[Tetsujin]

Potential draft-night riser: Hearing more and more that France's Ousmane Dieng could go as high as No. 8 to New Orleans.

But we likely won't know for maybe up to 30-45 minutes. I don't think we will know the Kings have made a trade until the second part of the draft pick is made. So if we trade down to 11, it wouldn't be announced until there is an 11th pick announced.

We'll know there's a trade at #4, but obvs will not know who's picked until 11.

I'd love to find a way to get him.

#Sources — Sacramento has final offers from New York, Indiana & Oklahoma City for pick No. 4. Sacramento will wait until they’re on the clock to make a decision to trade or keep the pick. #NBA

No mention of Detroit

Those aren't the final offers trust that.

Not too surprising with their reported interest in Keegan. They'd have to absolutely ADORE Jaden Ivey and we don't really make sense as trade partners. They don't want to give their future draft capital and aren't going to give up Bey.

Yeah, without Grant, they actually have a stretch forward need that Murray can fill.

 

[Turgenev]

The only real new intel that hasn't been discussed here is that he heard good things about Murray's off the court demeanor. But doesn't think Murray or Ivey will be stars. Doesn't think either are needle movers. Would trade down.

I don't think we need a star/ borderline star with good PPG as much as we need a good basketball player. I don't watch enough (any) college basketball anymore to know the individual prospects well enough to say who that is or isn't. But a bit cynical of the star labels.

This is the first draft we legitimately have no idea what is going to happen right? General sense of the top 10-12 guys, but I don't remember the order ever being this unclear.

I think the Kings can get just as much immediate production and long term upside with dudes later in the draft like Daniels, Mathurin, Williams, or Sochan. Hence why I’m a fan of trading down.

1: Banchero
2: Ivey
3: Chet
4: Smith Jr

PLEASE BASKETBALL JEEBUS PLEASE!

TRADE UP FOR JABARI PLZ

 

[kb02]

Banchero should go #1.

[The_Jamal]

So Paolo 1, Jabari 2, Chet 3?

Paolo to HOU has just felt so finalized, do we know who else they were looking at?

 

[kb02]

TRADE UP FOR JABARI PLZ

I think the dude most likely to fall is Chet. Part his intention and part questions about whether he’ll be able to be a major contributor on his first contrsvt,

 

[gilly420]

We need more than 1 player to get good. Hoping to maximize value

STILL TIME TO TRADE THE PICK FOR KD!

It’s a deep ROYAL BLUE

 

[Entity]

Davion and #4 for Jabari and what ever else they want not named fox, sabonis, Barnes. Barnes only for later trade is do Barnes and #4 but his salary is high

I can see Chet dropping for sure, dude looks like he can get laid out by a gentle summer breeze.
