a damn good player, and from all accounts, a far better person.

Nnnnoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!! Why WHY WHY?

As good as he was in college, he may turn out to be one of those guys that's even better as a pro. Should be fun to see what he can do, when he has NBA guys for teammates.

Thanks Kris for staying another year, now go make the big bucks!

considering he's going to be drafted in the top 5 or so, that may or may not be the case. Have you looked at a few of those teams in the bottom of the NBA?

Draft Express has Kris Dunn going #5 to the Timberwolves. The T-Wolves are done with Rubio, so they need a pg. Dunn would join a fun, young roster with Andrew Wiggins, Karl Anthony Towns, Zach LaVine, and more. That is going to be a fun roster if Dunn ends up there

wouldn't be so sure about the Timberwolves being done with Rubio. Pre all star break he was averaging 9.7 points with 8.6 assists. 30.3 MPG. Since the break- he's averaging 12.2 points and 9.4 assists in 32.1 MPG. Also, he's in the 1st year of a 4 year deal, so he's not going anywhere.

Also DraftExpress says specifically that team needs have NOT yet been taken into account in this mock draft.

ESPN has the Timberwolves grabbing Ellenson.
