Miami Heat: The Three Biggest Losers From The 2020 NBA Draft

The Miami Heat got great value with their pick of Precious Achiuwa at 20. However, on the other side of that is bad value, which we will look at now.

Again, that’s a great value. Here’s a simpler explanation in the real world.

If I told you I would give you $10 now or $25 tomorrow and you picked the $10, that’s a bad value. All money is good money, but the better pick was to be patient and let me give you $25 tomorrow.

Now that we have our math lesson out of the way, let’s take a look at some losers!

Chicago Bulls

It always makes me nervous when teams draft players that couldn’t even start for their college teams and that’s exactly what the Bulls did at four with Patrick Williams out of Florida State. Don’t get me wrong, I think Williams is a good player, but the Bulls could have traded down a few picks if they really wanted Patrick that bad.

At worst, Patrick Williams projects to be a good defender and rebounder in the NBA. Is that really what you hope for out of the 4th pick?

Not really, but if he can develop an outside shot and continue to get better on defense then Chicago might luck out. For what’s it worth, he fills a need as inevitable Otto Porter injury insurance.
