00:00Without moving, Portland remains at number seven overall and they select out of UConn Donovan
00:09Klingon. The seven-foot-two big man is one of the elite rim protectors in this 2024 NBA draft. Just
00:17how ecstatic, JY, is the Trailblazers organization at this very moment? I'm speechless that this
00:26happened. I mean, sure, I thought Charlotte got rid of their mess when Michael Jordan left,
00:30but obviously the mess is still there because, anyway, it's not important. Donovan Klingon,
00:3464% from the floor, but his ability, like Ben said, to defend, rim protect. It's so important
00:41today's NBA, especially when you have young guards who struggle to defend. Chauncey Billups
00:48made his name as a rugged player, played with those Detroit teams that won a title, based on
00:54defense. I'm not calling this guy Ben Wallace, but I'll tell you this much, you can look at
00:58Marcus Saul, serviceable plow, pro, shot block, smart, can dime you up, gets to the right spots.
01:06This is a great pick for Portland. Let's see what happens next with this franchise.
