The first 70 picks are in the books. Here’s what we loved — and didn’t. And who your team could target next.
Chris Paul spoke to reporters on Sunday during an introductory press conference following his trade to the Warriors.
Among the topics broached during his press conference was Paul’s role with the team. When one reporter appeared to assume that the veteran point guard would be coming off the bench in Golden State, Paul indicated he and head coach Steve Kerr have yet to discuss that possibility.
“You coaching?” Paul asked the reporter. “Well, I don’t know what the situation is going to be yet. I think that’ll be for us to figure out once we get going.
Brandon Miller has all the necessary assets to be an NBA star. Sunday’s NBA Summer League Game against the Lakers was anything but star-making. The Alabama standout, equal parts famous and infamous, had a dreadful performance against LA — one certainly worth forgetting.
Miller put up a goose egg from the three-point line (going 0-for-7) and 4-for-18 from the field. He contributed 10 points in the Charlotte Hornets’ 93-75 blowout loss.

“That’s the deal now; everybody talks on the grid,” Brundle told Delevingne as she tried weaving around the interviewer.

Chris Paul is preparing to get his Warriors tenure underway following the series of offseason trades that sent him from the Suns to the Wizards, and then to Golden State.
Ahead of his debut season with the Warriors, Paul sent a video message to Dub Nation, during which he expressed his excitement to join the team.
“‘Sup Dub Nation? It’s Chris Paul, I’m excited to be in the Bay. Let’s get it, let’s lock in. Peace,” said Paul, who kept his address rather brief.

As James Harden and the 76ers continue to discuss Harden’s future, his teammate and fellow MVP winner Joel Embiid offered insight on his reaction to learning of the star guard’s reported interest in playing somewhere other than Philadelphia.
Harden, whom the Sixers acquired in Feb. 2022, is currently not seeing eye-to-eye with Sixers brass after the 14-year veteran failed to secure an extension. On June 29, Harden requested a trade after opting into his $35.
