@paydayfantasy Who is the 2nd #2 in the OKC picture? OKC definitely wins with two SGAs.

@daniellevine cc @TheAGILELawyer 🤣🤣🤣

[Mark Hammervold @markhammervold]

@SleeperMemphis @JoeMullinax Even setting aside Hartensteins significant positive value, why would OKC give up #17 to dump Hartenstein when they have a team option on him?

[Mark Hammervold @markhammervold]

@FFBallAppraiser @darrenrovell @BetMGM The way this is written suggests it was an in-season trade before December 3. I have no idea what trade he could be talking about.

@405Fan @JWeinbachNBA 🎯

[Mark Hammervold @markhammervold]

@SteveThunderfan The salary structure is very similar to a late round 1st, which was Mitchell’s best case scenario pre-draft.

[Mark Hammervold @markhammervold]

@T_Neal @BasketballGuruD Hartenstein would like a word

[Mark Hammervold @markhammervold]

@benjamingodbold @LegionHoops So screwed. Wouldn’t want to be them! (They also have a bunch of extra picks to make a trade with one of these expansion teams).

[Mark Hammervold @markhammervold]

@jacobinfante24 Only 9.9 RAS? He’s no Van Der Berg

@BookitWithTrent Alltime photo!

[Mark Hammervold @markhammervold]

@Sam_Vecenie With the reporting of these prospects declaring (Ament, Peat), does it mean they’re very likely to actually stay in?

[Mark Hammervold @markhammervold]

@jacobinfante24 Tiers for rd 2 picks?

[Mark Hammervold @markhammervold]

@EdHuslik @CoreyDeMoss You won’t find a bigger fan of Presti or Ous than me.

2022 was an alltime draft haul, even though Ous didn’t work out in OKC.

[Mark Hammervold @markhammervold]

@EdHuslik @CoreyDeMoss Yup, but he still made Ous the selection there. Duren went 13. Braun went 21. Kessler went 22.

Jaylin Williams was also still on the board!

[Mark Hammervold @markhammervold]

@SteveThunderfan DAL losing the tiebreak was also a small win for the 2028 pick swap.

[Mark Hammervold @markhammervold]

@jacobinfante24 What about Tiernan in the 2nd? Could also shift inside to G next year if Ozzy comes back to form.

[Mark Hammervold @markhammervold]

@thejfc @SteveThunderfan @AndrewKSchlecht LAC doesn’t control its own pick until 2027.

If I were LAC, I’d also look into trading Kawhi to Philly for Paul George + control of their own 2028 and 2029 1sts back.

[Mark Hammervold @markhammervold]

If LAC gets #5/6 from IND and OKC stays at #11/12, I could see OKC trading up for Keaton Wagler.

Wagler is such a Presti guy.

Makes sense for LAC bc they can get their ‘27 first back and the value at picks 5-8 is PGs (they have Garland).

@SteveThunderfan @AndrewKSchlecht @Sam_Vecenie @CoachBryceSimon @KeithSmithNBA @SamQuinnCBS @HPbasketball @405Fan @Rylan_Stiles

[Mark Hammervold @markhammervold]

@thejfc @SteveThunderfan @AndrewKSchlecht We’ll see how the rules and top of the ‘27 draft shake out, but I still think LAC’s 2027 1st is more valuable to LAC than OKC. That could help a trade get done if OKC loves Wagler.
