You also got Alex Sarr at two, who isn't Wemby, but he is still one of the best centers coming out the draft in the past few years excluding Wemby.
      Weak draft, yes, but it is a top heavy draft, with two incredible picks at the very top, and then another 8 with decent potential, and another 10 who will need to prove themselves.

    because white sports analysts back then came up with the myth of "fast twitch muscle fiber" of black athletes.
    We are ALL capable people, both athletically and physically.
    Most of us arent capable, but that is what makes people truly special.
