...but in a perfect world you get the Philly pick, draft a stud at #7 and trade #15 for two protected FRPs.
So who are you attaching assets to and moving to open roster spots? Let's assume for this conversation that Presti isn't getting rid of Topic after just drafting him before he puts him on the court. So you have 15 players under contract, including Ajay. So you will have to salary dump a player for each rookie you bring in. I'm not saying rookies can't work on the roster or that there are not any rookies worth drafting. I'm strictly talking about the roster space not being there unless you move Kenrich or Jaylin or someone else to open a roster spot.
