Woj: Atlanta Acquires NO's No. 4 Pick

[perks-a-beast]

Strange theyre targeting Hunter. I’d figure they’d be going after Culver..is Hunter really that much better than Taurean Prince, who they just gave away for nothing?

[MattyIce]

With Hunter going #4, I wonder where Garland falls? Could the C's somehow get him?

Cavs will take Garland. Guaranteed.

and deal with Le'queen's agency

Cavs will take Garland. Guaranteed.

When their two best young players are both already point guards, one of them drafted #8 last year?

That is true. I read somewhere they had their eye on him so I guess they could dump one of their other PGs for more picks if they feel he is transitional player.

I think so.  Hunter is absolutely the player I’d have traded up to get.

Speaking of Cleveland would Danny still go after Love in a trade?

[A Future of Stevens]

I feel like Culver would be an awesome player to pair with Sexton in Cleveland.
Then Garland to the Suns.
Chance Ainge moves up for Coby White?

Anthony Davis has turned into:

- Lonzo Ball
- Brandon Ingram
- Josh Hart
- No. 8 pick in 19
- No. 17 pick in 19
- No. 35 pick in 19
- L.A.' 21 pick if top 8
- L.A.' 22 pick if not
- L.A. swap in 23
- L.A.' 1st in either 24 or 25

And got rid of Solomon Hill's contract.

No chance Chicago doesn’t come out of this draft with one of Garland Culver White

I’m not a Garland fan, but I think the Suns would trade out of that spot.  They want a veteran PG.

Beyond insane. And we thought Danny fleecing of Nets would never be topped. There is potential for this trade to be the best ever. One big injury to Davis or a bad experience in LA that chases him out(would love that to happen).

I think Atlanta have been incredibly managed the last few years.

Doncic?

And it was literally announced seconds after I posted this.

Stick a pin in this one. We could have beaten this offer.

Could have does not equal should have.

It depends how you think about Darius Garland, and I guess Terry Rozier. We lost Kyrie and we don't have a point guard that can break the defense off the dribble and shoot like this kid can. I don't think Rozier is the answer, and Garland might be a great long term piece next to Brown and Tatum.

If we do something better with those assets, then great, but Garland might be very good. We need a point and we need a young big. That's what assets are for.
