Plenty of people had Killian in their top 5, some even as high as #1 [[Kevin O'Connor).

Haliburton is great, but has also had the advantage of getting traded to a contender with great pieces around him, which has really elevated him game lately. Sucks that it didn't work out with Killian, but the Pistons have shown a lack of development ability over the past decade so who's to say he won't make it work with another team.

In reality, even lottery picks are a crap shoot, and the 2020 draft class hasn't exactly oozed talent. Nevertheless, we have plenty of more issues to work out besides Killian.
