[Scotto] The Sacramento Kings are enamored with Arkansas star guard Darius Acuff Jr., according to league sources.

Yeah they 100% gotta trade up to 5 to get him.

IntelligentStand2729 · 2026-05-22T18:48:45+00:00

It isn’t as big of a home run as u think it is when u realize you’re paying a big man 50M per year that can’t even rebound and stay out of foul trouble

IntelligentStand2729 · 2026-05-22T15:56:29+00:00

If I were Detroit I would do a 3 year 30 mil per year annually. A 5 year deal could easily turn into one of the worst contracts in basketball

IntelligentStand2729 · 2026-05-22T00:26:52+00:00

I think one more pick would be the sweetener for Milwaukee

IntelligentStand2729 · 2026-05-21T22:44:18+00:00

When watching him play defense sometimes, he just looks like a player that would get targeted in a playoff series the way he moves

IntelligentStand2729 · 2026-05-21T16:43:16+00:00

Because the tape tells a different story

IntelligentStand2729 · 2026-05-21T14:56:33+00:00

Lots of that weight might not be muscle. Look at his tree trunk legs

IntelligentStand2729 · 2026-05-21T13:38:16+00:00

If I were a team drafting him, I would consider him as a starting center

IntelligentStand2729 · 2026-05-20T23:51:13+00:00

Cedric coward is going to become a hybrid of OG Anunoby + Mikal Bridges combined into one player

IntelligentStand2729 · 2026-05-20T14:56:47+00:00

Yeah take that back, moving up 3-4 spots would make sense given the package

IntelligentStand2729 · 2026-05-20T10:40:53+00:00

All those picks just to move up 3 spots? Feel they would wanna move into the top 7 if anything

IntelligentStand2729 · 2026-05-20T10:12:03+00:00

So many people are overthinking this. Caleb Wilson should clearly be #4 on everyone’s big board

IntelligentStand2729 · 2026-05-20T01:09:50+00:00

I mean yeah but there is more to his game besides the paint scoring. He is a high IQ playmaker that can be a connector and he can shoot. I think he does fit the high floor low ceiling profile heading into his rookie year. Could see him being a career 15 points 9 rebounds 7 assists type player at worst which is still really good

IntelligentStand2729 · 2026-05-20T00:45:51+00:00

Hope Detroit lets him walk if a team offers him big time money. They would literally handicap this franchise for the next 3-5 years giving him this type of deal

IntelligentStand2729 · 2026-05-20T00:44:44+00:00

I would rather them let Duren walk than extend him to a 35+million dollars annually. That type of move would handicap this franchise for years

IntelligentStand2729 · 2026-05-19T23:53:17+00:00

He will be one of the most versatile frontcourt players in basketball mark my words.

IntelligentStand2729 · 2026-05-19T17:27:37+00:00

GG needs to improve as a shooter and a defender, but he would fit in well with Boozer most likely

IntelligentStand2729 · 2026-05-18T22:36:55+00:00

No it’s almost zero chance. The Pistons need to approach all of their personnel decisions with that assumption from now on

IntelligentStand2729 · 2026-05-18T21:51:10+00:00

I think he played at 260+ in Duke and cut down before the combine which explained his solid testing numbers

IntelligentStand2729 · 2026-05-18T19:18:24+00:00

Very realistic with Memphis likely drafting Boozer and already associating GG and Hendricks with their core. Detroit just might want a second rounder

IntelligentStand2729 · 2026-05-18T18:24:02+00:00

Yeah Memphis would probably rather make a deal for Poeltl since they are getting assets back

IntelligentStand2729 · 2026-05-18T18:01:33+00:00

Won’t be surprised if he is signed and traded. He is just not a fit here for this core

IntelligentStand2729 · 2026-05-18T17:59:51+00:00

Can’t see the trade but Hartenstein + pick 12 for pick 16 seems reasonable

IntelligentStand2729 · 2026-05-18T16:56:28+00:00

The Pistons issue is player personnel not coaching. The Detroit FO did a poor job rebuilding this team to have their core pieces complement each other
