2025 NBA Draft (The PG-13 version) & No Spoilers

[Folster]

Now we have 36 and 41!

 

[Covert Rain]

EVERYONE seems relieved the KD error is over and that a new dawn is on the horizon for the Suns with plenty of fresh faces

I have thought about this part and I think no matter where you were on the spectrum of the KD trade, it's pretty much universal the feeling of relief. We know what we had with the team the way it was built. Now we have to figure out what we have now. If we can manage to move Beal it's just going to add to it.

 

[Covert Rain]

Now we have 36 and 41!

Gambo just said the Suns goal is to get a rotation player today. Sounds like they are looking to get a player that is ready to contribute now verses a project. He said the guys the Suns really want they will only be able to get one of them at 36 and the other guy will be gone at 41.

So maybe they will make another move to get both.

Not bad value

 

[Folster]

Gambo is saying Suns are going to make a big deal.

 

[Folster]

Sounds like the picks may be on the move in a bigger deal. "I'm expecting something big".

 

[Covert Rain]

Sounds like the picks may be on the move in a bigger deal. "I'm expecting something big".

Sounds like Gambo is saying that something else is brewing. They said he is on the phone getting the scoop. He said this isn't just about taking the pick and 36 and 41.

OK. Now we know. The Suns are in love with someone at 31. You are not that aggressive unless it's someone really high on your draft board.

 

[Proximo]

xc_hide_links_from_guests_guests_error_hide_media

Hmm, this might be to aggressive.

They want somebody specific.

I think I want Flemming 1st.

 

[Suns_fan69]

Man, what a crazy sequence of events. from 52 and 59 to 31 and 41

 

[Mainstreet]

YES, YES, YES.

Rasheer Fleming is one of my favorites!!!

[Proximo]

So Gambo just said Flemming will be the pick

 

[Covert Rain]

Hmm, this might be to aggressive.

They want somebody specific.

I think I want Flemming 1st.

If they are just looking for a ready to play rotation player? I think the aggressiveness is just fine. Later picks in this round are more likely to get you a project player.

They will take Flemming with the pick per GAMBO.

[Covert Rain]

Suns had Flemming as a top 20 player on their draft board.

 

[Proximo]

I like it, good athlete, shot 39% from 3. Decent size.

The knock on him is his ability to create his own shot.

 

[Proximo]

Gambo says suns top 3 are in this order
Flemming
Chaz Lenier
Tyreese Proctor

So if one of those 2 is on the board at 41 - expect that to be the pick

 

[Hoop Head]

Now we have 36 and 41!

I like that a lot more than where we stood yesterday in terms of draft capital. I'd say 36 is very close to 29 in value so losing that future 1st in the Williams trade doesn't seem as bad.

 

[Covert Rain]

Suns like Flemming, Lanier and Proctor. They are hoping to land Lanier or Proctor at 41.

 

[Proximo]

Well I think we have used about every 2nd we have now.

 

[SunsTzu]

YES, YES, YES.

Rasheer Fleming is one of my favorites!!!

If they can get a starting caliber PG somehow and move Green for real value this would be the most excited I've been since flaming out against the Mavs after the in 2022.

 

[Covert Rain]

I am saying it right now. The KD trade seems to be a good trade if this plays out how the way the Suns want. Not the best available trade....a good trade.
