[Kalbrosky] The Lakers have met with Texas Tech's Zhaire Smith "several times" and are "super infatuated" with his potential fit with the team. But as noted by @KevinOConnorNBA, they would likely have to trade up to select him.

Me and @CantStop shoulda been drafting all those years instead of garbage Kupcake. Kobe woulda had 10 rings

I didn't realize y'all picked him, good choice. He won't go lottery because of his situation, but there is no reason he should fall out of the first round, or really out of the mid 20s.

Anyone ever listen to the Locked On NBA podcast? There's a main daily one and then individual ones for each team.

So today they posted their mock draft with the hosts of each team's podcasts calling in to make picks

Suns were up first and the two dumb cacs of course chose Doncic. For the last month they've been trying to make the case for Doncic and talking about Ayton's downsides. Last week after it was all but confirmed Suns are taking Ayton they sounded depressed af :mjlol:

So anyway the mock draft host comes on and is like whoaaa surprise there, Phoenix takes Doncic

Next the Kings are up and the two high pitched cacs start off saying how theyre shocked and dismayed because they thought they were getting Luka, they take Ayton

Next up is the host of the Hawks podcast and big surprise, its an awkward cac. HE says hes disappointed as his dream scenario had his #1 prospect - Luka Doncic - available at 3. :skip: He takes JJJ

Next up some austrailian guy comes on and says he agrees with all the choices so far, he had Doncic as the best player in the draft

With the fourth pick, its another awkward white lamenting that he got his hopes up with the talk of Doncic falling to the Grizzlies irl so now he doesnt know what to do. He took Trae Young :dead:

I had to cut it off at that point.
