Lauri Markkanen

IMO Chriss has at least as much potential as Porzingis.

Chriss has good potential but as much as KP? For one thing Porzingis is delivering on his potential 'right now' and still has considerable upside yet to go. Plus KP is taller which always help.

Ideally though I'd like to keep Chriss and add more to the deal in others areas. I'd rather give Bender plus extras but if it came down to it I'd give up Chris's for KP.

Good news. I hope Markkenan got a good night kiss and the Knicks draft him.

I thought this was the replacement for Porzingis.

If the Suns getting Porzingis would stop them from trying to draft the next Porzingis i'm all for it.

Good point! Then we can stay out of the Eurozone for awhile.

FYI claim on ESPN is Lauri is moving up boards and may go top 6. Bilas has him 6th and Dakich said he had 2 NBA player personnel people tell him Markkanen is the guy who will go earlier than fans expect. Said some of the reservations on Lauri's game are true but some of them were due to the offense he played in, no real PG

I've thought he would go sixth from the getgo. Maybe seventh.

Went 7th to Minnesota

He's going to Chicago, they traded the #16 and Butler for #7, Lavine, and Kris Dunn.
