Sexton seems like a hot commodity right now.

A writer covering the Raptors threw out this package:

Sexton/29/32 for Brown/19/31

Interesting, but it’s not enough (not really even close… unless someone is available at #19 that shouldn’t be… and even then it’s not enough).
 
Sexton deserves a chance. Unfortunately, I'm not sure this coaching staff/FO gives him that chance. It might be like Kessler where if he makes a jump, it won't come here. Unlike Kessler, however, I don't think we'd be getting a good deal.

I generally agree, in large part because the Jazz have a small pile of players they're trying to move. With Clarkson, Collins, Sexton and maybe even Kessler available, the Jazz are like a merchant selling watches on the sidewalk.

Yeah, I can see the Jazz offer, in some combination, Sexton, Kessler, and their current picks if they tried to move up. If they did this (to move up from 10), my guess is they would target Sheppard or Castle.
 
Currently I would guess Sexton is dealt at the deadline when he is killing it. I just dont see Ainge taking a bad deal just to get off Sexton, but maybe there will be an element of not wanting to repeat the 2022/2023 season again.

I think he would take someone to the woodshed for him though.

I could see the Lakers wanting him. JJ is a really smart dude and probably sees the value in Sexton.

Is Hardy going to give him that chance? I think he deserves it....doubtful he gets it though. I don't think he will be Brunson if we let him loose (i.e. top 5 MVP guy)....but he might be as good as someone like Fox (borderline all star).

Lakers trade for stars. They arent going to give us a ton for a guy without a name.

And just FYI, we could trade a player still to Minny for a complete removal of protections on the 2029 which I think long-term is high value smart move. Maybe send them Clarkson for that removal.

And they could use Clarkson in the playoffs.

Yes, let’s make a team who owes us picks better… again.

I'm a little worried on the shot. I think he can guard up but won't be as strong as Holiday or Smart... those guys are like strongest guards in the league though. It looked like he stood guys up when they tried to go through him but in the nba that is a different level of dude. I think White/Caruso/Quickley/Brunson all have components I can see.

Agree. Carter won't grow into Smart or Holiday. He's good all-around player though, but I always tend to stay away from draft prospects who look good against younger players.

I don’t think Dilly can be a decent defender. That’s a bigger (less-fixable) problem.

Dilly’s got great moves but has nothing to give defensively. When I watched Garland defend against Banchero in the playoffs, Garland looked like a fly defending against a bull. It was comical.
