Kings listening to offers for 4th pick. 

Post#1 » by valleyman33 » Mon Jun 6, 2022 3:52 pm

According to this article the Kings are willing to trade the 4th pick. What would it take to trade up? Would we want to?

I personally dont think it would be worth it, unless a team in the top-3 throw a curve ball and one of the 'big 3' fall to 4 (In which case I bet the Kings dont make a trade).

Yep. If you get one of the 3 bigs you put together a serious package to move up. If not stay at 7.

I'm not even sure the big three bigs are worth moving up for. Do any of them project to help Dame win games or lift the franchise long-term? It would have been nice to luck into a top-three pick, but I'm not high enough on anybody in this draft to put significant assets towards moving up.

I think all 3 are likely to make big impacts from day-1 and be long term franchise guys. Specifically Chet, who would improve our defense tremendously right off the bat.

Yeah, I dont think the Blazers should be using major assets to move up a couple spots in this draft. I would be more likely to recommend moving back than moving up.

I wonder what it would take to "aquire" the 4th pick. Maybe some other whacky three way deal? Giving us 4 and 7? One can dream I suppose

Doubt we move up. Really really doubt it

Maybe as part of a Dame trade where we rebuild around Jaden Ivey.

Better than trading down and getting Grant.
