I think it's in Flagg's best interest (and the team's), to have a veteran PG that can be acquired in a trade. I'm just not in love with any of the current PGs in that second tier, and a rookie PG next year just doesn't excite me. On the other hand, I think a good rookie SG or combo guard along with a good veteran PG makes more sense and I think makes for a stronger frontcourt. It would immediately help with spacing, and allow us to move Klay.
In a nutshell, I think I'm just happier with the thought of a SG on this team as a draft pick. I suspect it's Burries, but I would be happy to trade down a spot or two for Carr and another first-round pick (even if that pick was in another year).
No issues with Carr in a trade down scenario where we get some extra picks (now or for the future). At 9, I'd go for Burries over him.
