Roster Building From Here - FA and Summer of 2023

Payton Pritchard has apparently made it clear he would like to be traded. Are we interested?
I'd be down for this... Tony Jones threw cold water him before though. I think he could be a poor man's Tyus Jones type. I think he would be real cheap so there is that.

Seriously though... not a difference maker at all. Also only 6' 0.5" (2020 combine without shoes) and some people are already worried about Wallace who is 2 inches taller.
 
The price on Payton might just be taking his contract and giving a second rounder. He's a good player... I get that he's short but we could use him. While yall are looking up his height check his stats too.

He would be in the rotation on many teams... I'd say most teams. Boston just happens to have Smart, White, Brogdon... so kinda tough to see regular action.

Ok, but if you Utah drafts a PG prospect (which we all think they will) where the **** is Pritchard getting minutes? He's asking out to get time, not ride pine. Dude might be a baller who can put up buckets, but we don't need that when we got Sexton.

Sexton/THT/Dunn/2023 draft pick are all going to be far ahead in the pecking order.

I think THT could be on another team... and don't think we will for sure draft a pg. Its not ideal with Sexton but Pritchard can shoot well... so he can go offball with some of these guys and supplement playmaking. If the price is right then do it.... figure it out later.

THat's certainly possible, but I think he stays. Plus we might keep Clarkson, so add another player ahead.

And if that happens then don't do Payton... I think he's a guy that is undervalued and could be a shrewd add for us. If it was just a second or two I think I'd pick him up and live with being tiny in the backcourt with Sexton and Payton for a few minutes. Injuries, trades, etc. could all thin the guard position out. If you drafted Black I think you could play him with Pritchard... Dunn as well... THT as well. He's a good player and we need good players.
 
Pritchard is an example of a guy that fell out of the playoff rotation. The Lakers had three or four such guys that were first round picks. The Celtics also had some guys not in the playoff rotation that were also first round picks.

Nah… they just overloaded at pg… they brought in Brogdon to be sixth man. They got three pg/combo guards that would start for the majority of NBA teams. Just a minutes squeeze.
