2025 NBA Draft winners and losers of the second round: Rasheer Fleming prizes, stupidity and money

4

Our Dan Devine analyzed the winners and losers of the first round of the draft of the NBA on Wednesday impeccable, and I am here to clean up the rest, presenting the winners and unreachable losers of the second round of the draft …

Winner: Rasheer Fleming, St. Joseph’s

Fleming waited all night to hear his name in the first round and no. Still, having to wait, has become the main focus of the second night of the draft. According to Shams Charania by Espn, the Boston Celtics-Prvisists to select according to Thursday and n. 32 In total-they intended to take Fleming, but the Phoenix Suns had other plans, exchanging three choices of the second round for the right to draw up the Junior of St. Joseph.

In other words, the opening moments of night 2 of the draft became the rasheer flexing premiums:

Fleming is a long and athletic forward for his spo-up shooting skills and defensive energy. It seems to me a 3-and wing. He was the only player in the country last season to convert at least 40 crushed and 50 3 pointers, according to Espn’s Jay Bilas. Furthermore, it does not lack confidence.

When he was asked what he intended to bring to the alone, Fleming said to Monica McNutt of Espn: “Regardless of the fact that something goes wrong, if I’m not doing shots, which I don’t do, you efforts you very much.”

Announcement

Which I don’t do. Dill, Rasheer.

Loser: the minnesota Timberwolves

It seems that the manager of the wolves Tim Connelly was not happy with how those lotteries competitions came out:

Loser: “to the clock”

Nobody knows who is on the clock, unless you are a certified genius.

While the Deputy Commissioner of the NBA, Mark Tatum, proclaimed that the Minnesota Timberwolves were making Fleming with the first choice of the second night of the draft, the ESPN guests had to remember repeatedly that the wolves were not actually taking. They were the Suns, who had just mistaken to select it.

And then Espn had to lead his interview with Fleming in a Timberwolves hat. It makes no sense.

And this was the case all night. It seemed that everyone except the viewer knew in advance that a team was selecting instead of another, so why can’t Tatum simply tell us that the actual team will take a player?

Announcement

And why can’t they wear the hat right? Do they also need a hat? It only makes it more confused.

Winner: cash

Over a couple of hours, the Los Angeles Lakers exchanged choice n. 55 and in cash for the Chicago Bulls for choice n. 45, and then the Lakers exchanged choice n. 45 and in cash for the Timberwolves for n. 36.

In other words, everything that took was a little money to go up to the bottom of the second round upwards.

(And, of course, Tatum told us that it was Brooklyn’s networks who made the choice when he had actually changed his hands twice – from goals to Timber wolves Before Announced it.)

Announcement

The Lakers selected the Adou Thiero, Junior of the Arkansas, that our Kevin O’Connor described as “a slasher with a marked frame and a first explosive step” and a choice, which is an excellent ray for a little money.

Loser: Ryan Kalkbrenner’s evaluation on himself

After the great man of Creighton, Ryan Kalkbrenner, described himself as a very improved shooter in a media pack of the draft day on his potential impact on the NBA, the 34th overall choice of the Hornets informed us: “My favorite player was Dirk [Nowitzki]And I couldn’t be more different from him. That Fadeaway sweater in the post is only iconic. He was so good in this, and I think I hit that blow twice more than five years in my university career “.

Do not fix limits to yourself, Ryan.

Winner: Alijah Martin’s jeweler

Senior Ala of Florida Alijah Martin has reached the draft in an all -white dress with a soft appearance and a chain of the size of his head, which is a good sign that the null controls of Gators Booster probably canceled.

“Only something that I and my jeweler put together,” Martin said to Espn.

Announcement

That’s right: the choices of the second round have their jewelers, apparently.

Unfortunately, Martin’s chain was of n. 15, and 39th by the Toronto Raptors was selected, which recently withdrawn the n. 15 of Vince Carter, so I guess Martin will have to commission another chain.

Winner: Rocco Zikarsky, Brisbane Bullets

What name. Do not fight this man, only based on the name.

In addition: do not fight this man, because he is a 7-feet Australian-4 “that he can practically crush without jumping”, according to Espn’s Jonathan Givony. Good on you, Timberwolves, for taking it the 45th.

[SHRUG]: Milwaukee Bucks GM Jon Horst

Before the selection of Bogoljub Marković’s Bucks (not a “Star Wars” character) with choice n. 47, Charania informed us the two -time Mvp Giannis Antetokounmpo is “monitoring the Milwaukee process on Thursday, while he is still deciding his future with the team. He talks about pressure for Horst.

Announcement

Antetokounmpo wants to see how the Bucks improve their team for the next season, according to Charania.

It is probably not the improve Signature that, immediately after the Bucks selected Marković, Givony revealed: “I expect it to be brought back to Belgrade next year”, since Bogoljub probably intends to get to Milwaukee in 2026.

For his part, Marković everyone, but said that his international experience made him the best player of the draft: “Certainly on the one hand physical and a mental side I think he prepared me more by anyone here”.

Loser: the Denver Nuggets

If Espn’s Brian Windhorst is suggesting what I think that Espn’s Brian Windhorst is suggesting here, Hoo Boy:

This, combined with the recent comments of the owner of Nugget Josh Kroenke – in which he randomly raised “a scenario … I never want to contemplate, and this is trading n. 15”, Nikola Jokić – is the cause of a serious concern for Denver. What happens if it does not sign its imminent offer of extending the contract?

Loser: Lachlan Olbrich’s mustache

What happened to Lachlan Olbrich’s mustache? Put it back, Lachlan.

Winner: Tyrese Proctor, Duke University

Since the Cleveland Cavaliers will spend in the second apron next season (and perhaps beyond), they are almost guaranteed to keep their choice at affordable prices in the second round with a real point of roster.

Announcement

As Givony said, “this is a point for which every agent was fighting, because it will be a place of roster”.

They scored Tyrese Protor, the fifth player Duke taken in the draft, with the choice n. 49. It could serve as a substitute for the roster for Ty Jerome or Sam Merrill, both free agents without restrictions.

Subsequently, Givony told us “Any other choice here will be two -way or a stock”, which is a good way to inform the display audience that the rest of the draft is not worth monitoring.

Loser: night 2

Why is there a second night of the draft of the NBA again? I think we succeeded with two rounds in one night.
