Indiana Pacers site interview with Nate after his workout. Looks like they copied the bio from GoJacks.com but the interview is okay to listen to. http://www.nba.com/pacers/news/nate-wolters

Yes, NBA draft doesn't take too long 1st round bout 2 hours, 2nd round a little over an hour. Towards the end you'll see 1-2 guys drafted that the experts haven't even heard of (generally they are from Africa or some small European country. Its interesting, never watched it growing up because we had baseball games every single draft night. But the last few years I've watched quite a few, and its pretty interesting.
More confused then ever on where I think Nate will get picked, was pretty sure on the Knicks and then on San Antonio and now I'm not sure, hearing Golden State is trying to buy Cleveland's 31st pick, not sure what to read into it.

If Golden State is trying to buy Cleveland's 31st pick it could mean they know they won't be able to resign Jarrett Jack so they are looking for a PG but who knows. Indiana could use a back-up pg as well.

Could just be they see value in the 2nd round and Cleveland has the picks available to trade/sell.
I'm just going to make my pick, I'm hearing rumors that Utah has promised to select Nate, but IDK if thats a 2nd round or at 21. A ton of media guys in NY believe Wolters is the Knicks pick, some like it some don't. I'm hearing the Pacers, Nuggets, and others but I wouldn't be surprised if both those teams try to trade/sell their pick.
I'm going to say he goes 27th or 29th overall, but not to Denver or OKC. I believe Detroit, or the Knicks trade for one of those picks and selects him.
#1. Lebron will come back to Cleveland if they get Nate Wolters. I heard this from a very reliable source out of Fargo, ND.
If that source is wrong (not possible given his location) I am saying late 1st or early 2nd to a team that wants a young man with great upside, work ethic and a pretty solid and fundamentally based offensive and defensive game right now. A guy that can learn a system quickly and provide solid off the bench minutes or even function in a starting role as a modest scorer and assist man. Its an exciting night for SD athletes. Nate Wolters and Colton Iverson may both get drafted only 2 weeks after another Yankton, SDSU and SD man went in the MLB draft. Watch party at Ben's Bar in Yankton 6:30 tonight, will be packed.

Hope to see the Yankton basbeball product pitch tonight!
I saw a tweet from Brayden Carlsen earlier today inviting Jacks fans to join him and other teammates at Cubby's tonight at 6.30 to watch the draft. I wish I could be there but I'll be glued to the TV instead.
Message for the youth: “Set your goals high and work for them, because if you set your goals where they should be, it’s going to require a lot of hard work. And even if you don’t achieve them, it shows longevity, and it shows commitment. And those are both things you need for the rest of your life,” Tony Fiegen
I've considered- Jazz, Indiana, Knicks, Nuggets, San Antonio, OKC, Suns, Cavs, Houston, Sixers, Kings, Detroit, Washington and Blazzers. (also the Warriors and Lakers, but they don't match up with a draft pick as of right now).
So he probably won't get picked by the teams I've picked, or any of the teams I've considered. Its a crap shoot and I don't know anything.
San Antonio is about the best possible scenario for Nate, IMO. One of the best run organizations in the league and have a great precedent for developing talent.

Agreed. He would be in good hands at SA.
The way the top-4 picks have gone, I would not be surprised if he is picked 10th (or 60th). Pretty crazy.
