Possible big win for the Mavs and other teams with Bulls losing pick in Lotto. They have basically can sign one player in FA to get better and are much further away than that. Bodes well that Lavine will be on the market and looking to switch teams with another Bulls mediocre season. They seemed like a team that was 100% trading that pick if they had kept it.
Two possible teams for KP deals in Orlando and GS kept their picks (Orlando got the Chicago pick as mentioned).
Western Conference teams did not jump up. All the top picks stayed east except for Rockets pick. In a top loaded draft that's big.
Hornets and Spurs also didn't move up and are logical KP trade destinations.
KP trades became more feasible IMO.
