What were the 2015 NBA lottery picks worth?

Let’s celebrate the passing of trade-deadline day with a look at how the 2015 lottery picks have fared in their first collective year and a half.

1. Karl Anthony-Towns, C, Timberwolves: The unanimous rookie of the year last season is a superstar in the making. Averaging 24 & 12 this year as Minnesota is 3.5 games back of ending a 12-year playoff drought.

2. D’Angelo Russell, PG, Lakers: His rookie year was marred by self-inflicted stupidity when he secretly recorded teammate Nick Young confessing to infidelity and then posted the conversation on social media. Averaging 14 points per game, but shooting just 39 percent.
