That’s alot less than what I thought it would cost.
Gotta wait now to see what D.Russell decides tomorrow.
Looks like no one’s super hyped on some draft pick 100 years from now.
No one was really clear what the Hawks were doing until now. They are rebuilding. The deal makes sense from that standpoint. They get a 6’ 8” 21 year old combo guard that can defend and has a high ceiling. Larry Nance is a 11 million expiring deal that they can also flip. And 2 draft picks, one next year and then in 27. Those picks make more sense for a rebuild than a pick 5 years from now. Ironically, we drafted Nance, the Pels used a Laker pick for Daniel’s and the 2025 pick is the Lakers pick.
Totally agree Michael. The combination of picks in the near future, big chunk of expiring money that is still flippable and an up and coming prospect.
This tells me the Lakers (and by extension Reddick) value Reaves more than Murray and that expiring $$$ is more valuable than Hachimura, at least to Atlanta.
Which really shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone. Also that picks still years away are in fact NOT as valuable as picks that come sooner.
