2024 NBA Draft Mega Thread

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Maybe in other drafts but I'm going to work under the assumption that teams really are pricing things lower... though not thrift stores levels. I might add one of those just to have some consolidation but value-wise Kessler for #9 is super fair.

Memphis is known for liking those late round dudes

IMO, a team to watch trade wise is MEM. They didn't win the lottery and they are too far away from getting Clingan. He would have been perfect for them as a cost effective option at C. I wonder if they would be interested in Kessler.

I bet they would be very interested in Kessler for 9. They have to feel like they are ready to compete for the title next year and Kessler fill their biggest need.

Might have to be Kessler + 29 + 32 for 9

Kessler for 9 straight up but I'm not throwing in 29 and 32. This draft is loaded at the back end of the 1st and early 2nd with big wings and that is what we need.

Well I'm not paying 1.25 on the dollar so they can find a different way to get those dudes.

I think Memphis would want something more attached to Kessler, like a protected 1st.

It is not loaded. Every draft has every type of player in the late rounds.

then they can kick rocks for all I care. Its a good move for them straight up.

Jazz are shopping John Collins according to HoopsHype. But I can't find the link right now. It was on Twitter.

Yep. If they went more than Kessler then I pass. I could see the Bulls and Thunder having interest in Kessler for 11 or 12 as well.

If we are shopping Collins then we would want Kessler to start. Or maybe we trade both and go with Edey. We must like a big or a couple of bigs in this draft.

It's loaded.

So how many NBA players are we going to see after pick 25?
