Manu Ginobili was also drafted 57th
Manu didnt play ball in Qatar.
true.
so in your opinion this was just a throwaway pick, with no value? we should have petitioned kahn to draft you in recognition of your love for the wolves.
yes to both your questions.
valrod, potential wookie of the year?!

IMO, yes.
Not a great talent, but someone who's considered a character guy and a leader. Perhaps that'll translate to the pros.

We all know Nolan / Smith didn't work out so well in football.

It’s hard for a 57th overall pick to make headlines less than 24 hours after being drafted, but Timberwolves draft pick Tanguay Ngombo has managed to do that for all the wrong reasons. Jonathan Givony of Draft Express made the discovery:
As it turns out, the 21-year old Ngombo is actually 26, and will turn 27 in July. Ngombo was a long shot to ever play in the NBA anyways, but now the forward from Qatar’s NBA prospects are essentially officially done; in fact, according to the NBA rules, he was ineligible to be drafted. Somewhere, the undrafted Ben Hansborough and David Lighty must be fairly amused. Or angry. One of the two
KAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHN

Can't wait to see him, McAdoo, & Marshall playing together next year.

Meet Andre Drummond, the next great NBA big man. He'll be the #1 pick in the 2013 draft, or #1 next year if the new CBA allows it.
And for good measure, you have another top notch big coming along at the same time.
The next two drafts are gonna be a tremendous talent infusion for the NBA. Check out Shabazz Muhammad as well.
