2015 NBA Draft Rewind: Kristaps Porzingis changes teams in redraft


28. Boston Celtics
- Original Pick: R.J. Hunter (Georgia State)
- Redraft Pick: Chris McCullough (Syracuse)
Chris McCullough was criticized for leaving a year too early, and it looks like that might be true. But Boston has the luxury of being able to wait for a young big man to develop. The potential is there. He showed it at Syracuse.
29. Brooklyn Nets
- Original Pick: Chris McCullough (Syracuse)
- Redraft Pick: Tyus Jones (Duke)
Before signing Jeremy Lin, the point guard position was a joke for the Nets. Tyus Jones is the best one available. This season he’s developed into an average defender and showed off the three-point shot that made him a star at Duke.
30. Golden State Warriors
- Original Pick: Kevon Looney (UCLA)
- Redraft Pick: Kevon Looney (UCLA)
The Warriors stick with their Kevon Looney pick. Why would they change anything about their team right now?
