Rudy gay trade to sund2/4/2024 ![]() Okafor and the next year’s second first round pick, Sean May were both MOP in the NCAA tournament. Starting in 2004 with Emeka Okafor, the Bobcats have picked players with outstanding college pedigree. The limited draft history of the Bobcats reads like a who’s who of solid college players who haven’t blossomed at the pro level and a sprinkling of “upside” guys that never panned out. It’s hard to say which concepts that will determine the players selected and how they will be utilized but hey, we can speculate can’t we? Now a third coaching staff, a different ownership structure, a new general manager and a new title. We can look at Rod Higgins’s history as a GM, but his 3 drafts that he actually had picks in he’s had2 different coaches and completely different rosters and needs. But, such little history to go off of, Rich has never run his own draft as GM. He’s an additional, highly analytical, intelligent voice in the room when it’s “On the Clock” time. I like that it was elevating Rod Higgins and bringing in Rich Cho, not a complete shift and wiping out the prior regime. Bringing in a new GM 10 days before the draft is so bold, so different, so much of a curveball. I have no clue what the strategy is, what the plan is, what they want, what they value highly and things they’ll overlook.
