Svi doesn’t wait long to find his new home

One more bold prediction before we go. Svi will be one of the first undrafted free agents to find a home. His new home will reunite him with good buddy Devonte’ Graham.

The Thunder should swipe Svi up as soon as possible. This move would give OKC a pair of shooters who understand the game. These moves alone could make a major difference in the Thunder’s playoff runs.

Paul George may not be back next season, but the Thunder will make their needed offseason moves if that does happen. I believe it would make the most sense to add another sharpshooter who happens to be teammates with another selected rookie.

The two could feed off of each other this rookie year and be more comfortable with their new team, coaches, and surroundings.

So each Jayhawk does find an NBA team this weekend, but only three get drafted. With all four projected to go late in the second round or go undrafted, it’s really hard to assume they all make it.
