The Sixers’ lack of young talent and the NBA’s trade market makes Lauri Markkanen an unlikely possibility
I’d be stunned if the Jazz are willing to part with Markkanen in a deal based solely on draft picks. Which, keep in mind, is all the Sixers have to offer . The Nets’ last five first-round picks: Noah Clowney , Dariq Miller-Whitehead , Cam Thomas , Saddiq Bey , Nickell Alexander-Walker . Would you trade Bridges for those five players?
That’s nine first-round picks so far. Put together a squad with Allen, Kuzma, Bey, Thomas, and Alexander-Walker and you might compete for the eight-seed in the East. But none of those five would be a top-three scoring option on a legitimate NBA Finals contender.
