Summary of the second round draft picks: Suns choose the second round top pick! Hu Yong becomes the loser, Lin Wei loses but has a chance
8:20am, 29 June 2025Basketball
On June 27, the second round draft of the NBA officially began today. Before the draft began, the Suns and the Lakers were actively operating. They tried to win a better draft pick to get the players they wanted. As a result, the Suns could be said to have a great victory in this draft, while the Warriors and the Lakers were not so smooth. Although they selected a second round pick that looked pretty good, they were far from achieving their goals. Next, we will mainly talk about the draft of the popular players in the second round and some popular teams.
Suns
Suns won Fleming with the No. 31 pick in the first round. This is the No. 1 pick in the second round. He is 2.07 meters tall, has an arm span of 2.29 meters, plays at the No. 4 position, and has excellent shooting ability. He has a 39% three-point shooting percentage this season. The defense is also good enough. He can also play the role of five small centers. In order to get the No. 31 pick, the Suns gave the Timberwolves the No. 36 and the next two second round picks. There is no way. Durant got too many second round picks in trading, so it is useless.
In addition, they got the Warriors' No. 41 by trading the No. 52 and No. 59. The Suns used this No. 41 to win Kobe Brea, a Kentucky big five shooter. His three-point shooting percentage this season is 43.9%, and his top shooting ability. He can play the role of a substitute shooter, but defense is his biggest weakness, because he is a white man, his athletic ability is not very outstanding, and his confrontation ability is also poor, so he is more of a substitute role. The Suns' draft is very reasonable.
Lakers
Lakers got the No. 45 draw through the trade. They wanted to win Calc Brenner, a center with a 2.16-meter wingspan of 2.29 meters, but the Hornets intercepted the No. 34 draw. The Lakers missed the player they wanted, so they immediately gave the No. 45 draw + cash for the No. 36 draw. They did this because they were afraid that another player the team liked would also be intercepted. It was too late to make up for the dead. They won the No. 36 draw.
The wing player with a height of 1.99 meters and a wingspan of 2.13 meters can switch to four positions in the defense 1-4 position. He is very active on the defensive end and has a good sense of defense. He is good at rushing into the inside. However, his three-point shooting is very bad. As an older draft, he has not made any progress in college for many seasons, because the outside world also believes that his three-point shooting can't be trained. His template is Vanderbilt. If he is left behind, does it mean that Van der Biao will be sent away? The
Warriors
Warriors were also very frustrated. All the players they had tried before were selected, and in desperation they could only choose according to their feelings. The team won Alex Tuch with the No. 52 draw obtained from the Suns trade. He is a 2.03-meter forward player. He averaged 10.5 points and 3.9 rebounds per game this season and shot a 45% shooting percentage. He had experience in professional basketball games in the Australian League. He has certain ball-holding and offensive ability, and three-pointers are also good. Although it is slow, it is tough enough.
After that, the Warriors exchanged the No. 59 draw for the No. 56 draw, and selected Florida's senior defender Will Richard. His three-point shooting percentage this season was 36%. This person's defense was very good. The Warriors have always wanted to find a replacement for Melton. Perhaps their expectations for Will Richard are to reach a height like Melton. The Warriors did not choose centers, nor did they choose players who were particularly suitable for the team. It feels like these two are more likely to play in the Development League.
Drafts for other teams
The specific draft of this second round is: Suns choose Fleming at 31, Magic 32, Noah Ponda at 32, Hornets 33, Serne James at 34, Calc Brenner at 76ers 35, Jonny Bloom at 36, Lakers 36, Chazlanil at 37, Pacers 38, Cam Jones at 38, Raptors 39, Ajali Martin at 39, Pelicans 40, Mikapivi at 41, Kobe Breaya at 42, and Maxim Renault at 42.
Wizards 43 choose Jamil Watkins, Thunder 44 choose Brooks Barnheiser, Timberwolves 45 choose Zikarsky, Celtics 46 choose Amari Williams, Bucks 47 choose Bogolyubmarkovic, Grizzlies 48 choose Javonsmoore, Cavaliers 49 choose Terrys Proctor, Clippers 50 choose Kobe Sanders, Knicks 51 choose Mohammed Diavala, Warriors 52 choose Alex Tuch, Jazz 53 choose John Tunger, Pacers 54 choose Teren Pitt, Bulls 55 choose Lachren Albridge, Grizzlies 56 choose Will Richard, Magic 57 choose Max Schulga, Cavaliers 58 choose Saliunion, Grizzlies 59 choose Jamamashak.
Lin Wei will participate in Xialian
draft ended, and Lin Wei was not selected in the end. This is understandable. After all, he ran automatically and did not receive much attention. However, this does not mean that Lin Wei's NBA journey was blocked. Previous reports have been reported that Lin Wei almost locked in Xialian's quota. He had received a certain recognition during the Mavericks' trial. The Mavericks intend to let him participate in Xialian. At the same time, several teams have such interests. Lin Wei will make the final decision based on comprehensive considerations.
Come on, Lin Wei! Having said that, what do you want to say about today's second-round draft pick? Welcome to leave a message for discussion.
