There was nothing to orchestrate. Nobody really gives a fuck about anyone in that draft really except perhaps Castle. Look at these stiffs

1. Hawks draft Zaccharie Risacher (JL Bourg-en-Bresse)
2. Wizards draft Alex Sarr (Perth)
3. Rockets draft Reed Sheppard (Kentucky)
4. Spurs draft Stephon Castle (Connecticut)
5. Pistons draft Ron Holland II (G League Ignite)
6. Hornets draft Tidjane Salaun (Cholet Basket)
7. Trail Blazers draft Donovan Clingan (Connecticut)
8. Spurs draft Rob Dillingham (Kentucky) — Traded to Timberwolves
9. Grizzlies draft Zach Edey (Purdue)
10. Jazz draft Cody Williams (Colorado)

Trivia for the day.

--------------

The most recent instance of both an NBA and a WNBA team from the same city holding the No. 1 overall picks in their respective drafts occurred in 2025. In that year, the Dallas Mavericks secured the top pick in the NBA Draft and are expected to select Duke standout Cooper Flagg. Simultaneously, the Dallas Wings won the WNBA Draft Lottery and selected UConn star Paige Bueckers with the first overall pick. 

Prior to this, the only other occurrence was in 2003 when the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Cleveland Rockers both held the No. 1 picks. The Cavaliers famously selected LeBron James, while the Rockers chose LaToya Thomas. Unfortunately, the Rockers folded after that season.

Thus, Dallas in 2025 became only the second city in history to achieve this rare dual No. 1 draft pick milestone.
