BIG rumors that Charlotte is looking to trade up to #1 for James Wiseman. If this is true, it's a HUGE win for the DUBS because teams will be looking up to trade for LaMelo Ball or Anthony Edwards including ATL/PHX/DET/CHI/NYK.
Assets that can be had from each team looking to trade up that could help the franchise:
ATL - Deandre Hunter, Cam Reddish, John Collins or Kevin Huerter
PHX - Kelly Oubre or Ricky Rubio
DET - Derrick Rose
CHI - Tomas Satoransky or Lauri Markannen
NYK - Frank Ntilikina or Dennis Smith
Such a Jordan/Charlotte move.
In some ways it may be even better if either Edwards or Ball go number 1 since that way there's only 1 of the 2 left and one team will get desperate enough to pull the trigger. It also gives the Warriors more bargaining power since Wiseman is a realistic option at 2 (teams would call our bluff on going Edwards / Ball).
