Now, Marshall, do you think that perhaps some of those high percentage shots come from Caleb Wilson?
Marshall Harris 0:35
Yes. I like Caleb Wilson. With the fourth pick in the 2026 NBA draft, the Chicago Bulls select Caleb Wilson from the University of North Carolina.
It's loose to Wilson. Here comes Caleb Wilson, the first to score.
Leila Rahimi 0:53
Very good player, having a big season for the Heels. Wilson drives and hits it.
Caleb Wilson 1:05
My work comes from me being hungry, man. I mean, I'm always going to do whatever it takes to get better. I want to be the greatest player of all time. Y'all got one of the ghosts in y'all history right now, so it's time for another one. I'm hungry, man.

What impact will Caleb Wilson have on the Bulls' gameplay?

Caleb Wilson 1:17
I'm hungry to be the greatest.
Marshall Harris 1:18
With the 15th pick in the 2026 NBA draft, the Chicago Bulls select Daylon Swain. Yes! Got it. My night is on fire.
Leila Rahimi 1:29
Daylon Swain. They can overhelp on Swain because he's not a three-point shooter, but he can do that. Sitting on two for seven.
Dailyn Swain 1:38
swing come on now sway hello and goodbye i just view myself as you know a versatile player i know what i bring from day one bring defensive versatility and you know i kind of see myself doing that from day one and developing into whatever a team needs for me whatever this this program needs for me guys that have slapped size length athleticism and physicality slap slap slap

This is a good thing. Happy Wednesday to you. Rahimi Harris and Grody here with you on 104.3 The Score.

What challenges is the Cubs' pitching staff facing?

Vinny Rotino 2:20
We have a short show today. We are here for a good time, not a long time. Cubs baseball, a doubleheader with the Mets, is coming your way at 11.30. And in the meantime, a huge day in Chicago sports when you consider football. Cubs won. We'll talk about that at 1025. Sox won. We'll talk about that at 1045. And to start, I think the Bulls won in that they drafted the guy that we thought they were going to in Caleb Wilson. Nobody got cute. Everybody understood the assignment. And it was very calming for me to watch everyone go in order. DeBonsa, Peterson, Boozer. And then that left the door open for Caleb Wilson to the Bulls. And they got their guy.

How did Edward Cabrera's injury affect the Cubs' game?

Mark Grote 2:58
Is it bad that I was hoping for a little chaos in that top three just to see something interesting? Not that I didn't want Caleb Wilson to eventually become a bull, but I was like, let's see something spicy happen. Let's see, I don't know, Darren Peterson go first overall instead of A.J. DeBonsa. So much, Marshall, that, get this, you're going to need to hear this right now because you're going to crush me for it. I put a few bucks down just for the potential of... Which one? I had Darren Peterson. I bet on him to go number one overall. What was the odds at that point? It was like plus 700 or something like that. Smart money. Small money. But to your point, to your point, I was looking for a little chaos, too, and to maybe make a few bucks.
Mark Grote 3:38
But I lost money. But go ahead, please.

What was the significance of the White Sox's recent win?

Mark Grote 3:39
But I think what we learned from seeing Bryson Graham, remember, this is like his thing that he does. He finds the talent. not necessarily the easy one that falls to at number four, but at 15, I was more interested, honestly, because we kind of expected Caleb Wilson to be the guy at four in the Dalen Swain pick simply because once he was drafted, I was like, okay, was he being honest with us with his whole slap philosophy, the size, length, athleticism, and the physicality, but also understanding that I don't know if this guy can shoot at the level I like my basketball players to be able to shoot.
Vinny Rotino 4:13
Well, that's it. This is going against the grain a little bit. When you think about the last three moves the Bulls have made, right, when you consider that, for example, they get Nick Claxton. We've talked about that. You know, they wanted a guy who was a starting caliber center there. Then they go after Caleb Wilson. We understand the threes are not part of his college game. Then they go after Daylon Swain from Texas, and it makes you wonder.
