Lakers offer of: 2020 LAL 2nd round oick FOR Rights to Billy Preston (59th pick) Accepted by the Spurs. Mark Price and I had agreed on this trade during the early stages of the 2nd round of the draft contingent on the player he wanted (Preston) being at pick #59 and the big FA decisions he was in on. With Giannis and LeBron decisions announced, we can officially post this deal. On my end this gets me a pick down the road when I have no 2nd rounder next year and no 1st rounder in 2021, and also helps me ensure the rookies I recently drafted higher up log big minutes next season.

I accept.
I like Billy Preston's potential and would have taken him at the end of the second round if I had a late second to use. He has high upside and I believe that upside is worth a second round pick two years from now. I understand that there is a huge chance Preston is a bust, but so are many second round picks. I like his upside and I'm hopeful for the best.

I'll accept. End of the day this is one 2nd for another 2nd. Any theoretical value loss for it being a future 2nd is mostly negated by this being the 2nd-to-last pick in this year's draft.
Accept.
