If we want Zinger for the #3 packaged with other assets (KO S&T,Rozier,Crowder, etc.), we are going to have to eat Melo's contract.
That puts us in the conversation.
That means that we forego Hayward and any other big FAs out there.
I'd do it. Also, get O'Quinn or Hernangomez in the deal.
Zinger will be 22 in August. He, Jaylen, Smart, Rozier, BK '18, LAL/Sac pick, Zizic is a strong future core.
Compete now and later.
