Pat Connaughton averaged 12.5 points, 7.4 rebounds, and 1.5 assists while shooting 46.6% from the field. He ranked as the 58th best prospect in the class entering the draft, according to DraftExpress.

Connaughton is an elite athlete and an excellent shooter. With a max vertical of 44″, Pat recorded the second highest vertical in NBA Draft Combine history and his agility and sprint times were among the top of this year’s class as well.

From the archive. This was filed on 25 June 2015, and it is short because it was short then: a note put up while a story was still moving, not a piece written to be read years afterwards. It is kept at the address it went up at, in the wording it went up in.

The desk it belongs to is Nets — 130 pieces, oldest to newest. A single filing out of that many is a sentence out of a paragraph, and the desk is where the paragraph is.

The 2014-15 season contributed 95 pieces to the desk, and this is one of them. The archive is arranged by season, so the whole of that run can be read in the order it was filed.

Kept deliberately. When the site was re-set every address was carried over intact, including the ones behind two-line filings, because a link that breaks costs more than a page that is short.
