re: Re-sign Moore at what cost?

Jackson most likely.
You take Moore over Jackson 100/100 assuming he will take a deal that fits inside the non taxpayer mid level. kenrich I think is done here regardless just due to roster crunch. Assuming there are then three roster spots open (Miller, Jackson, Williams) you slot louzada in one and fill the other two with one draft pick and one FA forward

the two 2nds they have this year will have to be stashes if they even use them

Sounds reasonable. I think we actually have 3 2nds. I would suspect we either package them to move up or sell one and stash at least one other.

You’re right they have 3 2nds but one of them is MIL which will be the last pick in the draft and thus basically worthless

WAS 1st should be good enough to get someone who is worth stashing. I can’t imagine they’ll actually use their own. Maybe they could flip it for a future pick

honestly I forgot about okafor. He’s worth another minimum if he will take it but if not, there are plants of options. The only real options they will likely have next year for taking some fliers will be at the very end of the roster, there’s opportunity cost in not bringing in some new faces

Yea, Moore is a smart rotation NBA-level player. And at this point I just don't know about Frank's NBA longevity, even though he is only 21, which is nuts.

Think about NAW. Same age, similar stats currently. The difference is I see NAW making smart plays, impacting the game in a variety of ways, & improving upon mistakes. Shooting off the PnR, getting easy buckets for teammates, getting his buckets in the flow of the offense, etc.


Whereas, in a full seasons & a half, I've only seen Frank really improve in one area, scoring the basketball. And despite recently playing solid on the defensive end, he historically has been quite poor.
