Fudd, who is dating Paige Bueckers, was chosen as a top forward. Miles is averaging 19.7 points per game and is second in MVP voting.
Our Reading
The habit gets a new name.
Dallas drafted a girlfriend. The rookie of the year is a backup. The snub becomes a motivator. The team’s record stays bad. The original observation: Drafting your girlfriend’s ex is never a good look.
