Interesting thing about that is it could be Sacramento that Dallas would deal with if they ever wanted to remove the protection from our 2023 pick. I'm not sure you remove protection now unless you need to trade 2025 for some reason. Better to do it like Miami did...at the TDL once you have a pretty good idea you are not going to be a lottery team.
He mentioned a protected top 3 pick. Things could go haywire next year, but as of now that Dallas pick is probably viewed as a late first round pick. Maybe a top five protected Knicks pick and the Dallas pick? If they really wanted Ivey.
I was thinking who is going to be the tanking teams next year. Is it still OKC? Next years draft is suppose to be really impressive. A lot can change in the next year, but next years draft also may have the next big draft prospect evaluators have been waiting for. If true, you would expect 4-5 teams to look to extend their rebuild for at least another year. Who are those teams though?
