Space City Scoop

● By James Piercey
In any NBA draft, there is guesswork involved. This year, the draft's order is anybody's guess. Think about the 2023 draft. If the Spurs had selected anyone other than Victor Wembanyama, the earth would have stopped spinning on its axis. Scoot Henderson, Brandon Miller, and Amen Thompson were widely expected to round out the top 4. This upcoming draft is considered weaker. As a result, it's more subjective. Teams will be able to justify reaching for prospects without clear-cut superstars in the picture.
