  • All it meant a lot, Rachel.

  • I mean, you know, these kids been waiting on this all their lifes and being drafted and hearing your name called It's the best feeling in the world.

  • And, you know, I was sitting there watching I shared a couple of Thiel's myself.

  • So I'm rolling with him.

  • That's my kind of guy.

  • I like my red wine.

  • E.

  • My extra piece of information for you is that he did that in Israel, where it was, like, four in the morning.

  • So the fact that he was rolling with that behind him before, I am just it just makes him cooler.

  • Fist just makes him cool.

  • Alright, Miss Storage.

  • RJ Hampton got drafted by the Bucks, but the pick actually belonged to the Nuggets.

  • And his dad couldn't find the right hat in that drawer of hats that, you know, the MBA, seven, all the draftees.

  • So he just took the bucks hat and he threw it against the wall.

  • I don't know, perky like that Approach.

  • Creativity.

  • E mean, that's just bad.

  • Bad.

  • Dad, if you ever met RJ Dad Rachel, he is just what you just saw just now.

  • That's how he is in real life, full of energy, full of emotions.

  • That's him.

  • So I expect him to do things like that.

  • Great gado e.

  • Well, it got the message across, and that's all that you need on draft night and now joining the jump.

  • Anthony, you were on with us last week, but I couldn't say it.

  • Then I could say it now.

  • The number one overall pick in the 2020 draft.

  • Anthony Edwards.

  • That's gonna be with you forever.

  • You will forever be number one.

  • What does that mean to you to be the first player selected?

  • I mean, it means everything in the world.

  • I mean, like, I didn't think it was gonna happen.

  • All the work I put in e just feel like I finally got rewarded.

  • Absolutely.

  • You talked after the draft last night and you said the player in the n B A.

  • You were most excited to face waas Kevin Durant.

  • What about facing K?

  • D excites you.

  • Most people would be kind of running off the court.

  • I gotta be honest, Anthony.

  • Uh, probably just because he's so good.

  • I mean, he's 7 ft, he can score the ball, he can drive the ball like a guard.

  • He could pass, he get the fan, and I just feel like he's the best all around score ever.

  • Well, certainly there's some bravery involved in being a rookie and saying that you want to go on on one with K d.

  • So I appreciate the guts you're showing there right away.

  • Um, you know, it's for honey.

  • We've been talking about you so much.

  • I feel like everyone's been talking about you.

  • Can you clarify what you meant and what you intend to do once you're in the league now?

  • I I meant like like football.

  • It's fun to watch, but I love basketball to death.

  • So, like I love to watch basketball any time like the playoffs.

  • I watch the playoffs games back to back because they competing for real like they're playing defense.

  • But just regular season games.

  • Some teams don't always compete.

  • They don't bring it every time.

  • So I love to watch the playoffs like the postgame supposed game.

  • Well, it's funny.

  • Vince Carter said about you that he said, Look, he goes I played on the Hawks last year and a lot of those young guys don't watch between games.

  • They don't watch other players games, he said.

  • I told them that they should.

  • Is it something that you can start doing and picking up even on your off nights?

  • What other guys around the league are doing?

  • Yeah, most definitely.

  • Yeah, watching film is it's the best thing to do to get better learn your defenders learning people that you're gonna be guarding.
