WHAT HAPPENED to the 13 Players Drafted Before Michael Porter Jr?

Спорт

Despite falling to 14th Overall, Michael Porter Jr was selected to an a great situation in Denver, led by Nikola Jokic. MPJ made quick impact, proving to be an undeniable offensive weapon for the champion Nuggets squad. But back in 2018, why were 13 Players Considered Better Prospects than him?

    And to think that Jalen Brunson was drafted at 33rd is insane that boy is balling. Great draft that year a lot of busts yet a lot of allstar calibre players and mabye a future GOAT. Great video keep them coming.

    Good video. Miles bridges was suspended for an entire season and then was also suspended for 30 games this season to clarify. “As a result of the charges and sentencing, the NBA issued a 30-game suspension without pay for Bridges. The league said that 20 of the games were already considered served, as Bridges had missed the entirety of the 2022-23 season.”

    Mpj was huge in high school, was projected to be the #1 pick. If he didnt get hurt, and went #1 or 2, he would have been labeled a bust. He does not seem to have a shot even as a all star as a reserve. Without jokic he wont have that many 3 point opportunities.

    ​​​​​@@wl6020 he's not nearly as athletic or mobile as he used to be. Compare his movements & dunking from 2020 to now & even further in high school. His movement is slowly coming back, but not the same yet. How does his back not affect his play? His body was stiff for a long time & had to be cautious of athletic plays. How is that not affecting his play? His back injury caused foot drop in his left foot, so he's wearing a brace. Again..how is that not affecting his play? You don't have to read an article to notice the difference. He even admitted himself, his body isn't the same yet. Murray was not an all star, because the guard position is more stacked. Lauri Markannen didn't look like an all star either.

    I mean the dude just averaged 23 and 10 against the Lakers on insane shooting splits, ain't not other 3rd option doing what he done in that series. regardless of the attention Jokic gets he is 6'10 and an ELITE shooter like it's not even close when it comes to his efficiency.
