re: David Griffin press conference

If we re-sign Lonzo, we'll likely have four quality guards next season who could all start somewhere in the league: Lonzo, Hart, NAW, and Kira.

We really need to find a PF to backup Zion, or a guy who can play SF/PF. Maybe we can get one in the draft.

Assuming that we re-sign Lonzo and Hart, that means that (absent a big trade like Bradley Beal in the summer), we'll almost certainly be bringing back:

Zion
BI
Hart
Adams
NAW
Kira
Lonzo
Hayes

No one else is essential to bring back, though I think that Hernangomez on a minimum deal is worth it. That's 9 players. (I am currently assuming that Griff finds finds a way to dump Bledsoe this summer.)

But the point is that we have now developed a core going forward and can draft several players to develop. We aren't going to use all our draft picks, but I think that we should draft three guys and also bring in Didi. If we try to develop four players, there's a good chance that we'll hit on a couple.

And hitting on a couple more young talents is the key to sustaining a title run. Yes, we could trade Hayes/Kira/NAW in a blockbuster trade for someone like Beal, but then the cupboard is bare for the future.

tldr: We'll have minutes next season for young players, so we should draft three and bring in Didi and see if can find a couple of studs.
