That would be nuts...I'm ready to see the live look at Lavar and company when the Lakers draft somebody else

So the Lakers are really the only team he's worked out for and he's refusing to workout for anybody else?

 

[sohi 23]

Wasn't JJ's workout in Sac for multiple teams?

Just because JJ won't do a private workout for PHX, doesn't mean he's been promised.

 

[osh kosh bosh]

DSJ has a 48" vert

Word is the Magic gave him a promise

freaky athelte.

At this point I would take either, Fox or Smith over Tatum, Jackson and the rest.

 

[essential1]

In between proctoring exams to kill time, we were doing mock drafts. Trades were acceptable.

Mine went :
Celtics - Fultz
Lakers - Jackson
Kings - Ball (Kings trade 5,10, and a future 1st to Sixers )
Suns - Tatum
Sixers - Monk
Magic - Smith Jr.
TWolves - Isaac
Knicks - Fox
Mavs - Markannen
Sixers - Frank


Edit: Forgot about 2019 pick already going to the Sixers. So just # 5 & 10.

Why in the world would someone trade 5,10 and a future first for the 3 pick lmao. Yikes. Not even vlade would do that

I'm praying Jackson goes to the lakers. Need a live look in to mamba and lavar

To get Lonzo. May feel a bit of pressure to hit on a pick they traded for Boogie, and get someone they can market around.

hmmm I doubt it would be the Sixers because I still think they are open to dealing that pick

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Three first round picks for one and it's not even the first pick is excessive

Hustling backwards af

 

[earldagoat]

Lonzo Ball falling in the draft would be hilarious

 

[nick.]

The Kings did a nice job starting their rebuild

Trading 3 lottery picks for 1 would be a Billy King-esque mistake

 

[cassanova brown]

Josh Jackson's agent said he has no idea if the Lakers will draft him. Take that for what its worth, but I personally don't believe the Lakers gave Josh a promise.

 

[frshstunna]

I'm all in for Smith Jr. on the Magic

I think Sac would take Fox over Lonzo.

The Sixers already own the Kings' 2019 1st rounder unprotected. I cannot see that scenario happening.

 

[stillin729]

all indications make it seem like they LOVE Fox and covet him, they would def take Fox over Lonzo

 

[frshstunna]

To be fair to Lonzo tho the Kings might seem like they aint really checkin for him cuz everybody assumes he wont be available when they pick

Forgot 2019 went to 76ers. Make that 2 picks instead.


And I get they really like Fox, but I'm pretty sure that's without thinking Lonzo or Fultz is remotely a possibility. frshstunna what you said.

Yeah that's definitely fair. I think it would still end up being Fox though. They seem to REALLY fall in love with certain prospects and they've shown the willingness to reach in the draft or make trades in order to get those players...

 

[ballinsam23]

Whose Tatum or Isaac working out for? No word on that front.

Isaac posted a snapchat of him at the Suns facilities today

Whoa whoa whoa...I thought you was a hugh Jackson fan

So you trade Boogie to pick up His long lost drunk uncle in Lavar? Sacramento probably scared to death that Ball falls to #5

 

[N41D]

Are the Mavs really gonna find themselves in a position where Lauri is best available? Yuck.

Need a point guard in the worst way.

Lonzo Ball falling in the draft would be hilarious

Watch Lonzo slip down to #4 as both Lavar and Lonzo shed tears together after the Lakers take Josh Jackson and Philly takes DeAron Fox
