All right.

Well, the defending champs, the Boston Celtics have selected Baylor Shireman as their 30th pick in the NBA draft Shireman out of Creighton good wing player, 66, good size, but known for his shooting ability, which all of us have liked here today, we, I feel like we give a lot of love to shooters on this show.
