Letting a pick 11 just expire after finally getting minutes and showing some stuff is deadest malpractice. But I’m not suprised
We did the same thing with Hezonja.

Hezonja had possibly the lowest bbiq I have ever seen.

My God he sucked.

Kings Receiving Trade Interest In Keon Ellis - RealGM Wiretap https://share.google/17VoDWSQIhtIIFSuB

Sent from my SM-G998U1 using RealGM mobile app


He is kind a best asset they have. They will probably ask some pick in return. There are some teams that will offer protected first for such player ,especially among contenders that don't care about their first round picks.


I haven't watched the Kings play that much. But why is Keon Ellis drawing so much interest from other teams? Dude is not averaging that many points

I remember him going to the rim, unguarded, double clutching a layup and blowing it.

Hezonja had the prettiest shot, but they just never went in at a high enough rate. He also couldn't guard sg/sf. He didn't have success until Clifford moved him to the 4 in his final season after we didn't pick up his option.

It's not nice to have Skybox wake up excited to find activity in his favorite thread and have it just be a ragfest on Super Mario

In the offseason after we lost to Celtics, I actually considered this.

If we win a championship this season, we should quietly shop one our core players for an expiring contract and lottery pick to get possibly under the cap!

You would have to think, the only untouchable player not including our rookies is Anthony Black! (He's due for a big pay day soon especially if he continues to play amazing).

Assuming the Mavs get a Top 3 pick in the draft, Orlando should consider Anthony Davis and their pick for Paolo, Jonathan Isaac and WCJ.

We also have Penda.

I'd like to somehow get Landale and Ty Jerome for Isaac. I assume they'd want us to also take Konchar.
