Any teams who might have interest in moving up in the draft?

All of them if one of their top options are available at #9.

I like Carter Bryant for the Spurs but he's likely gone at 14, if the price is not outrageous Spurs should consider making an offer.

28, 32, 2026 1st and Payton Pritchard from the Celtics…..too much or not enough?
Jordan Walsh > Lonnie Walker

A pick in the teens and another one in the late teens to early 20s.

How close is 13 + 22 for 9? I’m intrigued by Jakucionis taking over Bogis role.

I think thats about the right value. Maybe Toronto has to throw in 39?

Heck, assuming Flagg, Harper, VJ, Johnson, and Ace are all gone, the Wizards are open for business for #6 overall.

I'd do 6+40 for 32+2026 unprotected 1st+2031 unprotected 1st. You guys can keep Pritchard.

Rockets at 10 should jump at this if offered, then dangle Sheppard, Jalen Green, Cam Whitmore, plus picks for a star.

That's about what we're looking for. We have a group of players we're interested in, so one should be there at 13.

IF Maluach is still there, ORL should open the vault...16, 25 + something. Although, I'd think it more likely that TOR takes him... and trade ORL Poeltl.

If that deal is out there, I would expect the Jazz to part with 5 + 43 for it.

Yeah Houston seems like a good fit for Pritchard too plus add future trade picks for a deal to player out later in the summer

Way too much, take the 26 first or PP out of the deal, and that's equal value.

We're talking about a 9 pick, no way are we sending out an unprotected 2026 FRP when our star player is out for year, and other AS has a torn meniscus. That idea is just wild.

Pritchard is also on one of the best value deals in the league, and is a 6moty.

This also hurts out ability to potentially move Jrue or KP with draft capitol.

These are not good trading partners.

#15 + 2nd worst of OKC/PHI/LAC/UTA 26 1st

Pritchard is not worth a lotto pick
