    Will be interesting to see who they gave up since it’s a sign and trade.

    Edit:

    Seems it’s a 3-team deal

    Josh Green is being traded to the Charlotte Hornets in the Klay deal.

    Edit: Actually sounds like as it’s constructed them sending out Josh Green means they can just sign him outright so Warriors aren’t involved at the moment.

    A strange twist to the emerging details about Klay Thompson’s intention to sign in Dallas: The Warriors haven’t agreed to any Klay Thompson sign-and-trade at this point, per team sources. It could still happen, but more negotiation and finalization would still be needed if the Warriors are to be part of it. - Anthony Slater

    The Mavericks could sign him straight up without the Warriors help.




























  • I don’t really follow college and this year it was especially tough to judge it sounds like but here’s what John Hollinger said about the Spurs pick:

    I had Castle second on my board and really like the fit in San Antonio, where the Spurs need to upgrade their perimeter talent on both sides of the ball. Castle also will likely get plenty of chances to play on the ball given the Spurs’ dearth of point guard talent, which is notable given his stated preference of playing the point. His shooting is a question, but his ability to guard immediately and his high long-term ceiling make this a great pick.









  • According to NBA insider Marc Stein, the trade did not include any draft compensation and was a “straight-up swap.”

    Must be because he’s in his last year of his deal but yeah feels like they could’ve gotten more. Especially with the deals timing it feels like he wasn’t even shopped around?
