I know Ja had surgery and thus no workouts but does anyone know if we met w him privately?

While top prospect Ja Morant remains the favorite to be selected No. 2 overall by the Grizzlies, he’s apparently taking no chances, as Jordan Schultz of ESPN reports that the 19-year-old Murray State product will meet with the Knicks in New York City on Thursday.

Morant, who recently underwent a preventative surgical procedure on his right knee, also met with the Grizzlies over the weekend. His two reported meetings fit with his projected draft position, as virtually nobody believes Morant will last past the Knicks’ pick at No. 3.

One of the reasons that Morant could feel that Memphis is not a sure thing may be a recent rumor that the Grizzlies are looking harder at other options with the No. 2 pick, primarily sparked by the team’s unsuccessful attempt(s) in trying to get RJ Barrett to come to Memphis for a private workout.

I hope the knicks make a trade to get rid of frank, that the only reason to watch.

But with this conservative FO, they normally just sit on their hands scared to death to take risk

I have been very critical of FO but couldn’t disagree more.
Last year they took plenty of risk in selecting KK over players like bridges

I also think they should hold onto Frank. Let him defend the point and he has to earn his minutes
I don’t expect electricity from frank but think he is fully capable of hitting shots and keeping the other D honest

CS needs to calibrate expectations of him. He can contribute to winning basketball

Hmmm, we're not in line for any trades (unless we move Frank), but teams that are likely:

-Pelicans (seem to want to move down, while Twolves and Bulls want to move up for Garland)
-Hawks (seem to want to move two of their picks to move up- people say for cutler, but Hawks are the only team DeAndre Hunter has worked out or interviewed for and would fit perfectly onto their team)
-OKC seem to want to give up their pick for cap relief
-Boston don't want to take 3 rookies so may move up

Basic due diligence, but could also mean we might be active dealing for another first or might be actually considering offers to trade down.

I'm wondering if the Knicks are quietly shopping Smith jr, Frank and maybe the pick from Dallas to perhaps the Suns and are looking to grab Garland or White?

I suspect we're just covering our bases in the unlikely event the Pelicans make us a bedazzling offer. Just don't see it happening! Don't get why we've left these so late though.
