Well, I recall a lot of people scratching their heads at the Giannis pick. If the 2013 draft were held again he'd likely be the #1 player taken overall. By the way- that was Anthony Bennett - perhaps the biggest busts of all time (all apologies to Kwame Brown and Greg Oden).
At the time, selecting Baker seemed like a head scratcher and who knows maybe he flames out as some of the pundits are saying. My take today is at #10 overall it's a weird spot to draft and this is clearly a boom or bust type proposition and I am fine with it. Hammonds has done some of his best work in these types of situations- think Giannis and Brandon Jennings and Larry Sanders and Tobias Harris - all were somewhat risky or lesser known players. Parker and Henson were not - but they all sort of fit the same mold - good to great athletes that needed some development. His one flameout pick (Alexander) was that same guy too.
If they get it right with Thon Maker no one will care he was taken 10th overall. Heck, some people are griping like he was the first pick in the draft.
