Sucks for them but good for our pick.
Would be nice if we could send them Prince to fill the void but I guess they'll start Karasev instead.

Nets forward Mirza Teletovic has been ruled out for the remainder of the season after being diagnosed with a bilateral pulmonary embolus (multiple blood clots in the lungs), according to the team. Teletovic left last night’s game against the Clippers with shortness of breath, and was taken to a Los Angeles hospital. Tests there revealed the diagnosis. Teletovic will remain hospitalized in Los Angeles, receiving treatment and further testing, and won’t return to New York until he’s cleared to travel.

"We are lucky we have a very patient GM that isn't willing to settle for being good and coming close. He wants to win a championship and we have the potential to get there still with our roster and assets."

quoting 'Greg B' on RealGM after 2017 trade deadline.
Read that last line again. One more time.

How is this good for our pick?

If anything, it increases the chances that we actually pass the Nets at some point, in which case it decreases our pick.

Unless, he is missing next year and beyond as well, it won't affect any of the picks we have incoming from Brooklyn.

That's terrible news for Teletovic. Best wishes to him, it sounds like a very serious health issue that goes well beyond basketball.
