Griff will shop this pick non stop from now until draft night. But I still dont see who the sellers are. So, the backup plan is to kick the assets down the road. Keep an eye on OKC, NY, Houston -- each have two firsts in that 15-25 range. Griff would love to pick up picks and then move them for future 1sts (similar to what he did last year with the Milwaukee pick)
So, we get 16 and 18 for #10 and then Griff trades each of those picks for a future top 10 or lotto protected 1st. Added two more picks to the war chest for when sellers do emerge. Because future picks will almost always be more valuable than a non top 5 pick recent rookie. Example -- what would have more trade value right now: Kira or the 2023 lotto protected Hornets pick and the 2024 lotto protected Memphis pick? The latter.
Just something to keep an eye on and thing about. Or...you can do a combo - 10 for 18 and Dort. Then, trade 18 for a future 1st. Get a guy for now and a pick for the chest.
