Dude needed a 2.0 GPA and to pass an SAT with an 820. If he fucked that up with what was on the line, especially after already signing a letter of intent with numerous schools, he's dumb as bricks.
What's funny about the situation is his dad's character in Blue Chips was having to get tutored in the movie to be able to pass the SAT to play college ball lol

I understand what you're saying, but where were the parents? Why didn't the parents help him? Mommy and Daddy too busy being tv celebrities? Oh well, he can go play overseas for a year or two and then go to NBA. They all knew what he had to do, he is the child though.

Deandre Ayton says 'I know I'm going No. 1' after having workout with Phoenix Suns | NBA.com
Ayton said teaming with young Suns star Devin Booker would be "Shaq and Kobe 2-point-0."

Woj is usually pretty clutch with his reporting.

Lakers apparently have enough cap space for both Kawhi and Lebron. Been reading that if they can dump a bad contract or two like Luol Deng's they could probably even get Paul George too.
As much as I can't stand the Lakers, the league is definitely more interesting with good Lakers teams. If the Lakers can pull it off and get these guys, those Dubs vs. Laker games for the next few years will be epic.

Reading the Spurs won't make a trade with the Lakers for Kawhi, because the Lakers don't have anything they want in return. Spurs are talking to Boston about a deal, because Boston has some players the Spurs want. Kawhi has to go wherever the Spurs deal him. Apparently the Spurs are pissed Kawhi's camp leaked that he didn't want to be a Spur, before Poppovich had a chance to sit down with him.
Dude should have conducted business better instead of airing all of this shit out through his camp. Now he might miss out on both the Supermax deal and the team he wants to play for.

I have Trae Young going 6th to Orlando Magic
@Rasan
would you be happy with that selection for your squad?
I think teams would make a huge mistake letting him slip beyond that (or even as low as 6) but if he did I would expect Knicks to trade up or grab him @ 9
What he did was no easy feat. Watched probably 5 or 6 games of his and didn't like how that offense was set up, but expect him to be a good to outstanding player by four NBA seasons (by age 23)

Trae can be great, I just hope he adjusts his game when he gets drafted. I remember watching the Oklahoma vs Oklahoma State game where he went like 14-40 from the field, but everyone ignored that shitty shooting cause he had 48 points that was padded from free throws and 3's. Oklahoma also lost that game. Dude will get exposed hard in the NBA if he tries to chuck up as many shots in games like he did in college.
Would love to see him slow down and allow his team to set him up for shots off screens. He'll be deadly. I'm just worried he's gonna try and force his own plays and shots.
