Nico, please draft Vrenz Bleijenbergh. Thanks.
Well the Pelicans have the 35th, 40th and 43rd pick. Bleijenbergh seems nailed on for one of their picks as an overseas stash. Depending on how much they rate him, you´d probably have to target the Knicks/Thunder at #32 and #34. Since the Thunder have three and the Knicks two first round picks already, it shouldn´t be that hard to buy one of their picks.
Though of those in a realistic range, I still want Jaden Springer the most. Maybe the Knicks would be interested in #19 + #32 + Knox for Brunson + Kleber.
You draft Springer as the Brunson replacement and Bleijenbergh as the Kleber replacement.
That for example would be a trade I could see a GM want to do (because he believes the draft selection X or fallen angel Y has huge potential), but Cuban rejects it cause it would likely weaken the team for next season.
Such a trade should 100% be the decision of the GM, but I somewhat doubt it would and will be.
