Solomon Alabi passed over in First Round of NBA Draft

43

Drafted 50th overall to Dallas in the 2nd round, and promptly traded to Toronto. Much controversy still surrounds his reasoning for coming out, and his draft day plummet shows how the League really feels about big guys who don't play like big guys. Regardless, we wish him the best, and hope that someone can put some dirt in his grits (thank you JV football). A mean streak could literally make him millions. On a side note, the man we wished could be DNA-spliced into Alabi's body, Ryan Reid, was picked up by Toronto as the 57th overall. Very surprising there.
