With the 11th pick of the NBA Draft, the Portland Trail Blazers selected Washington State’s Cedric Coward. When discussing the pick ESPN’s Malika Andrews seemed to have someone else on her mind.
Shortly after the pick was made, Andrews noted that the Blazers had selected Colin Cowherd.
Naturally, a few jokes were told after this mistake.
In all honesty, Colin Cowherd wasn’t on my big board: pic.twitter.com/unu0JFRUev

Cowherd himself even got in on the fun.
As it turned out, Coward (not Cowherd) was part of a later trade to the Memphis Grizzlies.
