Say the Kings get 7 and 9 (though I think its gonna be 10 when its all said and done) do you think they would be willing to package that to move up to 4 or 5 and get first choice or either Tatum, Monk or Fox?

Depends on how obsessed they are with those guys. Probably not and Monk makes zero sense on the Kings

If Vivek was a true stan he'd know Golden State passes the fukk outta the ball too

I don't think I've seen a single mock in the last month that doesn't have this nicca Monk on the 76ers. It's not gonna happen stop it.

McLemore
Stauskas
Traded for Hield


They need a PG, and the best shooter in the draft is Monk who will no doubt workout as a PG and try to use the Steph Curry "I can be a PG" approach in workouts.

I think you're giving Vivek too much credit, they have Monk written all over them if Philly can't get him.

He has to play the point at the next level, that's why Philly is such a great fit.

Yeah I don't think he gets passed Philly too..... which is why I wondered if the kings make a trade to get ahead of Philly to grab him (or fox or tatum) since those 3 will all be gone by #7 and #7 on most mock drafts is where you start seeing players who will need some real development (or injury issues)...... which the kings aren't likely going to be able to handle.

@Malta @tremonthustler1

Berman is saying the Knicks are high on Josh like you said months ago Malta.

I think Boston should move down. Especially if they don't get the #1 selection.

I don't think Fox will be gone at 7, and there is a possibility Tatum will still be on the board there too although not as likely.

It makes the most sense, Phil would use him like he did Pippen, the height/skillset just screamed something that Phil would value over PGs, which he's never been a big fan of.

If Josh didn't show positive signs of being a playmaker I doubt he'd look at him like that, but I wouldn't be shocked if they got the 1 and took him first.
