The NBA Draft has more ways to bet this year
Who has the first pick in the NBA Draft? That would be the Minnesota Timberwolves. As rumors spread about blockbuster trades around the league (Harden to the Nets?), much fo the offseason could hedge on who the T-Wolves takes with #1. Will it be LaMelo Ball? Anthony Edwards? Or could Minnesota make a more surprising pick like James Wiseman or Obi Toppin?
Jumoke Davis and Dexter Henry discussed their NBA Draft predictions on the The Props Network’s Just For Sport Podcast. Henry doesn’t ‘love anybody’ in this draft, but he knows that the first pick will have ramifications around the league. Like; will the Warriors take Wiseman with #2 if he’s there or trade the 2nd pick in the draft? Which potential star will the Charlotte Hornets take or will they look to transform their franchise thru a trade? There are so many questions!
What there is no question about, is that it is a whole lot of fun to bet on the NBA Draft.
