    How about bringing in Killien Hayes to work out as the young quick guard.? We can sign him to a 10 day and see how he looks. I’ve seen him as a quick guard in the league playing defense.

    Okogie, if available, would be the perfect fit.

    Jones, Ellis Wiggins price tags are too high

    he was available at the vet min this summer. several of us listed him as a good pickup, but alas, we must employ bronny. but houston's got him in the regular rotation, so that's a no-go.

    i won't give up on ellis until the trade deadline passes. his UFA is a little problematic, so i'm not sure sac can get as much as they'd like to for him. that recent article said a protected 1st was the likely current rate on him, and referred to him as "divisive" in terms of talent evaluation (something evidenced on this very forum). i'm sure sac wants nothing to do with sending him here, but if we don't make any other moves, we are most definitely a threat to sign him outright this summer, with them getting nothing. knecht and top-5 protected swap rights beats the hell out of that.

    not expecting a win tonight with the injuries

    clips will play like its game 7 as usual and especially tonight because a loss would put them dead last in the west

    Normally I’d agree but Luka seems to always want to destroy the Paper Clips so I’m hopeful for a win.

    Rui Hachimura (right groin soreness) has been downgraded to out for Saturday's game vs. the Clippers, the Lakers announced. Deandre Ayton (left elbow), Austin Reaves (left calf) and Gabe Vincent (lower back) are all also out.

    :Magicwow4: ... they won't just let me ever stop worrying about losing to these bleeps. We don't have enough do we? Thiero gets much more burn? How about Manon? Would they play him on the 2-way when Bronny is listed out with South Bay? Timme too? For the love of whatever .... don't rack up huge minutes on Luka, Smart or Gramps.

    On the other hand, Harden is coming back from an injury and Rui might be able to go, you never know. Should be interesting.
