0:15.8	We're brought to you by prize picks coming at you in the wee hours of the morning here on Thursday morning. It's June 27th.
0:23.6	I just got back to Target Center after round one of a draft where the Wolves selected Rob Dillingham
0:30.0	from Kentucky 8th overall and Terrence Shannon Jr. from Illinois 27th. Overall, we'll get into
0:37.4	those two players, how they might fit into the
0:39.4	context of this Wolves roster. I think it says a lot about how they're constructing this thing
0:44.0	going forward. We also got the chance to talk to Tim Connolly for a little bit after the drafts.
0:50.6	We have some quotes from him that will mix mix in as as well but uh yeah i got

1:51.3	into Dillingham. Let's talk about what they traded so as to be able to get them. It was get him.
1:57.1	It was not a trade up from 27 to 8 8 San Antonio pretty clearly wanted to move out of this
2:03.7	draft and you know trade their eighth overall pick for a future first round pick. The wolves were
2:11.0	eligible to trade their 2031 first round pick. I'm going to stop you. I'm going to stop you. Nope,
