If Okongwu is there at 8... (Atlanta may take him) expect NY to package 8 and 23 to Charlotte for #3. Rumors were that Charlotte was very high on Okongwu

I figured the question remains would someone pay a price to get up to 2.

My guess is CHI only moves up if LaMelo is on the board.

You're right

Probably need to throw in a future first as well to get him.

It's a good deal for both teams. Knicks improve their chance of landing their target with the 2nd pick and now can just focus on 2 rookies instead of 3 and can look at undrafted guys for 2 way deals instead of using a 2nd round pick. Jazz might have a target in mind with 27 who is projected to go 2nd round anyway so it's worth it for them plus they get another pick in the 2nd round.

i think its a fine deal but considering no one knows where anyone would go it is a bit odd to make this deal unless you think its extra ammo for the knicks to potentially move up?

It goes back to what we talked about days ago, if there is somebody you like then just put yourself in position to get them. What's interesting is we haven't heard much about potential 27th pick guys other than Stewart working out for the Knicks so I'm curious to know who they are targeting. Stewart is the only one in that range that I'm aware of that we worked out so with them only getting limited workouts they might have found somebody they really like and just want that one player.

nba draft.net might be the worst publication of all the draft publications

Who did they have as the next MJ? Lance Stephenson? It's not there anymore.

We worked out Saddiq reportedly high on RJ and scouted Cole extensively
