Luke Kennard?

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Locke brought him up on the podcast today and it got me thinking.....

Would Luke Kennard be a good fit? He has a team option next year for 14 million and I'm assuming the Grizzlies have cap issues.

He's probably the most quietest elite shooter in the NBA currently?

I'm sure he's a bad defender, but the advanced stats do not bare that out as DBPM has him just slightly below average.

can always use shooters

I really like Kennard, always been underrated IMO. Better as a defender+creator than given credit for. Would have to get rid of Clarkson, and that wouldn't leave much room for another guard if you want to resign Kris Dunn.

Pass... I think we end up doing a stealth but very real full season tank next year. We will do it while retaining Lauri and Collin.

Okay maybe we do trade one of them. I think we end up bottom 5-6 by playing 5 first or second year players in our rotation... so no room for the Nard Dawg.

If we tanking we need Juzang, Potter and Preston to play big minutes.

He's a witches hat defensively

So 3 straight years of tanking?

All while demanding taxpayer money for a new arena in Draper?

Hmmm

He’ll no!! I’m done with these types of guys. I want long athletic defenders that can shoot SOME.

Shouldn’t be too hard we will have three second year players and up to three rookies with two being low picks. Just commit to the young guys and no issues there.

Tank next year hard and not hope but if fate allows…. a key injury or 2 for a couple other teams in the league….wouldn’t be so terrible for us

I wouldnt hate it. Was a huge fan during the draft. Been quited saying I would take Kennard over Mitchell. Was wrong about that.
