Iowa State sophomore Tyrese Haliburton draws serious comparison to OKC Thunder cornerstone Shai Gilgeous-Alexander.
Tyrese Haliburton joins the myriad of guards in the 2020 draft with a consensus of the main big boards having him selected in the lottery and typically in the top ten. That means Haliburton falls out the range of the OKC Thunder unless they make moves to trade up to get the youngster.
The Thunder have the 25th pick in the first round of the 2020 draft and while there is a drat closest full of picks there is a great argument to leave the 2021 and 2022 draft picks sitting in that closet as the next two draft classes are full of rising stars and potential generational talents.
