Harry rose to the second place! US media re-arranged 20th rookies: Only the Warriors are missing out on the top 3 + the Rockets get a hole in the second round

Halliburton soared to the second place! As the season enters the finals, the US media "Hopshype" has also re-arranged the 20th rookies based on the latest performance. Among them, only the Warriors misunderstood the top 3, while the Rockets have used their usual good vision to complete the second round of the game.

No. 1 pick: Edwards (formerly No. 1 pick)

Data: 23.9 points, 5.3 rebounds, 4.2 assists

There is no doubt that the No. 1 pick is still the position of Edwards. Even if he failed to lead the team to the finals, Edwards' growth this season is still visible.

He is growing from a retro double-energy guard when he first entered the league to a modern double-energy guard in line with the small ball era. With a per game three-point shooting soaring to 10.3 times, his shooting percentage has also increased to 39.5%.

The most important thing is that Edwards is the real leader of the Timberwolves, and is an absolute ball-holding and stable All-Star player, and is gradually becoming the leader of the next generation of stars in the United States.

No. 1: Halliburton (formerly No. 12 pick)

Data: 17.5 points, 3.7 rebounds, 8.8 assists

Before the start of this season, Halliburton was completely unworthy of this position. Even before the start of the playoffs, he was voted as the "most overrated player" in the secret ballot of the league.

As a result, Halliburton scored five hits in the playoffs, surpassing Allen to create the first place in history, and leading the Pacers to the finals.

However, Halliburton is not a high-yield ball-holding core, but a top ball-handler and passer, which also leads to his low ceiling and has also lost the MVP of the Eastern Conference Finals. In the future, it is necessary to continue to develop offenses to truly enter the ranks of superstars.

Tanhua: Maxi (formerly No. 21 pick)

Data: 19.5 points, 3 rebounds, 4.4 assists

Maxi is another player with a significantly improved ranking. He is in the 76ers team trying to compete for the championship, but it has not affected Maxi's growth rate.

On the contrary, Harden's joining has further transformed to a certain extent. The 24-year-old Maxi has grown into an All-Star player, and has a better upper limit on hard talent.

Considering Embiid's injury problems and George's age, Maxi is expected to play a bigger role in the future. The remaining rankings of the lottery area are as follows (the original ranking is in brackets)

4-10: Three Balls (3), Bain (30), McDan (28), Avdia (9), Quickley (25), Prichard (26) and Vassel (11);

11-14: Okonggu (6), Cole Anthony (15), Nesmith (14) and Isaiah Gio (49).

The Warriors are just missing out on the top three

In addition to the changes in the lottery rankings, another player worthy of attention is Wiseman. As the Warriors' selected Tanhualang, Wiseman was once highly expected by Golden State and is a representative figure of the "double-line parallel" strategy of the Warriors' management.

As a result, his performance was extremely disappointing. The poor ball maker made it impossible for him to integrate into Cole's complex passing and cutting system. He only had a top talent but was unable to fulfill it for a long time.

After leaving the Warriors, he went to multiple teams and was expected to play a reliable blue-collar insider in the Pacers. As a result, his injury caused his season reimbursement and missed the opportunity to help the team reach the finals.

The Rockets picked up a gap in the second round

Before Harden left the team, the Rockets refused to play badly for 20 consecutive years, which made the team's management very good at Taobao in the second round. The same is true for the 20th draft. With no draft pick in hand, the Rockets won the No. 52 pick from the Kings through a trade.

As the son of Martin, Martin Jr. also has exaggerated athletic and physical talents, and grew rapidly in the years when the Rockets were in a bad position. Then he brought back two second-round picks for the Rockets in a 23-year trade with the Clippers.
