Toumani Camara went much later in the 2023 draft than Whitmore, but imagine if the Rockets had his skill-set.
As the Houston Rockets have worked to assemble their dynamic young core over the past several seasons, they have drafted exceedingly well, having selected a number of future stars that will, hopefully, keep them in championship contention for years to come.
Yet one notable failure, their decision to select Cam Whitmore with the 20th overall pick in the 2023 NBA Draft, grows more and more notable by the day as a player picked far below him, Toumani Camara of the Portland Trail Blazers, continues to develop into one of the league's two-way stars.
