Bleacher report recently put out a mock draft, and they had us trading up. The trade was our 3 first rounders for the 7th pick owned by the Pistons. They had us taking Tyrese Haliburton with that pick. Any thoughts on such a trade? Think it's realistic?
There have been multiple legit members of the NBA media who have speculated on a 14,26,30 for 7 trade. I do think this is a legit possibility.
I also wouldn’t be shocked to see R Williams added to the deal with the Cs receiving a future 2nd or Porier added to the deal with the Cs giving up a future 2nd.
Where I buy the trade I am not sold that Haliburton would be a DA target. I suspect the trade up target would be one of Wiseman, Okongwu, Hayes, Advija, or Okoro. I light Haliburton but think he is over all limited and best suited as a higher minute 6th/7th man. I’m not sold that his frame will allow him to defend at a high level early as a young player in the NBA. I think the more “blue chip “ type prospects will continue to take percent for DA in the lottery.
