You dont know how reliable a twitter account w/ 2k follows named "DraftGod" is?
That's why I'm noting that it's questionable. If it wasn't I wouldn't say anything about its credibility.
Is it questionable? It seems 100% bogus.

Me.... I first saw him when he was still playing football and was much fatter than you see now. Knox is a high class development project, no doubt.

We got rid of Hood because of his contract and him not wanting to be here. It wasn’t just because of his defense.

Yes, but I think part of the reason for not believing he was worth what he and his agent wanted is that Hood is a one-trick pony. He shoots 3's, albeit inconsistently, is oft-injured and the "D" is missing from the 3&D equation.

I think one of the big reasons the Jazz traded Hood was his mental make up.

With 10 days to go feels like theres a big trade brewing in the top5. Ayton will go 1st but after that all bets are off. Bagley seems to be the slight favorite to go 2nd but the Kings have no 2019 1st and need depth everywhere.

Ya but price is always a factor Rodney couldve behaved like rick james in the late 70's off the court but if he was willing to take minimum dollars they'd have kept him.

I've seen him a ton and never really liked him. but with him, so much depends on his ability to shoot/score efficiently. was just always so inconsistent with his shooting at UK. But he's very young (one of the youngest in the draft) and has the physical tools - good length and athleticism. high risk, high reward guy in my opinion.
Locke's current draft shtick is to downplay every prospect. Trade out hints?
He does seem to have a thing for Melvin Frazier tho.

He mentions Grayson Allen much more than I feel comfortable with. Also, Jalen Brunson... Eek!
But yah... he went as far as to **** on Mikal Bridges today. Lol...

Jalen Brunson would hold down the backup PG spot for a very long time if he's the pick. It's not bad value.
I could see his career playing something out like Darren Collison.

Locke is just covering the draft without really covering the draft. He doesn't want to give anything away, say to much about what he saw in workouts, or say anything either way about whether the Jazz have any trade options.
You know, the Nuggets have worked out a few guys that are clearly below their draft range at #14. They may well have a deal to trade down. Musa isn't the clearest example, as he could be in play at #14, but there have been a few others. One was Keita Bates-Diop. Others include Okogie, Aaron Holliday, Khyri Thomas, and Gary Trent Jr. Those are guys who will go in the 20s.
Sure looks like they're exploring a deal to move down to our range. They've got several bad contracts, not just Faried.

You have to think that Washington is willing part with #15 too. But is there anyone at 14 or 15 that is better than we can draft at 21?

Okobo.
I don't trust that source at all. But I definitely think the Grizzlies could select MPJ.
