Not sure that the Knicks have the ammo to get the 4th pick straight up, they'd likely need a 3rd team to be involved.

Dont think they would give up Barrett.
Im not sure Grimes really moves the needle at all. The Kings need depth for sure. Maybe Burks/Obi/11?

They'd need a future pick or two in there as well. My thinking is the Kings get a future pick, then trade #11 to Detroit for Grant to get some win-now help... maybe NY acquires some picks with Obi, Quickly, to route Sacramento's way.
There isn't an obvious deal there.
If there's one player in this draft who can put up 25/9/6 and carry a team in the playoffs, it's Banchero. Not sure why Houston would want to trade out of that pick.
Trade down and draft Sochan and get additional assets like a boss team.

On the news side the Salt Lake Tribune and Deseret News have a story about the veteran free agent camp the Jazz are currently holding. Rather than repeat them, I will note there are some interesting names there. Rather than buying a draft pick or picks, the Jazz might be better off signing one or more of these guys.

Would only help him by putting him on a better team which would let him reach his potential more easily.Sochan at 16

Interesting… Daniel’s to Indy is kind of hilarious… I guess you can never have too many guys like Tyrese and Daniel’s. They likely aren’t the risk taker types but I’d think they’d take a bigger swing as they need a star. I figured Sharpe was too risky for them.
I don’t get the Dieng live especially with Sochan and Eason in the board… feels like a too smart too cute move. I just think those guys are more proven and have as much or more upside. Dieng is the guy that is mocked in the lotto based on hype but actually goes in the 20s.
Givony said Terry was riding fast… seems low for Moore… I like him in the 20s.
Once Murray is off the board, I could see Daniels going at any pick. He can play at the 1 or 2, so he should be able to play with Haliburton.
Dieng is an ideal archetype. I can see him going late lottery due to his 2-way potential. He's solidly better than Ziaire Williams who went lottery last year.
I could see Terry ending up in the late teens. He's as valid a pick as wings like Brown and Beauchamp, and he's shown a more developed skillset, especially as a secondary creator.
Someone needs to sell me on Johnny Davis. He's got good size and toughness for a guard. Numerically he comes out in the same ballpark as Quentin Grimes.
