Philly, probably. But, if the Lakers take Josh Jackson, that would probably result in Lonzo Ball going 4 to Phoenix.

Well the Lakers already worked Jackson out and liked his workout. They have also been pushing this narrative that the Lakers aren't sold on Ball. So who knows. I'm 50/50 now on who we'll pick.

He didn't even say anything that groundbreaking (he stated either Lakers or Philly). Regardless of the tweet, most people would be shocked if JJ got out of the top-3.

no he hasnt, unless it was some secret workout that the media didnt report. As a matter of fact none of the top have been in yet, I think I saw something that Fox will be in this week?

Just my theory but I think we're trading out of 3

I think I saw somewhere that this is the same guy who broke Nash going to the LAL before it happened.

I mean Philly could've given him the promise but we haven't had anyone (outside of 2nd round guys) in for a workout yet ( Fox is supposedly coming in this week). So BC would've had to call his agent and promised him. Definitely plausible but with the rumors about trading out with Sac.

My opinion is we traded out

Can't wait to see Lonzos face if his son doesn't get picked by the Lakers.

It's not related to this draft, but I just noticed Denver traded Rudy Gobert on draft night for Erick Green and cash. I just couldn't believe that.
