2023 NBA Draft Megathread

I mentioned this in another thread, but a really unsexy trade I think works well is taking Gallinari’s salary into space and getting Pritchard and #35 in return. That would allow Boston to keep Grant Williams for at least a little bit.

There is going to be a prospect on the board at #35 that a lot of people like. At least one of GG, Sidy, Jacquez, AJJ, Strawther, Terq, Bailey, or Walsh will be there.

I bet the Jazz can buy a pick in that range if they really wanted one. Don’t want Pritchard and I think Utah can utilize their cap space better than that.

Then don’t take Pritchard. I think the play is the pick and that price seems about going rate. They don’t usually go for cash until the late 40’s (cuz drafts usually drop off hard in the early 40’s).
 
If the Jazz get the 35 then that could be a play for Sidy, GG or someone like that. Me thinks trader Dan is scoping the entire landscape looking for the best value plays.
 
If Bufkin was a freshman (he is freshman aged) would we hesitate to put him next to Black/Wallace?

I’m still hesitant to put him with them, but I can’t put my finger on why.

And I suppose it could be us at #9 making sure no one trades up... weird that he is hiding from so many teams.

It sounds as though point guards may be avoiding Atlanta because they don't want to be behind Trae Young. Cason Wallace cancelled his workout with the Hawks, and it's not looking as though he has a promise above them in the draft order. Dallas could be another because of Luka (though they worked out Anthony Black).

I get that, but the reality is that Hartenstein is probably more valuable than the average 11th pick. I also dont think Bol Bol is ever a good player on a good team, a ton of fun though.

Hartlestein is Hella underrated. He's probably better than the average 11 pick. Not sure I would do this, but sometimes taking the easy layup is the right move.

I like Bufkin, but am not sure if he is a 1 or 2 in the NBA. He has talent though so I like him quite a bit.

He’d be ranked higher than them. I feel the same exact way you do.
