Hield was my favorite player…he would’ve been better than Bender/Chriss, but he’s not exactly tearing it up. Outside the top 3, best picks were Murray at 7, Sabonis at 11, then Siakam at 27 and Dejounte Murray at 29.
Simmons was great for about 3 years. Ingram and Brown are good, though also not super stars. I guess Jaylen Brown is the best player from the draft? Maybe Siakam?

Bender gave us the KeBENDERant 35 joke, which is about as much as we could have come away with from that draft.
