Rui Hachimura - 2019 NBA Draft Prospect

Would love him on the Spurs but expect to be disappointed...no way he’s available at 19

I think Rui might fall in the draft. Not sure if to 19, but it seems a lot of other players have gained hype will his went down

Minny's 11th and covington/dieng for 19+demar

I don't think that Minny would do that. And I don't think PATFO has the boldness to offer it. But we can dream for another 9-10 hours. I would even throw in 29 to get it done.

Honestly, Spurs fans' opinions on this draft are all over the place. No matter what happens, some of us will be happy.

Starting to look like Rui to Hornets at 12, tbh.

Some draft experts had him going in the late 20s citing bad defense. What were they smoking?

It's terrible. It's webrook-like. It's the kind of shit defense people get angry at Rudy and Derozan and Harden. That's something to dread having on your team when the game has sped up and the opposing best players are typically wings.

Yeah, missing out on Rui isn't the end of the world. He's pretty old for a prospect, kinda one-dimensional and doesn't do anything all that well besides scoring. Three-point shooting, passing, defense...non-existent. Rebounding is nowhere near Kawhi level. He's a good candidate for bust of the draft.

Damn, we're comparing him to Westbrook, Prime Rudy, Derozan and Harden? Wiz drafted him at 9. That ain't too bad

That he went top ten was a bit of a surprise, tbh. I don't remember one mock draft having him top ten. Many didn't have him top fifteen.

Too bad we didn't go for it, now with having Johnson it would have make giving up Walker very easy, Johnson is better prospect at same position...

Agreed. If he's available at @ 19th, you take him but if you're gonna give up too much just to move up in the draft, it's not worth it.
