Thunder get Caleb Wilson ggs
NBACentral@TheDunkCentral
Executives around the league are floating the idea of the Thunder trading up to draft Cameron Boozer or Caleb Wilson, per @JakeLFischer “‘What's to stop them from packaging No. 12, 17 and [even] future picks to try to go get Boozer or Wilson?’ one Eastern Conference executive asked me the other day. Imagine. The Thunder certainly have the trade assets to do so to try to nab another elite forward to throw at Victor Wembanyama.There is an undeniably growing anticipation leaguewide that the Thunder are going to do something.” (Via open.substack.com/pub/marcstein/…)

@TheDunkCentral @WindhorstESPN He offered 2 years ago to take a pay cut to get Val, Windhorst doesn’t have sources to LeBron anymore
English
LeBron’s camp would reportedly want an explanation from the Lakers if they offer him anything less than a max contract, per @WindhorstESPN
“Windhorst noted that James and his camp want the Lakers to make a contract offer, and if it is for anything less than the maximum, they want the Lakers to explain why and what other players they are going to target with the money that is saved.”

One move I really expect to happen this summer is the Lakers signing Timelord. Think it’s a no brainer unless they somehow land the center of the future. Most seem to think he’ll get $12-13m but I think most teams, considering his injury history, will want him on a short deal like 2yrs. Maybe the lakers get him down to the $10m range by offering longer years.
English
@NBAGeneralist_ Allen went 6 and 3 in an elimination game and you guys want to pay him $28 million next season?
English
@LeLukaShow I wouldn’t give up this years 1st because if Cenac Versaar are there they have to take a center in the draft
English
Gotta get Herb Jones and pray he finds his shot (Vando, Knecht, Jake + 1st and 1 swap)
Overpay for Jalen Duren or Walker Kessler. Hope the other teams don’t match.
Fill in the rest of the roster
English
@_utilitysports Even if he goes back to college and fixes his shot mechanics his draft stock isn’t going to improve much
English
Koa Peat’s form is incredibly broken. The upper mechanics are unbelievably poor. New adjustments to his shot and it is going to need to be completely rebuilt
Jordan Richard@JordanRichardSC
Freshman 6’8 Koa Peat Klutch Pro day in front of NBA teams at Lakers Practice Facility 🔥 Koa was one of the best winners and mid range scorers in college basketball as a freshman
English
@calvingonba If Cenac is there he’s the pick but Veesaar seems to be the pick unless someone falls or they trade that pick for a player
English
@pelinkaburner Suigo is a 2nd round pick that could go earlier if teams reach
English
What's the take on Luigi Suigo? Seen his name floated around a bit recently.
🦅@deadboylyfee
If the Lakers end up staying at pick 25 and using that pick, get me Henri Veesaar.🫡
English
@deadboylyfee The Bridges and Bane trades made the Pelicans thinks they can get overpaid too
English
@TheHerd @colincowherd Duren disappeared in the playoffs and is a tier above. garland had 1 good season and has lived off that for years
English
"If you ask him to be a 2nd best player he will be compromised. YOU will be compromised."
@colincowherd reacts to a poll ranking Austin Reaves as a "Tier 3B" NBA player
English
@NBAGeneralist_ Instead of KCP, 1.) Ayo 2.) Ellis 3.) Grimes instead of KCP. Thybulle is another good option if they strike out on those guys
English
@pelinkaburner They can take LaRavia too but I would want a one or two 2nds in return
English
Would you guys entertain sending Vando/Dalton to Milwaukee for Myles Turner in a 3 team deal where Giannis is Miami bound?
Would basically be an extra 10mil on the cap sheet, but you likely don't have to attach significant draft capital to do it...
English
Even tho they are keeping Redick id like to see the Lakers upgrade their bench with better assists. St Jean can stay but Brooks/McMillian were only hired cuz they were the cheapest ex-head coach options out there. Go throw a bag at Sweeney if he gets passed up for HC jobs again. Bring Handy back.
English
Rui Hachimura is expected to earn over $20 million annually in free agency.
Since joining the Lakers, Hachimura has developed into a consistent three-point threat averaging 41.5% on 3.6 attempts.
Los Angeles wants to retain Hachimura, but there will be serious competition here.
English
@LakersLegacyPod I’m not trading our first away just to get rid of two expiring and receive a pick you can most likely literally pay cash for
English
Rob Will should be a layup.
I think Grimes would be number two with how badly you need bench scoring
Ryan Rueda@PlayoffDude
You’re the Lakers GM and free agency just started, who’s the first available free agent you’re calling?
English
@CanyonDriver Ideally they get a pick in the 2nd and they walk away with either combination of Veesaar/Cenac and Peat/Swain
English
I know I've been writing a lot about Zuby lately, but that's not to take away that Veesaar will arguably be the BPA. He's a mid 1st rounder in prior drafts. He would have been looked over YKN last year for defensive verticality and ability to read the floor.
LeLukaShow 🪄👑@LeLukaShow
We got Karl Anthony Towns at home. @espn has Henri Veesar being drafted to the Lakers at #25. Can shoot, rebound, catch lobs. Need to see more defensively and lateral mobility
