Do Commanders fans REALLY know about their team? We put them to the test with SB Nation's In-5 trivia! 👀

Let’s check in on Cowboys fans and see how excited they are about the Quinnen Williams trade!

We’re about to witness three win or go home games in the same day.

NOTHING is better than the MLB Playoffs.

THE BILLS COMPLETE THEIR FIRST COMEBACK AFTER TRAILING BY 15+ POINTS IN THE 4TH QUARTER SINCE 1967!!!!!

Everyone with a shred of common sense has moved on with the Commanders at this point.

So naturally this is the perfect time for the President of the United States to demand they revert to their old, racist nickname to appeal to a segment of his base.

30. Los Angeles Clippers - Yanic Konan Niederhauser, C, Penn State

Grade: C

He has good physical tools and a potential translation as a shot blocker in the NBA, but it’s concerning how he didn’t impact the game in many areas even at the college level.

29. Charlotte Hornets - Liam McNeeley, F, UConn

Grade: B

McNeeley was a shooter who couldn’t shoot at UConn, but his high school track record as a shooter is highly encouraging.

28. Boston Celtics - Hugo Gonzalez, F, Real Madrid

Grade: B

Gonzalez has a nice combo of frame and athleticism. He made a name for himself playing with a high motor on Spain’s youth squads, and he should have translatable tools defensively.

27. Brooklyn Nets - Danny Wolf, F, Michigan

Grade: B

Wolf is interesting because he’s as big as a center (7-foot, 250 pounds) but essentially played point guard for Michigan by running pick-and-rolls and hitting step-back threes.

26. Brooklyn Nets - Ben Saraf, G, Ulm

Grade: B

Saraf is a big guard who can play with pace, find open teammates, and hit shots from mid-range.

25. Orlando Magic - Jase Richardson, G, Michigan State

Grade: A

Perfect fit of player and team. Richardson is one of the better shooters in this draft, the Magic were the worst shooting team in the NBA last season.

June 26, 2025 at 3:30 AM
24. Sacramento Kings - Nique Clifford, F, Colorado State

Grade: A-

Clifford doesn’t have a signature skill, but he’s solid in all aspects of the game. He started as a defense-first player, then developed as a shooter, then developed as a playmaker.

www.sbnation.com/nba/2025/6/2...
June 26, 2025 at 3:27 AM
23. Atlanta Hawks - Asa Newell, F, Georgia

Grade: B+

He’s an athletic play-finisher who can run the floor with Trae Young and dunk everything that’s fed to him.

www.sbnation.com/nba/2025/6/2...
June 26, 2025 at 3:25 AM
22. Brooklyn Nets - Drake Powell, F, North Carolina

Grade: B-

Powell is super athletic with long arms and some spot-up shooting ability. He should be a really good defender as he matures.

www.sbnation.com/nba/2025/6/2...
June 26, 2025 at 2:53 AM
21. Washington Wizards - Will Riley, G, Illinois

Grade: B

Riley is a skinny 6’8 microwave scorer who can get buckets in bunches. He’s a skilled pull-up shooter with touch from the three-point line and he’s not scared of contact despite his thin frame.

www.sbnation.com/nba/2025/6/2...
June 26, 2025 at 2:45 AM
20. Miami Heat- Kasparas Jakucionis, G, Illinois

Grade: A-

He has a projectable NBA game with a strong frame, creative passing vision, pull-up shooting potential, and the ability to get to the free line.

www.sbnation.com/nba/2025/6/2...
June 26, 2025 at 2:40 AM
19. Brooklyn Nets - Nolan Traore, G, French

Grade: C+

Traore is one of the fastest players in the class with the ball in his hands, but his shooting and finishing left a lot to be desired.

www.sbnation.com/nba/2025/6/2...
June 26, 2025 at 2:30 AM
18. Utah Jazz - Walter Clayton Jr., G, Florida

Grade: B+

Clayton is a big-time shooter with the core strength to get off his shot from anywhere on the floor. He gives Utah’s backcourt a dimension it doesn’t already have.

www.sbnation.com/nba/2025/6/2...
June 26, 2025 at 2:23 AM
17. Minnesota Timberwolves - Joan Beringer, C, France

Grade: B-

Beringer has freaky physical tools as a 7-foot wingspan with sick athleticism. He’s a rim-running/rim-protecting big man who now gets to be tutored by a French legend in Rudy Gobert.

www.sbnation.com/nba/2025/6/2...
June 26, 2025 at 2:19 AM
16. Portland Trail Blazers - Yang Hansen, C, China

Grade: D

The Blazers already have another huge center in Donovan Clingan who they took in the top-10 last year, and I don’t think they can play together. This is just confusing.

www.sbnation.com/nba/2025/6/2...
June 26, 2025 at 2:08 AM
15. Oklahoma City Thunder - Thomas Sorber, C, Georgetown

Grade: A-

Sorber is super long and super strong center with a 7’6 wingspan and 260+ pound frame. He’s a throwback big who sets hard screens, rebounds, and protects the rim.

www.sbnation.com/nba/2025/6/2...
June 26, 2025 at 2:00 AM
14. San Antonio Spurs - Carter Bryant, F, Arizona

Grade: B+

He’s one of the most explosive athletes in this class, which he leveraged to put up huge block and steal rates defensively.
