I'm not even 100% how a trade of the 4th pick would work, because it will still technically be the Lakers' pick on draft night.


I guess you could bring memphis in as a third team in the trade.

Or you could just negotiate with them that the Lakers will draft for them (memphis) and on July 6th when everything happens we'll send over that 4th pick and whatever else we traded for it.

I put the chances of any of this happening at 0%

There's no way

Especially if Memphis sends out Conley they want Morant.

Ja’s considered a bit of a project.

What if they want Garland instead?

A guy that's played only 5 games is less of a project than Morant?

No chance in hell the Pels go up to 2 and not get Ja. Just trying to figure out why the Pels would leak that, or are the Grizz leaking that to try and get teams to throw a massive haul at them to get the 2nd pick

Yeah, the Garland and assets over Morant theory only works if it's because Memphis decided they wanted a Tennessee kid who is more of a shooter than a playmaker at point guard.

NY Post. This is most likely made up to generate some clicks.

It's Mark Berman, who is a legit reporter.

"Pelicans have discussed move up from No. 4 to No. 2 pick..."

"...and draft RJ Barrett"

I feel like this is a nod to Zion like “ we tried to get your friend”

This deal doesn't make much sense from a lot of angles. It would be terrible value to trade up to #2 to select Barrett.

This has to have a Knicks angle

They must want Morant and the pels with their assets and Zion(RJs former teammate) are an easy choice to throw out there in a possible trade for 2.

That's my guess

Wasn’t the knicks supposed to be in love with culver? If we just wanted Barrett, why wouldn’t we deal with them instead of jumping ahead? I’d flip if the pick was Barrett at 2
