🏀 NBA Draft: Primo to Spurs, Herb to Pelicans...

[Brandon Van de Graaff]

Lottery pick, which is awesome for him and awesome for recruiting...

I had zero clue the Draft was tonight. Saw he was drafted on Instagram 2 minutes ago and looked it up. Good for him. I felt he needed another year, but glad the lottery pick will pay him well.

I thought Herb might get a 1st round nod, but I haven’t kept up with any of the pre-draft coverage, etc…. Tennessee had 2 first rounders.

Herb Jones just got taken as the 5th pick in the second round. He's going to the Pelicans.

I was a little surprised, pleasantly surprised, that not only was Primo drafted this highly, but also that he was drafted well before Cam Thomas. That kid out of the barn still hasn't been taken yet.

Congratulations to Primo. Would have loved to see him another year at Bama for selfish reasons but no way to blame him for making this move. It definitely paid off.

Congrats to both the guys

Yes congrats to both. But congrats big time to Jones. Hard work, discipline paid off.

Can someone remind me about last season and how often I heard about Watford, and Cooper for that matter, being sure fire first round picks.

Did Watford enter the draft?

Did Watford enter the draft?

Cam Thomas, Jevonte Smart, and Watford entered this year's draft: only Thomas was drafted. All three signed, the latter two as undrafted free agents.

I'm happy for both and surprised Primo went that high.

The Tide has a player drafted before KY two years in a row.

Awesome to see Primo's video also. Good luck to both. Go get paid...

It might be a long shot but there is a chance that Jones might start his career off playing for the Birmingham Squadron (Pelican's G-League affiliate), which would be pretty cool and I would bet a good draw for them in year one.
