RJB impacts winning at least as much as Zach Lavine . . .
Which is why it would be nice to have two of them.
The way it’s structured, we could lockup Randle then extend Lavine the year after.
Mitch Randle RJ Zach IQ. I’d worry about the backcourt D, but otherwise it’s pretty good. You get your three picks while still having options to retain important supporting players who can carry forward their roles.
Even just hesitating before you say yes is insane.
And hand the Bulls an unprotected potential lottery pick? Of course I'm hesitating for the time it takes to counter with the 2023 Dallas pick.
I like this approach better and would even sweeten it with a future second rounder in a year we have multiples.
If we draft a great guard who develops, Zach or IQ could find themselves in the D Rose / Lou Wil seat as the microwave second unit leader down the line.
