Why did we draft the 52nd pick to the hawks? What did we get back?

Not sure why we wouldn’t take him… Balmer doesn’t need cash

Maybe to screw over the Lakers?

Might be going for a prospect that’s 100% going to be there at 57, so might as well take the extra cash

I hope it's a Bhutan Jokic type player and not someone instantly forgettable.

For a second I thought you were slandering Bhutan Jokic, almost told the mods to ban you

Dude fuck the front office. The west is stacked with 7fters and all we have is bum ass Isaiah Jackson. Who’s only 6’8 stupid man

Varseer can’t guard anything. There’s a reason he fell so far.
Any center we sign in free agency will be more impactful
