17 belongs to New Orleans, no?


They're likely to push it to 2025

Ah, forgot about that wrinkle. Interesting.

Others don't like the deal, but I think it gives the Bucks some fresh legs especially if you could trade up into the back lottery using 17 and 23.

JHS, 17 and 23 to OKC
12, Rui and Wood to Milwaukee
Lopez to the Lakers

Lopez/AD/LeBron might be old, but that's a big line-up and the Lakers would still have their guards and 2 1sts to trade in follow-ups.

They really need to inject some youth into that team. Josh Green from Dal would be a fit i believe, but i dont see what they'd offer Dallas that would make it enticing.

Second thing I would do is I'd probably trade Brook Lopez. I know there's a lot of sentimental value, he helped win a championship but OKC could probably use a center. I don't know what a trade like that looks like, perhaps something like Lopez for K. Williams, Dieng and Houston's lottery pick. That gives them two more rotational players, plus a lottery pick. It's probably not going to win them a championship, but at the very least it gives them a more well rounded roster.


Brook for Kenny Hustle + 12 has been floated on our board. Would Presti part with that pick for a 36 year old, albeit near perfect fit in Lopez?


If they make the WCF and can't get past that and the drawback is that they needed more size, then yes, I could see them putting a package together and getting a guy like Brook Lopez. They have 100 picks.
