**The Official 2025 NBA Draft Day Thread**

[baseline bum]

Damn was hoping they'd take Queen. Oh well.

[BatManu20]

Wait, so they just drafted a Center and traded for a Center..?

[LeBowen]

Would've been nice, but we're still talking about a backup big.

[mystargtr34]

So the Suns traded for Mark Williams AND drafted Maluach?

[couchman]

Darn was starting to hope Maluach would fall to us

[spurraider21]

suns just traded for mark williams AND selected malauch at 10? has to be a trade incoming, right?

[Biggems]

Is he the next Mutombo.....on and off the court?

[Uriel]

Ah well. It was too good to be true.

[Dex]

Suns about to us with the pick they got for sending out Durant.

Called it.

[Mr. Body]

Suns have a nice big rotation... or they picked Maluach to trade.

[baseline bum]

With Jaku still on the board all of a sudden doesn't look like a given that Portland takes Carter Bryant

[vy65]

Da fuq?

[Degoat]

Dumbass franchise drafting and trading for the same player lol

[Seventyniner]

I wouldn't assume the Suns are keeping Maluach. They just traded for Mark Williams and were rumored to be active in the trade market for this #10 pick.

[Blizzardwizard]

all those draft insiders pushing the 'SAS want to move up to get maluach' line for weeks forgot about the irrepressible power of WE LIKE WHAT WE HAVE

[CGD]

Portland seems like a Carter Bryant home.

[couchman]

I’m still 100% onboard with Sorber if his foot passes our docs

[Uriel]

Maluach, a Duke player, gives a hug to Scheyer, Duke coach and former Duke player, to shake hands with Silver, a Duke alum.

[scott]

Thought that seemed like a crazy high price for Mark Williams, but that 2029 pick is the worst of CLE/UTA/MIN

[Mr. Body]

Who does Charlotte have for bigs?

[Eaglenole2002]

So is Nick Richards worth anything from Phoenix?

[LeBowen]

Idk what are you guys upset about, there was no way Maluach was making it past Hawks and Bulls that both need a rim protector.

[spursistan]

let's be honest Maluach was never dropping all the way to 14..

[vy65]

Coward
Bryant
Jaku
Essengue
Newell

We get one of those, right?

[Dejounte]

Wasnt big on maluach so kinda glad hes off the board
