Poll: 2013 NBA Draft Take Two (Pick No. 12)

Drafting players is far from an exact science, and many a GM has been second-guessed for his draft night decisions. I’m willing to bet that every team executive has at least one pick that he would like a mulligan for. While life, and the NBA, doesn’t allow for such opportunities, we at Hoops Rumors decided it would be fun to give our readers a second take at picking players, complete with the benefit of hindsight.

The first NBA Draft lottery picks we’re tackling is 2013’s, the year that the Cavaliers surprised quite a few people when they nabbed UNLV forward Anthony Bennett with the No. 1 overall pick. Quite a number of talented players were in that year’s player pool, including Victor OladipoNerlens NoelGiannis Antetokounmpo, and Rudy Gobert, just to rattle off a few.

In the days ahead, we’ll be posting a series of reader polls that will ask you to vote on the player whom you believe should have been selected with each pick in the 2013 Draft lottery. We’ll continue onward with the Thunder, who held the 12th overall pick that season. Readers, you are now on the clock! Cast your vote for Oklahoma City’s pick and check back Wednesday night for the results, as well as for your chance to vote for whom the Celtics should have taken at No. 13 with the pick they acquired from Dallas. But don’t limit yourself to a simple button click. Take to the comments section below and share your thoughts on the pick and why you voted the way that you did. Also, if I fail to list a player who you think should be selected, feel free to post that in the comments section and I’ll be certain to tally those votes as well.
