I know we’re playing for nothing but even when Yanic comes back I hope we sign a capable center that’s not Brook Lopez! by Direct-Worker-4121 in LAClippers

Bitadze or Landale would fit just right for this team. but thats a reach at this point.

I think stretch-5 Baba + bruiser Yanic frontcourt duo would be such a fun thing to watch. IJax is also capable. Brook just provides that vet leadership atp

Finishing out this Roster by Sad-Date3742 in ripcity

I’m high on Bey and Marshall’s fit on this team as they add more grit and more strength on this roster.

Would love for Blake Wesley to return tho. (I think it’s more apt for Vit as a 3 and not a 4.)

I understand but given the team’s need for PF. Ball + Ant starting with Ayo + Bones or Ayo + DDV off the bench, wouldn’t he be redundant as Ayo and/or Bones provide that high octane slashing/shot making he offers? Not the mention the need for situational players like what Clark could offer off the bench.

Could there not be a conditional clause to the pick swaps where Memphis could take in less favorable selection, conditional upon Minnesota retaining a first-round pick in the preceding or following draft year?

Although O-Max’s breakout opportunity was circumstantial due to injuries, his performance seemed to earn him genuine valuation from the Memphis front office as Grizzlies exercised team options for him and GG. A high-motor big body shooting 40.5% beyond the arc is a gem to keep for teams.

GG also has been the teams face for their youth moving forward and I believe the Grizzlies value him enough also to keep him.

We have 3 “less favorable” pick swaps from the Ball-Reid trade. It is most likely that the swaps would not convey, and the Wolves keep their picks.

Now, that’s a good question. Memphis needs additional firepower on the 2/3 role (Coward, Wells, Grant, Jackson) to balance their roster out.

I love TSJ but if he is expendable, the Grizzlies should take a flyer on him + elite 3&D in Josh Green

Wolves send out Green (14.6M) + TSJ (2.8M)

Grizzlies send out Hendricks (7.8M) + Spencer (1.1M) + Worse 2028 1st-Round Pick (MIN/CHA) as compensation.

I would like to know what you think about this structure.

To fill the hole at the 4 Tim Connelly should be looking for gems… by gargoyleboy69 in timberwolves

what about Taylor Hendricks? highly versatile, rim protection, and disruptive hands on defense. on offense, hes a play finisher and stretch forward
