3. What team(s) were the biggest winners from the draft?

EB: I think the Timberwolves did a fantastic job utilizing their picks and making appropriate trades grabbing the players to put the organization in the right direction. The Lakers, Kings, and Rockets in my mind also did well addressing their team needs and selecting players to improve their chances to come out in a tough Western conference.

BK: The T’Wolves are definitely one team that can be spotlighted initially for their draft success this year. Karl Anthony-Towns will be a stud in the NBA and acquiring Tyus Jones to allow his homecoming was perfect. Minnesota has one of the more balanced, yet young squads in the whole league and may just be two years away from contending in the Western Conference.
