The 2020 NBA Draft is currently going and while it has been an emotional night for all the players who have been drafted, it has been a hilarious night for ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, who continues to find fun ways to tip picks on Twitter ahead of the broadcast.
Woj has been doing this for the past few years now, ever since ESPN asked its insiders to not tip picks during drafts.
Last year Woj used the phrase “is focused on” to let fans know who was about to be drafted.
This year he’s having some more fun.
Here’s how he tipped the No. 1 pick:
Emerging at the top of the Timberwolves draft board for No. 1: Anthony Edwards, per sources.

Then he went with “is targeting” for the No. 2 pick:
Golden State is targeting James Wiseman with the No. 2 pick, per sources.

Then he went with his class “is focused on” jam:
Charlotte is focused on LaMelo Ball with the No. 3 pick, sources tell ESPN.

Then he went on a “is targeting” run:
The Chicago Bulls are targeting Patrick Williams with No. 4, per source.

Cleveland is targeting Isaac Okoro with No. 5, source tells ESPN.

The Suns are targeting Jalen Smith at No. 10, source tells ESPN.

But this is my favorite one so far:
The Kings never imagined Tyrese Haliburton could get to them at No. 12, sources tell ESPN, but…here he comes.

Classic Woj.
