Sources: Chicago is trading Braden Smith to the Indiana Pacers for Kam Jones, future swaps and cash.

Pacers are trading for the No. 38 pick, sources say. It'll be Braden Smith.

Feels like a RC guy.

[SleepingHero]

Knicks yet again take my guy for no apparent reason.

Kayil off the board.

Still can't believe IND lost their lotto pick this year for Zubac

Maybe they'll also duplicate the part where we find out in 30 minutes that the most confusing trade ever is sending him to Dallas.

There was a *very believable* rumor circulating around the NBA that the Pacers were quite interested in Braden Smith, a player they saw more than literally any other team for the last four years. It looks like they'll get him.

[dirkfansince1998]

Really liked Mitchell but the Mavs probably aren't in the position to add even more non shooters.

12 team trade. 15 2nds. 

Lock it in.

Oweh to OKC.

They always just make great solid picks. Hate how competent they are.

Just in: The Detroit Pistons are trading C/F Isaiah Stewart to the Memphis Grizzlies for three future second-round picks, sources tell ESPN. Pistons clear Stewart's salary and pick up assets while Grizzlies acquire a 25-year-old as a rugged frontcourt piece.

That's it? Great deal for Memphis. We're going to have to lower our expectations for PJ/Gaff/Naji.

Memphis is trading these same three second-round picks that the Grizzlies received from the Pistons last night, sources say, back to Detroit, in order to land Isaiah Stewart.

[SleepingHero]

Surprised Vessar is still on the board.

Funny how the 2nd round isn't all about size. Teams are taking risks.

Would rather just keep them at this point.

Not like PJ Gaff or Naji are bad players.

LOL

How long until they give them back again?

[SleepingHero]

Bradley still available.

Maybe the Mavs can get him.

I think that's what they'll do. Maybe they get a real offer at the deadline.

[omahen]

Spurs actually drafted four players in this draft?
