Orlando Magic president of basketball operations Jeff Weltman has stood in front of the assembled media ahead of the NBA Draft countless times. He has done so with mid-Lottery picks, with two Lottery picks, with the first pick.

That probably goes double when talking to the media. Weltman is always known for being guarded. He is not one to reveal a lot of information — and certainly, not one to leak information.
