    This draft is hilarious. Sac HAS to be the most consistently horrible team at drafting.

    Here are their last six picks:

    Willie Cauley-Stein at #6
    Nike Stauskas at #8
    Ben McLemore at #7
    Ray McCallum at #36
    Thomas Robinson at #5
    Orlando Johnson at #36

    Skal isn't that great. Not a big loss.

    Ellenson is basically the player they wanted when they traded for Motiejunas

    Probably could have packaged the pick with Aminu/Plumlee/Davis for a higher pick or even pick + player.

    Watching those videos of Ellenson; I know it's against college guys but he just looks a lot more fluid than Leonard.

    Malcolm Brogdan is going to be a nice pick for somebody.

    Man. As underwhelming as Skal was last year, he's great value at this point in the draft. He's not getting past BKN though so Neil better pounce if he wants him.

    Cauley-Stein is still a very good pick, everybody loved T-Rob and McLemore at the time, the picks in the 30s don't count, so really it's only Stauskas. And hey, given that the expected picks turned out bad, why not go unexpected?
