00:00The Magic have selected Tristan DeSilva out of Colorado. A big night Kev. Four CU
00:10men's basketball. Two first-round picks. Cody Williams 10th overall to the Utah
00:15Jazz. DeSilva 18th overall to the Orlando Magic. It is the first time in Colorado
00:22men's basketball program history the Buffs have had two first-round selections
00:27in the same NBA draft. For Tristan DeSilva the big question is going to be
00:31his ability to shoot the basketball at a high level for this Orlando team. Now
00:35that is exactly what he did at CU. Finished the career, round up 39% from
00:40beyond the arc. Because they've got the foundational piece in Paolo Ben Caro,
00:44Franz Wagner, Jalen Suggs. They don't have any guy on that court who steps out day
00:50one and is a guaranteed plus shooter. It's why they're so linked to Klay
00:56Thompson, of course. But Tristan DeSilva at his size is expected to be a plus
01:01defender. If that shot holds up you'll play a lot of minutes for Orlando, Ben.
