NYRaider Posted July 14, 2021 Author Share Posted July 14, 2021 Brandon Boston Jr is an intriguing prospect, still has a ways to go as a shooter, and needs to fill out his frame. He came into the year as a projected top 10 pick, had his moments at UK, but struggled for the most part. He plays like a smaller Brandon Ingram in terms of his body and movement.

NYRaider Posted July 14, 2021 Author Share Posted July 14, 2021 The Warriors just worked out Josh Giddey and in the next two days are hotsting Tre Mann, Cameron Thomas, Davion Mitchell, Moses Moody, and Jalen Johnson. @J-ALL-DAY 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYRaider Posted July 14, 2021 Author Share Posted July 14, 2021 Moses Moody and Josh Giddey would be the best outcome for the Warriors, imo. @J-ALL-DAY 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texansfan713 Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 (edited) I hope this a smokescreen cause i dont wanna trade up to 1 even though I like Cade. Just stay put and take whoever Detroit pick and force them to take Green 1 if they like him. Rockets have the leverage in this situation.

Troy Weaver was behind the Russell Westbrook pick but the Pistons definitely have all of the leverage as I'm sure they'll take Cade #1 regardless because there's also a chance Houston passes on Green for Mobley and they could swing a deal with Cleveland. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only guy covering the Cavs that I'd give any merit to is Chris Fedor, and right now he's equally as convinced that we hang onto Sexton and see how he plays along with whoever we select as he is that we deal him before the season. His reasoning is that we have a high value on Collin, and aren't just going to move him to move him, the deal has to be right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cavaliers will have to agree to an extension with Sexton before the season begins or he'll enter restricted free agency by default next summer.

It’s the second time in the last three weeks Cleveland’s front office, led by general manager Koby Altman, have watched Kuminga in person. The first was at his pro day in Chicago on June 26. 50 mins ago – via Chris Fedor @ Cleveland Plain Dealer Edited July 15, 2021 by NYRaider Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And for the Cavs that’s not a bad situation at all. He won’t be moved before the season if the deal isn’t right. as far as the Kuminga stuff goes, to me it could mean a couple of things. 1. they like him a lot and are willing to be aggressive in working out a deal to get another top 7 pick to draft him. 2. they like him, but have someone else ranked similarly they would like to get, and are hoping that by showing interest it will create some confusion within another organization or two. 3. they are willing to trade down and pick up some additional assets and help. I know that we anticipated drafting between 5-8, so a lot of time was spent on that prospect group before the lottery took place. I’d really have to be swayed to not take Mobley to move back in all honesty, and if I did move back I’d personally want Barnes over Kuminga.
