It kills the non-zero chance of the Jazz getting Jrue via trade, but Conley might be more available now and Randle could be picked up in FA, although I don't want to spend all that much to get him. Hard to say what will happen to the other playoff teams in the West and if there will be any clear movers up, but I'd keep an eye on the Lakers trying to get AD again.
What the Pelicans decide to do with AD is going to be incredibly interesting. Do they roll the dice on a year of Jrue/Zion/AD? Do they flip AD for a bunch of young depth pieces from the Knicks or Lakers? Do they swing for the fence and try and get another yound 3rd guy in exchange for AD like Ben Simmons or Jayson Tatum? So many possibilities.
How were we gonna get Jrue? Acquiring him has had to be the most ridiculous narrative over the past few weeks.
