Fair point - we should get a top 3 pick for Will Phillips. Why should we trade him for less than we drafted him?
End of the day Perkins has played 1 good game in 2024. No team is giving a top 10 pick for him.
He is consistently inconsistent.
Archie Perkins is delivering far more than Will Phillips, even if inconsistently.
To your point though I wouldn't begrudge North of asking a high price for a young top draft pick. Why give away young talent for nothing.
