I expect Masai is trying to move one of the contracts for a pick but as to whether he'll succeed or not is anyone's guess. As Apollo said, I can't see anyone wanting to give up a top 10 pick for any of our big contracts, not without giving us one of their big contracts in return.

Ian's report is accurate. The Knicks are reportedly exploring the option of trading up to the #4 spot in the draft, currently owned by Memphis. The Grizzlies have been adamant about shedding Chandler Parsons' contract in any deal. https://t.co/z4Yp0w6hfq

The Grizzlies are looking to trade out of the No. 4 slot, and they have talked to the Knicks about a deal, according to sources. New Knicks coach David Fizdale met with Bamba on Wednesday at the players’ hotel, and the Knicks, who have the ninth pick, are high on him, sources said. Memphis is looking to unload the hefty contract of Chandler Parsons, who is owed $49 million over the next two years and played for Fizdale with the Grizzlies.
Can you imagine a Unicorn/Bamba combo at the 4/5? I know everyone is going small ball but that's the kind of combo that could force teams in the east to adjust.Last edited by Apollo; Thu Jun 21, 2018, 07:35 AM.

The Cavaliers are not actively shopping All-Star forward Kevin Love heading into Thursday's NBA draft, multiple sources told ESPN on Wednesday. Furthermore, regardless of what decision LeBron James makes about his future in Cleveland, the Cavs have interest in keeping Love next season, sources said.

If the Raps buy a 2nd round pick, they should think about selecting Justin Jackson of Maryland. I was keen on him last draft, but he withdrew his name. Prototype long 3&D switchable wing..... comps physically to Kawhi & OG. Was injured last year which prevented him from having the breakout season most predicted. Oh, and he's from Toronto.

It’s finally here....only 10 hours to go till the Suns are on the clock.
Who makes the first reach and for who?
Does anyone in the top 5 trade down?
Will the Kings make an inexplicably smart move for the first time in 28 years at 2 ?
Does Ujiri get the bat off his shoulder and get into the top half of the first round?
Corollary: If yes...who is moving teams?
Does Cleveland trade the 8th pick and Love for a player or a move into the top 3?There's no such thing as a 2nd round bust.
