While I do agree insofar that I hope Franz is working on his 3 point shot, this is an absolutely ridiculous take. Franz has been incredible on both sides of the ball this year.



I like him, but without a three point shot, I don’t think he cam be the second best guy on a title team

If 3pt shooting is the point of contention, there are a lot better targets than one who hoists 11+ and makes 34%...Taking them is easy. Making them is harder.

He seems to get hurt too much for me. Like Lonzo who was too injury prone he's good when he's healthy. I wouldn't do the OP trade because I wouldn't want to give up the #4 pick. IF I was ready to move on from Lemelo I'd just trade him for as much as I could get. And then try to get the best player I could with the #4.
