Why does nba.com list J. Hood-Schifino at 6-4 but then in their analysis call him a 'big point guard, standing at 6-foot-6'? Weak. Anyway, I am not sure about the pick considering that the Lakers need to get better ASAP. Seems like a pick for the post-Lebron future, I guess.
I was really hoping they would take Jaime Jacquez Jr. I think he's an instant contributor and would have fit Leborn's timeline. Plus he would have been an instant crowd favorite. I guess the Heat thought so too and picked him up 1 spot later.
Yes, that was my first thought too seeing Jacquez Jr. at the 18 spot. I thought maybe I was biased because of UCLA affiliation but either way he's seasoned as hell compared to all these one and done players. I feel like Miami picked him for just that reason, and I have no doubt he'll give them valuable minutes during their 2024 playoff run.
