Poole soars to 5th! US media re-arranges the 19th NBA draft: Zion loses the No. 1 pick + loses the draft counterattack

Poole soared to 5th! As the 25th Draft is approaching, the US media "Hopshype" re-scheduled the 19th NBA draft, with Zion losing the No. 1 pick and several players lost the draft to complete a counterattack.

No. 1: Morant (formerly second place)

Data: 22.6 points, 4.7 rebounds, 7.4 assists

In the 19th draft, Zion was the undisputed No. 1 pick, and he was regarded as the next American superstar who was enough to compete with James.

This led to Morant being underestimated that year. As his career progressed, Morant quickly realized his talent and firmly ranked first in the Grizzlies. He once won MVP votes for two consecutive years and was regarded as one of the strong contenders for the new NBA generation.

Helplessly, the NBA's strong support did not transform Morant, but instead made him lose and make mistakes off the court. In the past two seasons, he has only played 59 games in total due to various factors such as suspension and injury. Even so, Morant is still the best player in the 19th class, but his lead is already tiny.

No. 2: Garland (formerly No. 5 pick)

Data: 18.9 points, 2.7 rebounds, 6.7 assists

Unlike explosive guards like Morant, Garland is a technical guard with a basic hard talent not top-notch, but has comprehensive scoring methods, excellent passing vision and extremely creative organizational ability.

Most importantly, Garland has made a strong self-provement in the past two seasons and has become a reliable All-Star guard. The Cavaliers have also grown into one of the top teams in the regular season under his leadership.

Even though he suffered from injuries and performed lower than expected in the playoffs, he is still one of the best players in the East and deserves the second place.

Tanhua: Zion (formerly No. 1 pick)

Data: 24.7 points, 6.6 rebounds, 4.3 assists

Zion has historical talent. Of course, when he plays steadily, he is one of the best power forwards in the service and has the potential to become a superstar.

Helplessly, Zion has been unable to maintain health so far in his career. His attendance rate is less than 50% in six seasons, including more than 30 games in only 2 seasons, and one season is directly and completely reimbursed.

Therefore, the Pelicans have had enough of Zion and are considering sending his trade away for the first time. If Zion still cannot complete the weight loss, the big contract he currently bears will also be transformed into insured.

4th pick: Xiro (formerly No. 13)

Data: 19.4 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists

"When you don't know who to choose No. 13, it's definitely right to choose a shooting guard." The value of this sentence is still increasing.

Although Herro cannot be compared with Kobe, Mitchell and Booker, who are also No. 13 picks, Herro has also grown into a quasi-All-star defender and is also a stable 20+ scorer.

However, after Butler left the team, Hero exposed his shortcomings in the lack of quality of the stars, but the fourth position was not controversial.

5th pick: Poole (formerly No. 28)

Data: 16.8 points, 2.7 rebounds, 3.8 assists

Poole is a player with a very similar style to Hero. He relies on three-point shooting on the offensive end, has obvious shortcomings on the defensive end, has scoring output, but the overall efficiency is not good.

As a No. 28 pick, the Warriors' selection was obviously a huge bargain, and Poole also played a big role during the Warriors' 21-22 season.

Helplessly, Poole and Zhu Meng fought over conflicts such as contract renewal, which ultimately forced the Warriors to let Poole go. Good news After a season of ups and downs, Poole achieved his best performance in his career this season.

The rest of the rankings are as follows (the original pick in brackets)

6-10: Barrett (Tanhua), Dort (undrafted), Cameron Johnson (11), Naz Reed (undrafted) and Kobe White (7);

It is not difficult to see from this level that although some top stars in the 19th class failed to meet expectations, many undrafts, including Dort and Naz Reed, completed a major counterattack.

11-20: Hunter (4), Kelden Johnson (29), Gafford (38), PJ Washington (12), Clarkston (31), Hachimura (9), Clark (21), Struce (undrack), Walker (17) and Jerome (24);

21-30: Porter Jr. (30), Terenceman (48), Martin (undrack), Bitazze (18), Holden Tucker (46), Seble (20), Gway (22), Hayes (8), Coffey (undrack) and Reddish (10).
