It might be past Rob's bedtime. Afterall, last midnight ET deadline, they sent Magic over to Bron's house. Rob was probably at home cozied up to the fire with a book.

A few brief, early post-draft thoughts:

Losers:

Wizards - traded for Bobby Portis who they'll no doubt feel compelled to re-sign then drafted chunky Bobby Portis in Rui Hachimura and then traded for Admiral Schofield (or Semi Ojeleye without defense) so they can go three deep on backup blackhole PFs who don't defend or pass.

Suns - one of the worst drafts I can think of in recent years and I don't dislike Saric, Johnson, or Jerome in a vacuum. But the Suns hemorrhaged draft assets to move a productive Warren and draft two athletically limited older prospects - both guys are older than Devin Booker - on guaranteed deals and earned the right to overpay Saric next summer.

Atlanta - the Hawks draft night wasn't disastrous, but they overpaid for and overdrafted two limited upside forwards in the top 10. The trade for Fernando may have been their best move of the night, but was also unnecessarily rich when they could've been patient and taken a better center at #8/10/17.

Spurs - Samanic and Johnson are fine, but underwhelming rotation caliber players to add to a mediocrity treadmill team that should've traded Kawhi to the Lakers and started to rebuild a year ago.

Winners:

Pelicans - clear top winners if they had drafted no one but Zion, but leveraging the Hawks overpay for Hayes and NAW was the well-executed flaming citrus to accent David Griffin's whiskey cocktail. Given how the draft shook out I had other players higher than NAW, but before the draft getting NAW at #17 would've been fine value on my board.

Grizzlies - I have deep concerns about Morant's shooting upside, but he's a young guy you can build your offense around while hoping for his shot to come. Getting Brandon Clarke at #21 was a master stroke both for pick value and fit - Memphis has two potential future DPOY candidates to protect Morant for the next 7-10 years.

Timberwolves - Saric on an expiring deal was worth sacrificing to move up for Culver who has the potential to bring a much-needed all-around game to a Minnesota team burdened by Wiggins' overpaid stagnation.

Pacers - added a productive bench scorer in Warren and three future 2nd round picks for cap space then drafted Bitadze - a top-10 talent and #2 center in this draft - at #18 allowing them to move on from Myles Turner while re-signing Sabonis. A quietly good night for Indiana.

Nuggets - they drafted my #2 upside pick at #44 for the cost of a future 2nd. Bol won't be able to ever start next to Jokic, but he's an incredible value play on a team that seems willing to draft smart risks with injury histories and let them develop. Bol is a big boom-bust player who the NBA (incorrectly) saw as having little boom to a lot of bust, but who I think will pay huge dividends for the Nuggets in time.

Lakers - for the cost of a future 2nd and cash they drafted my #15 prospect in THT at #46. Where they could've easily gone conservative, the front office instead took a big swing on one of the few young players in this draft with both two-way potential and initiatior upside.

Drafts I like but that are TBD:

Hornets - nothing sexy, but PJ Washington, Cody Martin, and Jalen McDaniels should all be productive NBA rotation players. I would've liked to see Kupchak take a bigger swing on upside talent, though.

Sixers - another low upside duo, but Thybulle and Shayock can both be rotation players for them next season.

Boston - big losers in the grand scheme of life, the Celtics managed to salvage two future productive winning players in Williams and Edwards who will probably be traded for Andrew Wiggins. Langford's a passable gamble, but there were better high upside picks on the board.

Cavs - I lean towards them being losers, but the chutzpah to take Garland intrigues me and KPJ is value at #30 even if he's a terrible fit on their current roster.

BVH....I think THT and Dort is the perfect example of the differences in the type of guys we prefer.

How so?

Yeah, disappointing. A ton of opportunity for UDFAs on a winning team.
