Robin Lopez, Center, Standford. 7-0, 255 lbs.

 

Ridiculous Upside says:

Best available talent, plain and simple. Lopez has also been killing it in the workouts. Paired with Gordon and Durant, you have a solid 3 player nucleus for the Sonics to rebuild around, plus it allows them to trade Wilcox or Collison. Not a hard pick, here.

 


The Houston Rockets, represented by The Dream Shake, are on the clock.

Not sure the Sonics want to get rid of Collison or Wilcox. At this point, however, Robin Lopez is a solid choice…but how many centers will the Sonics need?

One

Just one legit one… Draft Express thinks that Robin has a chance to go lottery so at 24 he is a great pick.

Green

Just curious, why wasn’t Green mentioned as part of the core?
