It was an historic NBA draft for Canadians with Andrew Wiggins getting selected by the Cleveland Cavaliers at number one, the second straight year a Canuck was taken with the top overall pick. Nick Stauskas was selected by the Sacramento Kings seven spots later at number 8 and Tyler Ennis was scooped up by the Phoenix Suns at pick number 18. Then the re-spawned Charlotte Hornets drafted Dwight Powell with the 15th pick in the second round (45th overall). Powell was subsequently traded to the Cleveland Cavaliers giving their roster a 4th potential Canadian.
