The dynasty format really didn’t impact the draft until about 30 minutes in. The beginning was full of high value players like Luka ($89), Giannis ($80), and Jokic ($70).
Where the pace quickly shifted was when players like Eric and Mark got the absolute steals of the draft while players like Luke had already wasted his money.
Steals of the draft:
Siakem $3
CP3 $14
Kristaps $7
Dinwiddie $3
Booker $29
Brogdon $9
Middleton $18

A huge question: how will players value draft picks?
A great draft pick would have landed you the likes of Cade Cunningham, Jalen Suggs, Zion, Tatum, Luka, Trae Young type players — but will the league value draft picks like that? Or will they say “that’s so far away that doesn’t matter?” That is yet to be seen!
