News, rumors and buzz around the draft and free agency

That's completely different. Ingles and Bogdanovic would play very well together. You could start one of them at the 4 or bring Ingles off the bench to run the second unit. They're both versatile players capable of playing multiple positions and basketball is becoming more and more positionless anyway. Im 100% positive the Jazz would keep Joe if they get Bogdanovic and both will play huge roles next year. Favors is the one we would let go in order to get Bogdanovic.

So Bojan evidently has a 8'8" standing reach (that's bigger than Paschall fwiw) and 6'11" wingspan (bigger than Samanic or Windler) and registered a 36 inch vert years ago.
I'm not sure how he feels about playing the 4, if he's even ever done so and if so how he held up, but he might be able to play some 4. He has had a TS% over 60% each of the last three years, is 38.9% from 3 for his career, shoots 80%+ from the line, can rebound, pass, dribble. If we can get him, I still want a 4 like Jamychael Green. Somehow. Adding these two (along with Conley) would improve our shooting and spreading of the floor infinitely from last year's roster and also improve our lineup flexibility. Bring back Sef on the vet minimum too.

Yeah, and "being unavailable when your starting PG goes down" definitely isn't part of it. And cut the BS about us never needing him to play 30min. Grayson Allen, who hasnt played well in his rookie season, played 40+min for us in his last game against Clippers, and Mr. Neto was AGAIN inactive for that game.

It’s called a waste of roster spot. If the organization really loves him, just put him side by side next to Raul Lopez, right now.

Not to mention the stretch of games Donovan had to be the starting PG. Ideally you'd want a backup to be able to step in with just a little downgrade from a starter like Rubio. Neto was injured - yet again - IINM.
I think Bojan could even fit in well when Conley sits. You have Mitchell slide over to PG and play Bojan and Joe at the wings.

A point guards job is not always to score. They have to actually, ya know, run an offense. Neto is a solid backup, dude just can't stay healthy. Seth Curry isn't even a PG for Pete's sake.

Rudy loves him, which is why the organization may offer him at the vet minimum. Who cares who fills the 15th roster spot? If he leaves, Dennis can tell Rudy it was Raul's choice, not his.
