2023-24 Around the NBA Thread

[Hoop Head]

Still doesn't answer my question. If you are out of the ranges mentioned and are trading into that range, it currently doesn't look like you can get the medical info. Thus: "What if a team is trading up on draft night? You could be out of the draft range, but be moving up to get a guy. I think the whole league needs access, but it should be VERY strict. Maybe read only documents that can't be copied?"

If a player fails a physical then trades can be voided so I'd imagine that could come into play.

Klutch is losing their leverage slowly but surely. As LeBron ages and becomes less of a factor, they haven't had the sway they used to. Once LeBron is gone, I wouldn't be surprised if Klutch leaves the NBA shortly after.

That is part of the plan going forward. Although it will be only be available to teams in range to select the player. Like the Suns wouldn't have been able to get Wemby's medical info because there was no way they could have selected him.

Combine to be required for NBA draft selection

Starting in 2024, players who decline to fully participate in the combine will be ineligible for the NBA draft, according to a memo obtained by ESPN.

These are welcome changes, as the draft should not be controlled by players and agents.

Too bad the Suns the don't have another season under the old system.

And the Suns don't have a pick during this CBA cycle.




Yes, I know we have one every other year. It's called a joke.

Although, the Suns will have some team's first round pick in the 2024 draft and every other draft unless they trade the rights to the player away.

So far as I've seen, we still have 2024 first round and second round picks. One each.

Again, back to the medical, Haliburton dropped out of the top ten. So Sacramento would not have had a chance to look at his medical records. Just interesting.

Yes they would. Did you read the article?

There will be limits on sharing medical information among teams based on the projected draft range of top players. For example, the projected No. 1 pick will have his medical information shared only with teams picking in the top 10. Players ranked 2-6 will be shared with teams in the top 15, and players 7-10 with teams in the top 25, with the exception of potentially life-threatening injury or medical conditions that render a player unfit to perform his duties as a professional basketball player, in accordance with the Fitness-to-Play Panel process.

 

[Mainstreet]

Before the new rule change, I believe agents were withholding medical information from certain teams. The Kings might have still had access to Haliburton's medical information.

With the new rule change, this is how the article reads in regard to medical information being shared. See below:

The Kings drafted #12 so as I understand it, they would have been able to get Haliburton's medical information under the new rules. He was slotted to go later than #1.

Seems odd considering anyone could theoretically make a trade, or if a player drops outside that range the other orgs wouldn't know if it was medically related.

I suspect teams and agents share medical information in these situations. Sometimes when a player drops in the draft, it's because of medical issues.

Then the team trading out of that pick would need to give up the medical report, similar to now when they trade one of their players.

I don't see the issue and am genuinely surprised others are finding issues. This is also a breakdown of a 91 page document sent to teams. I'm sure that info is covered but doesn't need to be included in the article because most fans aren't looking to poke holes in the new process.

Forgive me if I am wrong, but I thought Halliburton was projected in the top ten?

EDIT: I misread the ranges. Sorry!

He was, see Mainstreet's post above. Players projected 2-6 are shared with the top 15 picks, players 7-10 are shared with teams with a top 25 pick.


Edit - All good. Just trying to help, not trying to be a jerk.

I'm glad the Bradley Beal trade went more smoothly.

Beal had an official no trade clause while Lillard, Durant, AD and Harden had unofficial no trade clauses. Superstars determine where they go regardless of clauses these days.

Freaking lame.

Would be cool to see more, but it makes sense that they're shutting him down. He has been getting banged up and he isn't going to have a better outing than his last one either.

 

[CardsSunsDbacks]

Beal had an official no trade clause while Lillard, Durant, AD and Harden had unofficial no trade clauses. Superstars determine where they go regardless of clauses these days.

Yet the deal would be far more likely to be happening immediately if Lillard had an actual no trade clause.

I know but the Wizards didn't have to cooperate.
