[Orion Bailey]

Trade all three for what now? to get higher? for role players? draft and develop? I don't like that. Doesn't fit the team currently. we are done developing and entering win now mode.

 

[BonesJones]

Bullshit.

A decent enough exercise in projecting value here, and they say the combo of 15, 20, 26 should get us between the #4 and #5 picks. Obviously this is different in each draft and depends on the teams involved.

So which pick are we going to have to burn to get rid of Meyers?

No one is going to trade us the 4th or 5th pick for our draft picks. That's silly.

I don't see Tatum, Fox or Monk as worth having three shots and solid big prospects. I would rather keep the picks or use them in trade from someone to help next year.

Although, I could also see trading 20, 26 and cash to get a second pick in the early-mid teens if there were a couple players we liked. That seems to be the best place to pick in this draft to me.

20+ 26 should equal the same value as as around 13. You don't think 13+ 15 gets us to mid lottery? Not that high in this draft perhaps given its top heavy nature, but I think we can easily climb to the 6-10 range. Last year, Kings traded away #8 for #13+ #28 + the worse Bogdanovic + a 2020 second rounder.
