2017 NBA Draft: Boiler Nation Reacts to Swanigan Getting Drafted

Caleb Swanigan is off to the NBA. The Portland Trailblazers drafted him 26th overall and set off a lot of joy for Purdue fans everywhere. Officially, he is the highest player drafted from Purdue since Glenn Robinson went No. 1 overall in 1994. We all know his story though, and this is great news.

I watched Caleb Swanigan routinely ruin lives last season and I sure as hell hope he's got a decade in the NBA in front of him.

ESPN playing sad music over pics of fat young Swanigan only for Jalen to call him a "stretch mark 4" is best moment of this draft.
