Ok, so lets say worse comes to worse, and Favors and Cousins are both gonzo. We could stay at 5, and maybe reach for a big like Monroe, etc, etc, or what about trading down 7 spots, and picking up a late 1st round pick? The Grizzlies have 2 late first round picks with #25 and #28. I'm sure Geoff Petrie can work magic with both the 12th pick, and the 25th (or 28th). Who knows who might slip to 12th? Maybe Udoh or Aldrich or Davis. Most likely Whiteside will be there in a worse case scenario. And then, very late in the first, you can grab a guy like Gani Lawal from Georgia Tech. Anybody that has seen tons of Favors highlights has surely seen Lawal in action. The more I saw those clips, the more I started thinking that Lawal is actually farther along in his development. Could you imagine Lawal actually ending up to be the better Yellow Jacket? I know it sounds crazy, but still....
Imagine welcoming these Kings to your team next year:
12th overall = Ekpe Udoh ( I can dream can't I?)
25th or 28th overall = Gani Lawal
33rd overall (3rd pick in the 2nd round) = Jordan Crawford
