Mudiay is an elite athlete with elite play-making ability. Winslow is climbing because the trend in the league right now is highly versatile wing defenders who can shoot a little and guard multiple positions i.e. D Carroll, Jimmy Butler, Draymond Green. Winslow projects as a great prospect for the modern NBA.

i like his intangibles over mudiay and cauley stein, for mr winslow

focused, detailed oriented player, highly competitive, outstanding work ethic, basically non shooter before duke.

high motor, very physically and mentally tough. doesnt get rattled. winner. ncaa champion. undefeated in team usa play 22 and 0

no, why do people think they are trading cousins, it would have to be a heist for kings for them to trade cousins

Maybe the hundreds of articles that has speculated it and his coach saying at the end of the season no one is untradable..The fact that Cousins shut down early upset of the prospects of his team, speculation he could have played if he wanted to..etc...Working out Stein when you already have a big man and you have bigger needs...

I am really hoping for a Cousins/Rondo pairing. I think it would be fun to watch Karl coach that team.

Would love to be a fly in the wall of a Rondo-Cousins-Karl meet and greet..

Cousins and Stein side by side would be a fantastic big man combo.

The team that drafts Stein will be very very happy.

I think it's insurance in case Cousins get unbearable..

Cousins wants Kings to draft WCS.. would be a nice duo

Stein would be very good for the kings next to cousins. That Front court pair would be similar to the situation he was in at UK.
CrushAlot @ 6/11/2015 11:24 PM
This is really frustrating. The difference is the guys not pulling their weight aren't wearing orange and blue anymore.

Two UK bigs...maybe the Kings have to change their uniform color from purple to KU blue.

The Lakers made a promise? Or he's trying to slip to the Knicks?

Might be due to Mudiay's latest video. Russell will never match that (Lebron James type) athleticism.....It's probably better for him to not workout anymore. He will go in the top 4 regardless. Anything more can only hurt him!

Anyone actually ever see the French kid, Jaiteh, mentioned here?


The New York Knicks are in active discussions offering cash considerations to acquire a draft pick in the late first-round to early second-round range, sources told RealGM.
The Knicks have worked out several players, including France’s Mam Jaiteh, selling the potential that the team will push hard to acquire a pick in their range.

Jaiteh, a 6-foot-11 big man, has intrigued the Knicks and is a rising prospect whose workout circuit includes 12 visits in 19 days. He isn’t expected to fall past the mid-second round, and has accelerated within teams’ draft rankings — including the Memphis Grizzlies and Portland Trail Blazers.

New York, sources said, will soon also work out forward Richaun Holmes out of Bowling Green. Holmes used the Portsmouth Invitational to ascend onto draft boards and into first-round predraft workouts.

Payne supposedly cancelled his Knicks workout - maybe trading back is no longer in the Knicks plans?

A shame, I like him. Does seem odd.
