even turning down the Pelicans’ No. 4 pick in the 19 draft


Was this already known? I cant remember talking about knowing for sure if we offered that. That was a strong offer.

Indiana had a decent roster and I guess figured they could make a run with what they had. I always thought they under achieved the past few years. In 2019 they had Turner, Brogdon, TJ Warren, Oladipo (injured?) and Sabonis. Thats some pretty good talent.

It was known and discussed on draft night. I think that I might have argued that the #4 pick was too much to give up for Turner, lol. But I don't know if that was the deal straight up. We might have asked for their pick in return or something -- I don't think that anyone knows the exact details on what was discussed. But, yeah, what was claimed was that Indiana would not make Turner available in any deal.

But that's one of those trades that would have ended up being a lot better for both teams.
