Maybe, just maybe, the Nuggets can get off their bad Mason Plumlee habit.

[Craig_MiamiFL 2,624]

Knicks take Leandro Barbosa

EDIT: Barbosa is supposedly dubbed "The Future". Probably what sold the Knicks.

And get draft rights to Ante Tomic (Selected in 2008!!!!)

Only in the NBA 

[Craig_MiamiFL 2,624]

Leandro Barbosa reportedly headed to the TWolves from the Knicks.

Gonna teach Rubio and Culver how to shoot reportedly.

[TLEF316 5,048]

RJ Hampton looks ELATED.

[Craig_MiamiFL 2,624]

Bucks take RJ Hampton.

[Frostillicus 14,428]

RJ Hampton does not seem happy. 

[mr. furley 12,421]

ooh, i like this pick

do the Bucks get to keep it? or was it promised to a 2028 expansion franchise in a swap with the Knicks for their 2024 4th round pick, 3mm cash and an assistant coach to be named later?

[caustic 4,118]

Chris Haynes @ChrisBHaynes

Yahoo Sources: The fear is Golden State Warriors star Klay Thompson has suffered a significant Achilles injury. An MRI scheduled for tomorrow morning.

It’s going to the Pelicans afaik

RJ Hampton was just drafted.

ESPN confusing me. He's going somewhere.

He's getting traded to the Nuggets.

 

So NBA.

LOL at the old man in Hampton's house screaming "#### NO!" and throwing the Bucks hat across the room before realizing he was on camera

Jay Bilas: I didn't have him going 1st Round (Immanuel Quickly)

Probably another overseas/G league stash for OKC

[mr. furley 12,421]

of course it's being traded as part of a different trade deal that probably is residual from a trade in 2001

Pelicans trading that for another future pick

As much as I love what OKC and Nola are up to, the key is going to be moving up for an actual player they believe in at some point.

I'm gonna be pretty upset if Grant leaves. He is the piece that will make MPJ viable.

Wolves going with Tre Jones or Oturu?

Freakin' Boston.  😄😄😄😄😆😆

I like the player, but, well, nevermind.

Did I miss Payton Prichard's family celebrating there?

Sucks this FSU team didn’t get a chance to play for the title.

My last in person pro/college game was taking my 3 sons (oldest attends) to Clemson to watch them beat FSU. Great freaking game. Had seats right behind the hoop which were awesome (right there for the GW) and went onto the court after the win. Younger boys got selfies with the players and cheerleaders. Here’s the link in case you forgot:

I’m sure we were in there somewhere. Also, Deshaun Watson must have been there since we passed by an i8, or something like that, with a personalized license plate that I think was Watson4.

What did the Knick's get back in the Bolmaro trade?

@ShamsCharania

Sources: New York is trading No. 23 Leandro Bolmaro to Minnesota for Nos. 25 and 33.

Spike Lee was forced to stay with Cole Anthony for the draft.

Probably  

Your guess is better than mine at this stage.

 

[Frostillicus 14,428]

Well I'm at the stage where between the beer and the trades I have no idea who is going where. 

 

Nice. 

[SayWhat? 4,150]

So is this pick 28 the Wolves now?  This is so idiotic how they don’t “approve” trades for 17 days at draft time.

[mr. furley 12,421]

was that Nico Mannion in the ESPN 1st round draft group photoshopped pic they just showed?

Agreed.

McDaniels is a great high ceiling pick for Minnesota.  Great gamble.

[whoknew 8,973]

Some team should draft Xavier Tillman about now. They won't regret it.

Minnesota is acquiring Oklahoma City's Ricky Rubio, the 25th and 28th picks for a package that includes the No. 17 pick, sources tell ESPN.

 

So I think Jaden McDaniels is a wolf.
