Tate will be traded. KJ needs to be kept as insurance for Whitmore. His work ethic was a reason he slipped.
Ime comes from the Pops coaching tree. Pops is notorious for being very conservative with exposing Ronnie’s to playing time
KJ and 4 of our seconds (which I would value as a late FRP) for Isaiah Hartenstein. We get a really good backup center who shouldn't step on any of Senguns minutes (and who shouldnt have been traded away from the team in the first place). Knicks get a super athletic wing who can fill in for Obi Toppin if they decide to move him (and a bunch of their huge draft capital) in a trade.
Hartenstein would be perfect, but we will have to pay more. We’re not the only team that has recognized his worth.
