Funny how the teams that have incredible draft luck are also the ones that "develop generational talent". What a coincedence.

Counterpoint is the sixers lol
The wolves don’t have a great track record either… (But tbf Ant has the real potential and none of the attitude problems)
Double counterpoint Cleveland
I feel like it's been pretty obvious for the past year that the league was gonna send Wemby to the spurs
Luck is undeniably a huge part of the draft, even ignoring the lottery system, but the Spurs demonstrably have well above average return on picks, including lower picks.
I saw some article or reddit post a while ago that had them, Toronto and Miami as the best in no particular order (there were a few different ways to measure pick overperformance and those three teams traded off winning different measurements)
Spurs also have a pretty good track record with late picks as well.
not sure what you’re getting at. there’s more to that label than just drafting generational talent for both teams that do and don’t. do you have teams to use as an example? talking about the spurs, they have developed a lot of players not just the 3 generational talents they’ve had
Kinda why I wish the Hornets got him.
Cuz holy lord those fans deserve something good for once.
