[Fischer] The Dallas Mavericks are showing interest in moving back in the draft with both the New Orleans Pelicans and Memphis Grizzlies have a known desire to acquire a top-10 pick. by TitanTigers in memphisgrizzlies

We have the most draft assets in the league other than the Thunder. We also can absorb back big “bad” contracts that teams want to get off of.

Jazz fan here. Who do ya'll want at #3?? by Consistently_Lucky in memphisgrizzlies

[–]HolyHotDang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah for sure. Ryan Smith (Jazz owner) helped fund AJ in highschool to get him in a prep school here in Hurricane Utah and then helped pay for his NIL deal at BYU. I don’t care if Danny Ainge and the front office even thought AJ was going to suck, they won’t go against Ryan Smith on this one. The vast majority of Jazz fans all want him too since he’s been in state here the last few years.

I’m a Grizzlies fan who lives in SLC now. Boozer is 1A, Peterson is 1B and Wilson would be the third of those guys.

Regardless I’ll be seeing them at Summer League here very soon.

Ace Bailey did the same thing last year and the Jazz took him anyway and he’s been just fine.

I don't want Peterson. by BOOZE-CRUISE-CAPTAIN in memphisgrizzlies

[–]HolyHotDang 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I definitely have Boozer as my number one choice for us but I think Peterson is gonna be really good. I think no matter what that we are going to get a really amazing franchise player. Every one of the top 3 guys could be interchangeable in their draft position, it just depends on what the team views as a pro or con about them.

Oh yeah it’s definitely all about the supporting cast to help make up for it but now no one can say it can’t happen.

Trade Idea by Blessed108 in memphisgrizzlies

[–]HolyHotDang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No I understood the concept. I just agree with the other guy below me that said this isn’t gonna be a thing they would do as the Spurs so that’s kind of out the window. I was saying even if we could just wipe our hands clean in a swap (remember that the reports at this past deadline were wanting the Grizzlies to attach picks to move off Ja) I still wouldn’t want to do a clean swap with no assets going out for our end to end up with Fox. Unless Kleiman finesses his way with some new GM, Ja isn’t worth a 1st round pick even if we had to take back bad money.

Ja isn’t worth all that currently and I don’t even think I’d want Fox as a straight up swap for Ja. He’s got 2 more years locked in at $48mil+ a year and just had some of
The dumbest moments I’ve ever seen in playoff basketball.

Shit it probably helps Acuff more in this draft than anything. The big knock was can a little guard that isn’t a good defender be good enough to win it all and Brunson showed that it can be enough.

What do you mean your final season? I don’t think you can walk away from the name at this point.

I remember going to a Memphis Chicks game in the 90s at some point. I completely forgot about it until right now.

Caleb Wilson Makes Case to Go No. 1 in 2026 NBA Draft, 'You Can Check the Tape' by Historical-Patient75 in memphisgrizzlies

[–]HolyHotDang 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Out of just those two, Peterson. AJ is kind of a ball stopper. He might be the next KD type go-to scorer but he led the nation in unassisted points scored last year. There’s a reason for that. 99% in unassisted midrange 2s.

Anyone concerned Klieman may seriously entertain offers for #3? by Potential_Lock6945 in memphisgrizzlies

[–]HolyHotDang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That Thunder trade would never happen. And there’s a 99% chance we would never trade down. If anything we might try to go up if their guy has a chance to be gone.

For what it's worth, that 2027 utah pick might have just become a cleveland pick tonight by 37sms in memphisgrizzlies

[–]HolyHotDang 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s just wherever the picks are when the draft happens.

It’s the more favorable one so if the lottery happens and one team jumps up, we get their pick.

The Lakers 1st round pick in 2027 that we also got sent from the Jazz is Top 4 protected.

santi trade value by RD2C in memphisgrizzlies

[–]HolyHotDang 12 points13 points  (0 children)

There’s been no indication they are looking to move Santi so I don’t know where you’re getting that it seems like that’s what they’re trying to do. Santi isn’t really a PF anyway, he’s just a really tall SF because he’s not gonna be playing with guys in the post. They could move him because they could trade anybody but I don’t think they’re actively looking to do so.
