Top end talent it's weak. Bobi has a chance to break into the top end. He's that good.

New here. I am curious why nobody mentions Markelle Fultz as a possible trade target. His contract expires in 2024. Magic has a logjam in backcourt. Fultz just had a career year but is far from a cornerstone. Two more rookies incoming. I would call Magic with THT+pick as a start.

You quite literally said next year's draft is weak... maybe just don't contradict yourself bud.
And I told you what draft experts mean when they say weak draft. You need to listen better scout.

And I told you the draft experts literally clarified that its not just at the top... soooooooo. But I guess Bobi going top 3 next year after he lights up the OTE or some **** cuz he's "that good!"

I believe Jazz could potentially make that type of deal this summer. We probably need to see if THT/JC opt out. Also need to see how the draft plays out for both teams.
I watched a lot of the Magic this year, and doubt they see Fultz as part of the future, but also don't think we should see him as part of our future either.
Bobi struggled to get off the bench at Wake for most of the year. Breaking into the top end as a 21 year old will be tough.
My speculation is that Bobi got promised a two-way deal of some sort (or a stash situation like Heustis), but the AUS league offered him more money. I saw something where they were offering big money to have people join their next up program or whatever it is called. Almost everyone looks bad in the AUS league, even if they are good prospects, so it's a nice place for him to keep up the "mystique".

Lionel Messi turned down 1.2 Billion for a 2 year contract in Saudi Arabia in lieu of taking his talents to south Beaaaayach. So.... yeah, quite a world.

Bobi seemed like a stretch to me. I didn't see it. Seems like that 'promise' he received was from a saltwater croc.
I think I heard he averaged 5 points per game off the bench at Wake Forest and struggled to get minutes. He isn't young either. Again, I don't see it.
I just think the Jazz are going to do some whacky **** and there's just no way to predict what's going to happen.

Agree, but I count on Fultz keeping improving, and honestly this time a year ago, few people from Cavs saw Lauri as part of their future either.
