I would have thought Detroit would accept that in a heartbeat.
Yeah SGA will need to get paid soon but nobody in the NBA gets paid under market for as many years as they do in MLB. You only hope Cade turns into a player of SGA's caliber.
Of the last 8 1st overall picks, SGA is clearly better than 3 of them (Anthoy Bennett, Wiggins, Fultz), probably better than Deandre Ayton, debatably better than Ben Simmons, probably worse than KAT and definitely worse than Zion Williamson. Anthony Edwards could develop but SGA I think has the better career.
SGA and pick #6 seems very solid for the #1 pick.
