We’ve all got the one that got away. NBA teams have their ones that got away, too.
Perhaps you met them at the wrong time. The connection was there, but the moment wasn’t. You need both.
Perhaps they almost acquired a player, and opted against it. To this day, some teams wish they’d made a trade that they passed on.
For example, the Los Angeles Lakers almost acquired Buddy Hield. They didn’t.
To this day, it feels like they could use the elite movement shooter.
Is it too late for them to go out and get him?
