2023 NBA Draft Megathread

3 Team trade with POR, MIN, and UT

POR gets KAT
MIN gets Grant (sign and Trade) + some of their picks back
UT gets Scoot

(Fillers and sweeteners to make it work)
That would suck for portland. Lose grant and gain a worse player while also losing scoot. Grant is better than KAT. Grant and scoot way better than KAT.

I wouldn't do it if I were Portland. I would try and trade Dame and start over with Scoot.

It feels like Portland is still trying to figure out a way to upgrade their roster. I don't love KAT, but maybe they do?
 
I'm laying out a mock in my signature. I think Detroit would take Whitmore. I think Orlando would take Hendricks. Indiana is then choosing between Ausar and Dick. They might take Dick simply because he's a much better shooter and they have Halliburton with the ball in his hands. That moves Ausar to Washington. Jarace Walker would fall to the the Jazz at 9. Dallas will move their pick in an attempt to make Luka happy, though I suppose they could keep it and draft Lively.
No way Indiana takes Dick over Ausar imo. They’d also take Walker over Dick. We getting Grady.
Grant is not better than KAT lmfao.
Individually know, but is Grant a better team player?

I think Grant is better as the 3rd/4th best player than KAT is as the 1st/2nd best player, but if I'm creating a team, I would take KAT and hope I figure it out with him rather than take Grant.
