That is total BS. The scales tipped his direction on the 60th and last pick solely because Donnie Nelson could look at films of Giannis Antetokounmpo when he entered the NBA at a tender age and dream of what could be with a non-guaranteed contract for his brother. Period. The name was the clincher at #60. Cuban is no dummy.

It's the sole reason no one was fighting over him for the first 59 picks.
