Givony: Minnesota, Chicago, Boston are looking to trade to #4 for Garland

Darius Garland will conduct a last-minute workout in Tarrytown with the New York Knicks tomorrow, a source told ESPN. Garland is in serious consideration for the No. 3 pick. Minnesota, Boston, Chicago are teams looking at potentially trading up to No. 4 with Garland in mind.

We don't want Weedplate Wiggins, MINN. So, sit down.

I doubt Garland is really in serious consideration at 3. If so, that leaves one of the top 3 for us.

Would likely be something like Covington or Saric plus 11.

Hmmm.... looking at this my thoughts are:

1. Minn: Townes is the only thing I see is needing... that’s not going to happen.

2. Bos: Al is too old. No way we are getting Tatum. Irving... hell no! Morris... no need. Brown... no need. Don’t see how this works.

3. Chicago: this is the only one that makes any sense. Lauri is the only option but I don’t see how they let him go. Plus, I don’t know if the 4th is enough. Maybe this years 4th and a second? Might take more than that.

It hard to imagine trading for more assets at this point as we have more than enough. Would need a player that fills a hole from any of these three of these teams for this to make sense.

I'm praying like hell knocks tale Garland at 3.. we take barrett at 4!

For Boston, Al, Morris and Irving are free agents, so cannot be traded. Brown and a future pick could be interesting. Chicago is not likely to part with Markannen. Certainly, Minnesota is not parting with Towns. May need to bring the expectations down a bit.

For god’s sake this is going to end up being a 10 team deal

I want zero expectations here. I don’t want to trade with Minn or Boston at all.

Lauri is the only person I’d consider transiting for here. I agree tho... I don’t see them letting him go.

Therefore, none of these make sense to me. So I hope no deal is done with any of them.

I would do the 4th plus Hill or Moore for Covington and Okogie from the Wolves

Per bleacher Pels are talking to the Hawks for the #8 and 10 for our #4. Got the update on my phone.

Why? I don't think Okogie projects to be any better for the prospects at 4.

They are both guards. Two guards that are worse than the ones we have now.

HARD PASS!

I think I would pass on that too unless I knew who was available at 4 and maybe available the other picks.

Agreed. I don’t really see the value there. Too many unknowns.

Maybe... Hawks to trade to 5th and then trade us with a future 1st.

If Barrett falls to 4 you tell the hawks sorry no trade, if it’s garland at 4 I make that trade all day and get 2 players at 8 and 10 that are just as good as garland

Been saying this for about 2 days now. I think griffin already has a deal in place if the draft goes according to plan. We're not making another BIG trade. We're making a small one then seeing what we can get from FA. If Garland doesnt go before #4 I think we trade for Markkanen for the 4th and a second. Or something similar.

Coby white at 8, sekou or Hayes at 10 over just garland

Hope there's nothing to this.. Jrue could fetch a lot more

The ONLY way I'd be okay with this, is if it comes out that Jrue Holiday asked for it. He's earned the right to ask out and I wouldn't hold it against him.

Just flipping Jrue at to get TJ Warren and Josh Jackson? Nah. I'm not okay with that.

And you would consider that a small trade?

You're not gonna get Markannen with that. They would want more.
