It wasn’t The NBA Draft we expected for Auburn, but it was still a night to celebrate in The Big Apple. (Auburn featured in Times Square pictured above) Jabari Smith wasn’t picked 1st Overall, but he still went 3rd to Houston. Auburn did get a program first, when Walker Kessler was selected 22nd, it gave Auburn TWO FIRST ROUND PICKS for the first time in program history. A night to celebrate and honestly, Jabari may be better off in Houston. – Jim Dunaway
