This is definitely the best draft of the past 10 years. There is elite talent at the top of the draft like Kyrie Irving (1st), Kemba Walker (9th) and Klay Thompson (11th). And there are some incredible players in the second round such as Bojan Bogdanovic (31st), Davis Bertans (42nd) and Isaiah Thomas (60th).
Not to mention, the undisputed best player in the draft and possibly the best player drafted in the last decade, Kawhi Leonard who fell all the way to 15th. As well as the last pick in the first round, Jimmy Butler, who has turned out to be a 4-time all-star and counting.
With that said this draft, just like all drafts, wasn’t perfect. Some of the biggest busts of this draft include Derrick Williams (2nd), Jan Vesely (6th), Bismack Biyombo (7th), Jimmer Fredette (10th) and Chris Singleton (18th).
Some other solid role players to come out of this draft include Brandon Knight (8th), Markieff and Marcus Morris (13th and 14th respectively), Nikola Vučević (16th), Tobias Harris (19th) and Cory Joseph (29th).
This draft had it all, elite talent at the top, significant depth in both rounds and generational talent in Kawhi Leonard. This draft could also have a potential five Hall of Famers come out of it which is pretty incredible.
