Cuban knows a thing or two about picking people. Cuban hit a home run! Funny how things work out. Good luck and kick some butt!
Not a bad place for AJ to be. They have decent bigs (JaVale McGee and Zaza Pachulia), but not guys who have solidified their position for years to come. The contract situation with JaVale (he is in a contract year this year) and Zaza (he has this year and next) will make for a competitive situation. However, if AJ can prove himself and earn it, he has an opportunity in a year or 2, for the organization to commit themselves to him. Good luck AJ!!!! We'll be rooting for you.
What pick was he? BTW I wish him well, but I don't think his loss will hurt as much as some on here think. Haas has been practicing against and playing with AJH so he should fit right in at full time menace in the middle. Purdue will be better next year and AJH should make a lot of $.AJ and Dirk raining treys!
#46 to Dallas. No guaranteed money at that spot I don't think.What pick was he? Any guaranteed money? Sorry, couldn't stay up that late. Just knew Yogi and Troy weren't drafted.

16th of the Second Round (#46 overall), no guaranteed money.
Also just saw this from ESPN.com, Tim MacMahon:
Mavs second-round pick A.J. Hammons acknowledges perception that he's "a little lazy here and there." He says he has worked to improve his conditioning and playing hard consistently. "I've been working to get that opinion out of the way."
I think IU has plenty of wing talent that losing Troy will not hurt them. The point guard is now your question mark just as it was ours last season. Might still be.I wish my only problem was effort and not ability/size. Still say Purdue will be better w/o him. No knock on AJH, but drive and effort by a centerpiece player can effect entire team. Haas may flourish at center now.
Hate to see Troy leave IU, but they may be more consistent and team orient w/o him. Who knows for sure.
IIRC, Brad Miller was not drafted and became an NBA All-Star n a long career. I believe he outlasted all of the drafted centers in his class.Surprised that Damien Jones went in the late 1st round and AJ falls to late 2nd.... I'll be curious to see how he does in the pro's.
Also shocked that AJ was the 10th center taken..... Would have thought he would have been top 5 for the position.
