So much hating on this pick. I’m ok with it. I wanted a good shooting wing player and a center in this draft. A center at 4 wouldn’t have made sense. I would have preferred a SF like barners but he has his own issues and was given plenty more opportunities at unc than waiters at syracuse. Waiters stood out more when he was given the chance in big situations than barnes in my opinion. You have to consider syracuse’s team when evaluating waiters. They were loaded with upperclassmen and boeheim is far from conventional.
