I wouldn't have a clue to the amount of points picked after him, a rough
guess would be 9 or 10.

The reason why they want to get rid of him is that he is unable to make
his own shot, or so it said in the article. Everyone knows that the kid
will take 2 to 3 seasons, so just keep him, let the kid develop and just
dont make any more trade rumours up about him.. if he is to get traded,
then so be it.
