Drafting a team from the top picks in the NBA Draft since 2003; A.I. ranks the top North Carolina natives drafted since 2008

In honor of the 2023 NBA Draft, Paul Ihander, Louis Fernandez, & Graham Hill selected a team of their own based on the top picks in the NBA Draft since 2003, when LeBron James was selected first overall. They also run through the latest sports headlines with Hit It & Quit It, including a Florida man with no prior basketball experience being NBA draft eligible, a report of another team linked to a trade for Brett Pesce, Gareth Bale's MLS advice to Lionel Messi, Brian Kelly wanting the FBI to be involved in regards to NIL, and should the Oakland A's remain as the A's when they move to Las Vegas?

Also, we asked artificial intelligence to rank the top-five North Carolina natives drafted to the NBA since 2008. Did it get it right?
