Does Kuminga have Brown’s IQ? Jaylen was way ahead of Kuminga

I’m seeing people reporting that Franz will be joining Moe in Orlando. Is Moe still under contract? It was my understanding he was only signed through the end of last year

Not according to Dunc’d On. But still, helps to try to see what these NBA guys are seeing.

Also curious about Iggy

Franz better put a condition in his contract that they have to bring Moe back for at least one season.

Davion Mitchell to Sacramento. Interesting pairing with him, De’Aron Fox, Buddy Hield (for now) and Halliburton. I imagine this means the Kings will move Hield.

Iggy will not be back. Mo maybe just because Franz? But with two more top 10 picks they have fewer roster spots

Kings are a shambolic franchise. Pick a 22 year old 6’2 guard 9th when you have a long term PG and SG?

Ziaire Williams… Not a fan of that pick at all from what I watched at Stanford.

I wonder if Bouknight struggled in private workouts or something

Well I imagine it means they’ll move Hield and try to play all 3 together simultaneously with Halliburton at the 3 spot, and then Mitchell and Fox splitting guard duties. Or those 3 are super interchangeable at the 1 and 2 spots so they got depth. Don’t really think I’d have went with a guard if I’m them but maybe this means they’ve solidified their backcourt for the next 5+ years.

I want to make a bet with someone that Livers will get drafted before Garza. If there are no takers then I’ll say Livers before a player of my opponent’s choosing

only if gambling is permitted on this forum of course

Watched Williams in EYBL and was suuuper high on him. Thought he was a top 4 or 5 player in the class at the time. His time at Stanford was a nightmare with lots on court stuff happening that was out of his control. That stuff surely played a large role in his off court issues. Sam Vecenie of The Athletic did a thorough breakdown on the top 100 players and he explained the entire situation Williams went through. He’s got high level starter upside imo.

I admit I’m a huge NFL draft geek, but the NBA draft is really fun with some drama (trades, salary dumps, etc.).

It’s hard to judge Kuminga’s IQ when he’s play hoops for like three years. It’s not there yet, he’s the youngest guy in the draft and a late starter.

He’s a great great athlete - the rest is a blank slate.
