Expansion Draft 

Post#1 » by TheProfessor » Sat Jan 11, 2025 6:19 pm

Hey GSW fans, Just wanted to know if in an expansion draft what 8 players are you protecting? Remember 1 player must be unprotected from the draft and player/team options can also be protected. Thanks guys. Also what would you be willing to give up to protect one of your players from not being selected.

I have to pick EIGHT? I'm having a hard time coming up with 2. The faster they burn this s***pile down the better.

But OK, if I had to pick 8:

Steph
Wiggins
Looney
Kuminga
Moody
Podz
TJD
Santos

And most of those only because they have some trade value and/or are on cheap or reasonable contracts.

I don't know what direction we're going. Are we trying to win or are we trying to tank?

Really the only person we're keeping is Steph. Everyone else whatever, at least the expansion team can pick a direction for us since our front office/ownership refuses to pick a direction.
