RJ Barrett

I've heard all of the over reactions to the New York Knicks not signing Kevin Durant or any max contract guy for that matter and I have to say I think they did really well. IF Durant never ruptured his Achilles I would feel very different but he did and when his Achilles popped so did the dreams of a quick rebuild for the Knicks. In the past this team would over react and sign the biggest name available and mortgage the future to appease the fans. These moves were measured, smart and made the team better.

The NBA Draft is behind us so it's time to grade who won and who lost and what players will go straight to the Hall Of Fame. It was no surprise that Duke's Zion Williamson went number one overall to the New Orleans Pelicans and it's no surprise he's the favorite to win the top rookie honors this coming season.

The 2019 NBA Lottery is over and the Pelicans have landed the number one pick and Duke phenom Zion Williamson. The Knicks, Cavaliers and Suns all had a 14% chance at the top pick and the top ten picks are now set.
