None of us have the knowledge to discuss Jrue's injury in much depth, and Ryno need to, and certainly will, spend the summer getting his legs back. The end.
It's a lot more interesting to wonder if Dallas blows it up then what would kind of contract is Tyson looking for, does Washington think Porter is for real, or are they maybe looking to sell high on him, who is going to leave Portland, if anybody? Toronto is going to make a lot of moves, so is Denver, etc etc. And frankly I'm surprised we haven't started the annual 'we have to buy a late first rounder to get 'X' because he's going to be amazing' threads.
I suppose we could try to speculate wildly about next summer, but it's kind of hard to project a year in advance for most of the rank and file NBA players.
