How are they getting the names on the jerseys so quick? I ask because I did not see Gilmore as our 1st pick, especially with all the trades going on so early.

Nike has some kind of way they are attaching the nameplates. Ironing or velcro. Forgot what they said

For the first time ever, Nike was customizing the jerseys on site. Thus, for any of the 26 men in the green room, a jersey would have been instantly prepared for any team taking any player.
