Atlanta - maybe they see him as a secondary playmaker for Trae who also spends time leading the bench unit? They also have Huerter and FVV would be a small SG.
Cleveland - they already have Sexton and Garland
New York - they could use a quality PG but would they view him as enough of a star to commit long term money to?
Memphis - if they don't draft a SG, would they target FVV to pair with Ja (that would be a small backcourt)? Would they prefer to target Malik Beasley, Bogdan Bogdanovic, Brandon Ingram, or someone else? Would they want to maintain cap flexibility instead for potential salary dumps?
Toronto - how much are they willing to pay to keep their guy? They also may be trying to stay within a reasonable distance from a potential Greek Freak-sized max contract amount of cap space in the 2021 offseason.
I guess it is possible for him to get that amount though I'm not sure which of the above teams will be the one to ultimately pull the trigger
I agree that Memphis will certainly target FVV as it makes perfect sense from any perspective.
I'm not really up on Fred's defense. Can he guard SGs?
In today's NBA? Sort of yes. People really don't exploit size as much as more and he's a damn good defender.
His main issue is finishing and creating over size and length.
