One thing i dont get is when people say

“Kings cant draft ivey because they got fox”

When ivey played as a combo guard…and can play SG…

Detroit has PG already…pacers have haliburton at PG….so why can those teams pick him but the kings shouldnt

Because the kings just traded a guard last year because they want to commit to fox, now they want to draft another guard to be in the same situation again?

Davion Mitchell isn’t leading you anywhere …he’s a nice 3rd guard …all the of those guys cam share the 96 minutes of available guard time if needed… you don’t take less talented players because you drafted a good bench guy last year … but anyways tho …teams have drafted guys plenty of times before who “didn’t want to come to their team” ultimately the player has little leverage in these situations tho

Thank u!! The kings can pass on ivey and they gona be like “same ol kings shoulda took ivey” smh

Both haliburton and mitchell played good…monte has drafted well and his a BPA guy….so it goes to murray or ivey…shyt even if u dont want ivey id draft him and make detrout or the pacers cough up some picks or player

The kings traded haliburton for sabonis who was ballin and they shyt him down at the end for better draft odds…

Detroit just drafted a PG at 1 last year
The pacers just traded for a PG haliburton

Yall keep bringing up fox and leaving out the above…jaden iveys assist in college 3 assists a game…idk why people are acting like he was chris paul

It's not so much that they can't, but in order for the pairing to work successfully, Ivey is gonna have to become a high volume shooter from 3 since Fox doesn't appear to ever become good in that department. That's a team wide problem and if Ivey isn't gonna be much more of a shooter than say Barnes (who may inevitably be out the door soon enough), who's gonna shoot from outside?

Size and outside shooting is gonna be more important than finding a running mate for Fox when they can just use Mitchell alongside Fox and see what happens. Their best skills will be negated if all they can do is kick it out to someone from mid range.

Ivey and Fox skills overlap too much. Lightning quick guards that can’t shoot. Can’t see Ivey as NBA pg, not a good enough passer. Cade and Haliburton are huge versatile PGs that can play with anyone.

Ivey is not a PG he is a two, but he needs the ball in his hands as much as fox.

They passed on Luka because the kings owner had an issue with Luka's father
