I always pay attention the NFL and NBA drafts but this one is especially intriguing. The look-back is often the most interesting part. Carmello, Bosh, and Wade all drafted after Darko? Sam Bowie picked before Jordan? Greg Oden before Durant?

Consensus Top 5 Picks in the 2017 Draft
PG - Markelle Fultz - Washington’s
PG - Lonzo Ball - UCLA
PG - De’Aaron Fox - Kentucky’s
SF - Josh Jackson - Kansas’

SF - Jayson Tatum - Duke’s

Five Reasons why our look back in 5 years will be so interesting
1. There seems to be consensus that the top 5 picks are all can't miss talents (That wont be true..someone will turn out to be Darko)
2. For many the top 3 picks are ALL point guards. (Point guards are rarely #1...but top 3 players all PG's?...That won't be true.)
3. Celtics and Sixes are playing musical chairs with the top picks (One will look like a genius and the other a dunce)
4. Lavarr Ball (enough said)
5. Sixers could go from being the worst team in the league to winning multiple NBA titles and this draft will be key. They have so much young talent and high draft picks stockpiled how could any GM screw this up?
