Who should WE pick at #3 if we traded Lauri to Sixers?

[The Midnight]

A I R I O U S

Ace at 3, Tre at 5, and we ride.

That’s the dream.

Thats alot of iso shot chucking. I'm sure it won't matter, ball movement is for losers who can't get buckets.

Yep basketball is at the end of the day all about “buckets”.

We could field one of the greatest lineups ever.

Keyonte
JC
Tre
Ace
Kessler

Poor Kessler.

The ship has already sailed. There's not a folly enough GM in the league to donate assets while taking on Lauri's egregious contract.

One article I read claimed the trade 'caveat' would be we would have to take Paul George as well. lollll

 

[HadAnEffectHere]

Fischer on Stein's Substack said that the 76ers aren't likely to trade George at all or likely to trade out of the pick, but could trade down fwiw.

 

[HermanG]

Jake Fisher saying Philly is willing to trade down but not out, and they arent moving George at his current low value unless PG asks to be traded.

So it seems they may be eyeballing someone else than Bailey, and think they can get their guy later.

Yeah, I could imagine a situation where the 76ers prefer VJ and Kon to Ace and Tre and are sending out feelers to the Jazz to see if they really like one of Tre or Ace to try to get them to move up to #3 for #5, #21, and the Lakers 2027 pick.

Don't worry, Ace says he practices all the impossible jump shots.
