If his name was Tim Henderson and he played for Iowa State last year, none of this hype would be going on.
No, that's superstar value and Scoot has proven NOTHING yet. Furthermore, our 1sts are all pretty good (own, unrestricted from Atlanta, lightly protected from Toronto and Chicago -somewhat-). If they were 1sts like OKC is flooding the league with (lottery protected, far away in time) then MAYBE. But deals like this are the reason franchises end up hopeless for a decade or more. If the opportunity isn't there, DON'T FORCE THE ISSUE, just WAIT... do your homework and stay vigilant and the opportunity will come.

Athletic writer talking about the Raptors and what they should do this off-season proposed Malachi Flynn for one of the Spurs surplus second rounders.
I’ll be the first to admit I didn’t watch one Raptors game this past season and have zero idea about him.
You're only allowed one Malaki per team.
that new CBA is tricky
Personally, if the Spurs keep the 33 and they want a PG, I'd go for Marcus Sasser or similar. I don't think they'll use the pick in the 40s.
I love Scoot!
Absolute No from me...
If they can move Graham, I can see them targeting Mills or Joseph and if they can trade into the late lottery to draft a PG/combo guard, that probably becomes even more likely.
Depending on their moves, the Nets may be happy to just let the Spurs take Mills to be rid of his contract. Something nominal with a SRP could be done perhaps.
Graham isn’t a bad chucker. Good trade filler too. He’s a good asset right now.
I like Sasser’s game a lot. He’s got a lot of skill and can stroke it from 3. A little smaller than you’d like obviously at 6’2, which is why he’ll fall to the back end of the First Round (that and his age), but he’s a guy who I think can definitely be an impact player in this league down the line. He competes hard on the defensive end too which you like to see. I don’t think he makes it to pick 33 though. Think he goes in the 25-30 range.
It’s too bad Markquis Nowell is like 5’8. He was one of the best PG’s in CBB this season on 18/8/3/3 averages. Kid could really fill it up offensively and is a great passer. He showed out big time in the tournament too. Big shot taker, big shot maker. Plays with a ton of heart. He won’t even sniff the league at his size though. For shame.
I agree, but then it'd be a question of necessity, both in terms of archetype and allocation of roster spots.
That's why my sense is Mills would be more so pending what happens with Graham.
As much as I’d love Patty back in SA, he seems pretty redundant with Devontae Graham on the roster. I actually though Graham played pretty well down the stretch of the season for us. He’s not the future obv, but I’m kind of intrigued to see what he can do with more playing time.
Agree, but Mills would be sort of the Dieng of the team next year. They need to hit the salary floor somehow, too.
Fair enough. Would be pretty cool seeing Patty back in SA tbh. And he’d get some PT as much as we rest guys. I’m all for it. Better than him rotting away on BKN’s bench.
No. That’s the haul for an All NBA player, not a prospect. That’s more than BKN got for KD.
We should take him at 44 for the Wemby/Nowell photo ops alone.
there is a PG, who is very good, very young, and who may be able to play more for his club...Ja Morant...let's keep an eye on this file!
Probably not a popular opinion but I feel SA would be a good place for Jalen Suggs. I loved watching him play in college and he really had that playmaking vision. But not sure if that's been tainted in his years in Orlando now.
I would LOVE Jalen Suggs, I don’t think they’re ready to move on just yet unless it’s for good value
I think they've put him in a bad spot, forcing him to be an off guard, and he'd be way more comfortable in like a George Hill role.
There are three players I wouldn't mind the spurs drafting if they can move up into the 16th slot from a trade with Utah.
Jordan Hawkins, Kobe Bufkin or Jalen Hood-Shifino. One or more of these players will be there at 16. And getting 16 won't cost you a large haul of future draft picks.
They will address one of the biggest needs pg or shooting with any of these picks.
Keyonte George
Gregory Jackson II
Kris Murray
Rayan Rupert
Bilal Coulibaly
Kobe Bufkin
Jordan Hawkins
Dariq Whitehead
Jalen Hood-Schifino
Of these 9 players I think at least 6 of them will be available at 16. I'd be happy with any of them for different reasons. Now, I'd prefer PG or shooting be an attribute of the pick if I were ranking them for what the Spurs need, but ultimately there are cases to be made for any of them.
Picking for the Spurs, how would you rank those 9, specifically?
