I really want him in SA. Did Washington bring him or Sarr in for a workout?

if that team doesn't make any drastic changes, he's so low on the totem pole when it comes to touches.

He shoulda gone anyway unless he just loves Washington that much more (and I'd agree. The Wizards suck, but they'd treat him like the first cornerstone towards whatever they're doing along with maybe Coulibaly and Kuzma.

If Donavan goes 1 and Wizards take the Risacher kid ar 2 he may slide to the Spurs. Is that possible? Or would Houston grab him at 3?

Sarr was in DC last week.

Risacher has a private workout this week/weekend.

26. Wizards- Tyson
27. Wolves- Scheierman

29. Jazz- Dadiet
30. Celtics- Filipowski

Based on rumors both are looking to trade I could see

Raptors 19, 31 for Knicks 24, 25, and 38

Knicks get who they want at 19 and have been looking at guys mocked very early in Round 2. Also the Knicks just aren’t taking three rookies. Meanwhile Raptors move down from both picks but get a second first rounder.

Masai and the Knicks trade pretty regularly too.

Sarr won’t fall lower than 2

Raptors consider 31 to be extremely valuable,

More valuable than a pick 25?

19 & 31 for 24, 25, and 37 is very fair.

 

[tremonthustler1]

19 & 31 for 24, 25, and 37 is very fair.

The logic being that the 31st pick doesn’t have to be signed to a guaranteed deal.

Bingo. He not trying to get Aytonned. I respect it.

Yes that is valuable, but that is not more valuable than the package being offered. Plus this isn’t a strong draft, you ain’t getting any future picks for that #31st pick either.

 

[duckbutta]

If Donavan goes 1 and Wizards take the Risacher kid ar 2 he may slide to the Spurs. Is that possible? Or would Houston grab him at 3?

Can't imagine Houston takes him. Sengun established himself as their franchise player going forward. I think Houston is locked into taking Shepperd. Fred is just a stop gap at point guard for them so they can ease him in over time. Plus they already have a lot of wings and tweener forward types to surround him with defensively.

As a Spurs fan, I would ideally want Clingan to go 1 or 2, which means either Sarr or Risacher is there for them at 4, and if they have one more 4 leaf clover left they can scoop Dilli up at 8. Then they really just need to blow picks and money at the small forward position going forward.

Problem won't happen though and they take Castle at 4 and I have no fukking clue who they take at 8, hopefully Dilli

 

[lightskin jermaine]

We really need Clingan to be gone before we pick. I think either way, we in a sweet spot at 4 but I want Risacher to force his way to SA

Would he even be a Day 1 starter with Jalen Johnson there?
