Isaac Constans: Ahhhh, now for the tough question. I don't want to give away a future article, but let's just say it boils down to fit, draft position, and desired roles. No insider information from East Lansing played a part in this snub, just personal preferences for drafting. My big board shied away from upperclassmen in general, as I was the lowest on Valentine, Hield, and Dunn. Call me new school and let the Warriors prove me wrong with the indisputable counterexamples of Steph and Draymond, but I like that undefinable, intangible prospect of potential in top ten picks.
Denzel Valentine is a lottery ticket worth cashing for the Pelicans
