronger you never know he might beat out Pau for more minutes.

The Bucks take Norman Powell, SG from UCLA at 46

Arturas Gudaitis - C- Lithuania goes at 47   to the Sixers

Pau was an extremely productive player.    This reminds me of 'Mallett is going to displace Tom Brady' stuff that we saw for a few years.

He's not backing out of the league right now.

57th pick, which I skipped was   Nikola Radicevic to the Nuggets

The Hawks take Dmitrios Agravanis  at 59.

The Sixers close out the draft by taking Luka Mitrovic at 60

Kentucky ties its own 2012 record for 6 players taken in a 60 pick draft.  They tie their own record of 4 in the first 14 picks as well.

No other team has had 6 players taken in any draft of less than 138 picks

Poor Michael Qualls  :'(

Oh - I know.
Heartbreaking - he's just got to keep his head up, rehab that knee and then I guess go overseas next year or D league and work his way in.

Maybe if he went 38 instead of 18.

He's a rotation player, sure.   He's a good value, sure.  This isn't the Joe Dumars level value at 18-- at absolute best,  he's a BJ Armstrong type of slot value.
