If Sasha was determined to go back to Europe, shouldn’t the Kings have been able to get him to agree to just walk away from his contract rather than paying to dump it?

Basketball reference has Lyles at center in 17% of his minutes last season, and I seem to remember calls here for him to play more center, but these are both admittedly imperfect sources at best. Either way, I don’t expect to see much of Lyles at center this year, so perhaps there’s an argument...

To me, a lot of the direction in free agency depends on what you can expect from Coach Brown. Will he still start Barnes over Marshall or another MLE-level forward? Will he actually play Lyles at center? Is there really thought about playing Sabonis at the 4, even though we’ve seen very little...

Summer league is going to feature a Boogie and an Isaiah. Are there any Rudys out there available to complete the Big 3?

Ok, now need Jalen Smith to join him for the Kings new rec spec squad.

That’s basically a first. Gross.

I get this to some degree. It does feel like it would be selling low on Huerter to trade him now, as he could easily bounce back next season. Barnes, on the other hand, seems to be on a steady decline. Yes, the backcourt is crowded at the moment, but I think Huerter can swing to SF just fine. In...

Will be really interesting to see what the dynamic is with teams having more time to plan for the second round. It was already turning into a free agency like situation with agents trying to force their way to certain teams based on contract arrangements. Will there be more of that with more time?

So do Mitch Richmond and Kevin Martin

I was prepared for him to go at 12, in classic fashion, so at least we are spared that heartbreak.

I hope we give pick 30 to the Hawks next year!

Depends, were they just being opportunistic, or are they trying to compete? I like Deni, but this is an interesting move for them.

This Sidery guy is all over Twitter/X but does he actually do any original reporting? Or is he just aggregating staff we already saw?

I voted “other.” Think I’ve posted this before, and maybe it’s just the memory of 2013, but it feels like “bad drafts” are especially unpredictable.

The real picks are the friends we made along the way

Hollinger has Holland 1 and Filipowski 9 on his big board that came out today. He calls the tape on Filipowski’s defense “eye popping” and says “he can embarrass smaller wings who try him one on one.” I didn’t watch much college hoops this year, so I can’t verify that statement, but it is...

So, who do we like at 13?

My guess is that it’s more about the fact that Monk still can’t sign until July, even though teams now have this exclusive window in June to negotiate with their own FAs. What’s somewhat odd to me is that the Tweet reads “intends to” rather than “agrees to”.

So, which Ranadive is mowing his lawn?
