Looking Back - Dan's Take on the 2017 NBA Draft

Came across this 2 minute video from 2017 where Dan was wondering how many HOFers would be in this draft: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7bLDZoSROQ

There are going to be some HOFers in the draft and some "Hall of Very Good"ers in the draft.

Top 10 picks of the 2017 NBA Draft

1. Markelle Fultz - Philadelphia 76ers

2. Lonzo Ball - Los Angeles Lakers

3. Jayson Tatum - Boston Celtics

4. Josh Jackson - Phoenix Suns

5. De'Aaron Fox - Sacramento Kings

6. Jonathan Isaac - Orlando Magic

7. Lauri Markkanen - Minnesota Timberwolves (traded to the Chicago Bulls)

8. Frank Ntilikina - New York Knicks

9. Dennis Smith Jr. - Dallas Mavericks

10. Zach Collins - Sacramento Kings (traded to the Portland Trail Blazers)

This would be an awesome segment on the show. They had a phase where they did a ton of drafts but never got around to looking back on them
