Interesting. I would assume Simmons is on the trade block this second.

Has anyone seen if Haliburton's combine numbers have come out yet? I saw some of the players numbers are coming out and there have been some crazy numbers. Tyler Bey from Colorado set the vert record for forwards which is pretty impressive and I think the 6th best of all time for any position, but the vert i thought was even crazier was Udoka Azubuike's; 41 max vert and a standing vert of 37 which set the record for centers and he has over a 7'7 wingspan. Saw another KU guy got close to a record as well when Dotson ran 3.02 3/4 court sprint. Donovan Mitchell only player with a faster time.

Also seems to really be trending to Ball for the first pick.

Any T-Wolves fans out there?

I think I'd like them to draft Edwards if they can't work out a trade.

Ideally, I'd love for them to trade with the Hornets so the Hornets can take Wiseman, and then the Wolves are still guaranteed to get Edwards or Ball.... plus whatever else they can get from the Hornets in the deal.

Seems like I've seen a lot of projections pointing to the Wolves taking Ball with the first pick. I'm not totally against that, but it does seem like he's either going to be a stud or a bust..... where I think Edwards is a safer choice.

Lakers making some good moves imo. They should be better than last year.

Nothing about this trade makes any sense....They are similar shooters overall, Wall being a better 3p shooter, but a worse rebounder, and has had injury problems the last 2 years.
I'm still assuming Harden just didn't want to play with him. But what do I know Harden also wanted to be traded to a team that already has high volume guys.

Miami newspaper reporting Heat interested in Harden and Tyler Herro could be available. Jimmy and Bam aren't.

I don't get why Pat Riley would do this.

After watching the Wolves last night.... I'm thinking they might have made a mistake taking Edwards #1. I know it's only one preseason game, but he does kinda look like he doesn't care much..... which was the big knock on him going into the draft.
