Spurs were gonna pick him at 8... so there wasnt a chance to trade back and get him. Lee worked with Giannis and Tatum... we will try and build him in that mold. Better shooter than Matas, Castle, and Holland. Peterson liked the talent. Its a good pick. Miller wont have to ask him to get back of defense. He has a want to get better and work. The fit is seemless. Give it time. This pick keeps us in the lottery for a BIG draft... then in year 2 BOOM. Play in or offs.
I called it!!!! I was on Ron Holland team but dropped him for Salaun. Youngest player in the draft. Has all of Hollands physical tools but taller, better shooter and has Mamba mentality and free throw percentage is 83%. And if you're to believe Wemby, who said, there's no one that works harder than Tidjane on his game.
I wanted Matas, Holland, or Williams. I’m a big Matas Buzelis guy. But I’m very intrigued by Sulaün. 6ft9, 9ft standing reach, solid athleticism, and good promise as a shooter/scorer. I’m excited. He has a really high motor and puts in great effort and energy on both ends. I want the team to be “bad” for one more season since the Cooper Flag draft is coming up. But I’m very excited to see how Tidjane Sulaün develops in a couple of years.
We were trying to trade down for him but couldn't. Watching it live I thought we were going to draft Matas, I was shocked and a little mad lol but he turns 19 in August and has loads of potential, we can mold him. I like the pick, it was just early.
The Spurs wanted Tidjan at 8th so the Hornets had nowhere to go if they wanted Tidjan! I think he is a Gem His motor is AMAZING He will single-handedly make other players stand out for not working as hard as he is, especially in the film room the day after! Great pick
i like the pick, it just shocked me a lot. i really didnt think we were going PF even though we need it bad. people were talking about knecht age, and cody williams age, and then we past on matas, but it was honestly between clingan and Salaun if we were to go big. I'm happy with either one, especially since Salaun speaks as if he doesnt care we suck, hes going to play 100% no matter the outcome, thats what i ultimately want.
Remember, this was the player that supposedly got injured during a Spurs workout and cancelled his remaining workouts, including one with the Hornets. I think the Spurs guaranteed him they would take him at 8 so the “mysterious injury” happened.
NFL teams and players and fans don't like tanking. A player isn't even a full 1/22 of the team (special teams) compared to basketball where you are 1/5. Winning culture is huge in the NFL
That’s what I’m saying! I don’t have access to all the data in the world but those are pretty good splits. Makes me really confused as to why people don’t buy his shot. Not the prettiest thing but once again he is on 18
Hornet got a good man, he was trained in France until he came to Hornet, which means he is a patient player who stayed with his club until the end of his formation, this is why most of the good French players had success in the NBA.
Hornets needed to draft size. Salaun is potentially a bigger "PJ Washington" that can catch more lobs. Good pick. Young guys who can finish in the paint can help your team immediately, as their other skills develop.
his shot blocking volume isn’t on faried’s level, but he has the physical tools to develop into that kind of player which is the perfect mold for today’s league.
@@Heat3955you dont know what you’re talking about. Small markets have to build in house like the pacers. Haliburton was acquired on a rookie deal. Enjoy signing guys like jimmy and not getting it done though, we’ll enjoy that 27’ first.

In a year or two I definitely expect Charlotte to be competitive.

Agreed. I'm an NFL fan 1 and NHL 2 but I'm started to get excited about the NBA too!
GET THIS MAN A SUMMER LEAGUE POINT GUARD
PLEASE! Just about anything he does negatively in SL is voided if he doesn’t have a PG
nsj prolly gonna play pg
They did: KJ Simpson.
KJ SIMPSON BABY
@@VanIykehell yeah they did. Charles Lee been here for like a month and already done better than Steve Clifford ever did
It didn't shock me. Thats the guy I wanted for the Hornets. Great pick.
Everybody in France who knows basketball will tell you Tidjane Salaun is our best prospect right behind Nolan Traoré. The best player in this class.
Good job on this video bro.
He's gonna help us stretch the court
People thought it was dumb to get brandon miller over scooter and look how that turned out!
Love this pick man, taller better shooting Aaron Gordon, and will do all the dirty work for this team.
Perfect role player if we develop him properly.

Effort and hard work is big for the two players we drafted, says a lot about some of our players that are on the roster

He’s only 18 so those career numbers are good considering he was 15 lol

He was only playing 20 mpg too

Yeah, but I'd say Tidjane is a better/more aggressive defender.
Charlotte Hornets will have a High Lottery pick next year. Excellent pick
JT Thor did all his work to become a 3 point specialist. Very confusing..
Is it just me is or he Kennith Faried with a jumper?
his shot blocking volume isn’t on faried’s level, but he has the physical tools to develop into that kind of player which is the perfect mold for today’s league.
He wanted to be on a team with his french brotha Wemby
Wuzzzuuuppp!
