5 Delightful Tweets from NBA Draft Night

https://twitter.com/sreekyshooter/status/1540160612130496512The NBA Draft came and went last night. It’s always cool to see guys realizing their dreams as they enter the incredibly competitive NBA.

You get a lot of fancy high-fives and handshakes, some tears and raw emotion, and all kinds of wacky suits (though I don’t think any surpassed Drew Gooden’s Dr. Evil look.)

You also get trades that are often announced on TV several minutes after they’ve been reported online, so there’s minimal suspense when they happen.

Of course, let’s not forget the tear-jerking stories of some players, such as MarJon Beauchamp, who considered quitting basketball after all kinds of hardship during the pandemic (including being homeless), only to become a first-round draft pick.

It’s a lot to keep track of, but thankfully, we’ve got Twitter to help out. Let’s take a look at some of the top commentary from the evening.

And if all the pictures from this first tweet don’t load, I implore you to click on the tweet to see them all. I don’t think anyone has ever been more correct about anything than Molly Morrison is with this observation.
