Ty Lawson has some serious explaining to do ... because officials in Denver believe the Sacramento Kings star violated his probation and are gunning for a warrant, TMZ Sports has learned.
Lawson is currently on probation stemming from his 2015 drunk driving case in Denver -- but the Denver Probation Dept. has filed a complaint seeking to revoke his probation citing a potential violation.
Officials would not say what the alleged violation is ... but confirmed to TMZ Sports that a bench warrant has been requested so they can bring Lawson to court for a hearing on the matter.
We're told a judge has not signed off on the warrant at this point.
Some of the requirements of Lawson's probation -- which was scheduled to end on March 22 -- included monitored sobriety, 48 hours of community service, 52 hours of therapy and no marijuana use.
OK but which of those has he violated?
Maybe they could trade for Schroder if somehow things sour in ATL? The price wont be cheap, multiple/future picks would be involved and ATL will want Exum which isn't an option. ATL would need a major PG contingency plan themselves...
Turns 24 at the start of next season, fits right in with the core. His deal is CHEAP and he applies tons of pressure defensively, he's much faster than Hill and more of a natural PG.
I dont think his attitude would be much of an issue here, I think he'd fall in line. His scrappy hungry style of play is a great fit for this team moving forward and he's shooting 35% from 3.
Low probability this happens, figured it's worth mentioning tho. It'd be a game-changing trade no doubt. The team would look different with that type of speed at the helm, even playing this slow-ball style..
JLIII and Trey

Dennis also outscored the entire Warriors starting lineup in the first quarter of that game 19 points in 9 minutes and 9 FGA's..Coach Budenholzer sat Schroeder a whole quarter or something like that the previous game because Schroeder was seen having a shouting match with Dwight.
Not sure that's the kind of behaviour the Jazz would tolerate.
Remember that we had a chance to get him in the draft while DL was at the helm too but traded up to get Burke.

From what I've seen DL (and the Jazz) would rather choose a lesser player but with good character over a superior player but with questionable character.
Dante. Exum.
Time to take the training wheels off of him.
We just saw this lineup where Burks is defending Westbrook next to Exum.. The Jazz are in a position to put another development project into the mix if Hill walks.
Or a player like Patty Mills..
Exum's transitioned from project to solid rotation player. Been saying this all year. they should've jsut had him and the team take their lumps with him starting tbpfh and kept the lottery pick..
