Keegan is shorter than Jaden and averaged 1 more rebound per game. And a point less. But yeah we should give up all our youth and glue guys.
Wolves fan commiserate here!

He barely played this year for a garbage Kings team, he's also 225 poundsBeenLurkin wrote: ↑Fri Jul 24, 2026 7:18 pm Keegan is shorter than Jaden and averaged 1 more rebound per game. And a point less. But yeah we should give up all our youth and glue guys.
Jaden's age wasn't a factor in the equation
FWIW a couple years ago the NBA said you had to put down the actual weight and height for players. Idk if they have stuck with that but since then it has seemed a little more accurate than it did for the like 30 years before that.BeenLurkin wrote: ↑Fri Jul 24, 2026 8:22 pm And Jaden was listed at 200lbs as a freshman at Washington….so we can all stop listing heights and weights because they a lie. It’s all money and negotiation tactics.
Lol well that's certainly true, but you brought it up first.BeenLurkin wrote: ↑Fri Jul 24, 2026 8:22 pm And Jaden was listed at 200lbs as a freshman at Washington….so we can all stop listing heights and weights because they a lie. It’s all money and negotiation tactics.
I think that's a lot to give up for someone making more money than PJ Washington and idk if he is actually any better. I'm willing to listen though. Lets say it was even just for Donte and Green like you said you said that would make the roster building pretty tricky.AussieWolf3 wrote: ↑Fri Jul 24, 2026 7:13 pm He's expensive, but that likely deprecates his value which may allow him to be gettable: Keegan Murray.
It would be a coup to trade green, DDV and Shannon for him. The risk is the long contract and maybe he doesn't get back on track. He'd make the roster very very good, one of the best in the league, but also pretty inflexible--- even more so than it is now.
I would rather have Jaden play PF which he is big enough to do and keep TJ and DDV.AussieWolf3 wrote: ↑Fri Jul 24, 2026 8:25 pmLol well that's certainly true, but you brought it up first.BeenLurkin wrote: ↑Fri Jul 24, 2026 8:22 pm And Jaden was listed at 200lbs as a freshman at Washington….so we can all stop listing heights and weights because they a lie.

I like what Keegan would give this team because, one he's still young, two he would give the starting 5 a little more bulk, three he can guard the perimeter, and four him and Jaden would basically be interchangeable which I like a lot
Fwiw I'm not really that keen to trade for a PF and I think the matter has pretty much become a meme, but there are risk if they go into the season without an established PF
I think that's underrating Murrary, but I legit don't have any problem with that. I am worried TJ shits the bed again nor isn't really a forward. If DDV is really apart of the future vision for the team than I'm with that too. I just like what Murray gives the team, it's less projection based.BeenLurkin wrote: ↑Fri Jul 24, 2026 8:29 pmI would rather have Jaden play PF which he is big enough to do and keep TJ and DDV.AussieWolf3 wrote: ↑Fri Jul 24, 2026 8:25 pmLol well that's certainly true, but you brought it up first.BeenLurkin wrote: ↑Fri Jul 24, 2026 8:22 pm And Jaden was listed at 200lbs as a freshman at Washington….so we can all stop listing heights and weights because they a lie.
