0:02 "really pleased with the way things turned out ... (Podziemski) was much higher than (19) on our board ... a player that's 8 (or) 9 spots ahead ... of where you picked ... he takes it to another level as a competitor ... Trayce Jackson-Davis ... Another guy we had pretty high on our board, a little surprised he made it that far ... these guys fit our makeup, they fit our fabric"
1:27 Jackson-Davis will be on the regular 15-man roster -- "not sure that will carry 15 ... Hopefully, we can get Draymond back"
1:57 "great collaborative group"
2:33 on if Podziemski would play right away: "I would never draft anybody expecting them to play right away ... there's too much going on. If you can find a way to play, great. It's gravy on top"
3:38 "as far as Whitmore goes we just we had our board ... this organization has never had any huge players ... we prioritize skill more so"
4:40 on if Podziemski can play 10 mins per night: "this dude is so competitive ... when you have a really high skill level, a willingness to compete, toughness, you got a chance"
5:22 on when they zeroed in on him: "You started hearing this buzz about this kid at Santa Clara who's putting up incredible numbers ... we had our group easily get down there to see him ... just something about this guy that just checked all the boxes for us"
5:35 on his defensive potential: "we're falling back on his competitiveness and his fire"
7:05 on free agency and roster spots: "heading into this week ... some concern about not enough for overloading so I always want to have a few bullets in free agency. All we're going to be able to have as minimums ... obvious we need to add some size, some size and skill, specifically shooting, would go a long way and complement our frontcourt"
7:57 on Podziemski's rebounding: "certainly not a guy we're gonna have to ask to rebound. He's just a natural rebounder, he goes after the ball. It's a skill that you can't teach"
8:20 "I do like his Milwaukee roots. We've had a good pipeline"
9:25 on how the day unfolded: "finalizing our draft board which today we did that this morning and that took longer than since I've been here it ever has ... I learned a lot, a lot of communication amongst other teams ... very successful day for organization"
10:43 on how it's different being GM: "A lot more people looking at you for the answer ... It's your call, and it's fun. I enjoy having that on my shoulders"
11:18 on if Bob Myers was in the building: "I think he was on the beach ... he needs to get away and enjoy it"
12:03 on if he talked to his dad: "great always knowing that he's there and he can call anytime. My brother actually represents Trayce .. I was on the phone with him a lot. A little too much, in fact"
12:49 on if they're better now today: "I just like the overall makeup of our roster, in terms of quality of players, depth, and kind of fit for how we like to play ... heading into free agency, having some flexibility ... at times we get kind of tight on roster spots and a guy comes up that's available and you just don't have a roster spot for it"
13:45 on needing more toughness: "I would say competitiveness ... Trayce four years ... guys that have a sample size of going out and getting stuff done"
14:23 on the phone call with Podziemski: "Tremendous energy. All fired up ... 5-and-0 in Summer League"
