[brewcity77]

First round!!! That's awesome for Lazar and Marquette. And he's got a pretty promising point to play with

Couldn't be happier for him!! Congrats, Lazar!!

[MUCrew]

So happy for him!  Congratulations, Lazar!

[AlumKCof93]

I am so happy for him - one of my favorite players in MU history is having one of the best moments of his life.  Way to go Lazar!

[MUCrew]

Wait...does #30 go to Chicago in the Kirk Hinrich deal?  Is Lazar a Bull??????

[CAINMUTINY]

Is he now the highest pick since wade?

[HoopsMalone]

Wait...does #30 go to Chicago in the Kirk Hinrich deal?  Is Lazar a Bull??????

I wish but no.  The Bulls don't want to pay a first round contract.   Maybe if they trade Deng too...

[SaintPaulWarrior]

Being traded to the T-Wolves.

[HoopsMalone]

Is he now the highest pick since wade?

He is higher than Diener and Novak who were both in the second round.  None of the Three Amigos got drafted.

[GOMU1104]

This was Minnesota's pick, not Washington's.

[flash]

Congratulations Lazar, great for him

[77ncaachamps]

Yes, and I won't lie that I welled up when I saw his name pop up on my iPhone. Hardworker...deserves all the love and lauds.

[nyg]

Being traded to the T-Wolves.

Yes, that was the Booker pick of Minnesota going to Washington.  Then they swapped picks also.

Lazar is going to Wolves....

[PuertoRicanNightmare]

Sh*T. I turned away. What did Bilas and the boys say?

[rico49]

Zar... poster boy for hard work and attitude!!
This can do nothing but help MU with future recruits.   There is something special in the MU "holy" water.

[Brewtown Andy]

[Secret of the Ouse]

Great for him to get in the 1st round.  Hope he has a long and successful career

[MattyWarrior]

What a great reward for Lazar! Great for him, great for the program. He deserves it

[Brewtown Andy]

Sh*T. I turned away. What did Bilas and the boys say?

Stu asked Bilas if he can play at this level, Bilas said "Absolutely!" Called him low maintenance and willing to do whatever it takes to succeed.
