A team doesn't need him for 5+ years. Just draft him and use him as a backup PF who is real cheap for a couple years till his knees go. At the end of the 1st round you're only talking about a million or so dollars in guaranteed money. Much cheaper than a veteran who will want a few million.

For instance, he'd be a nice fit on Cleveland. But they chose a guy who won't be in the league for 3-5 years. Makes no fucking sense when you need to win this year. Although Cleveland is a bad example as they are one of the dumbest franchises in the league.
