What about swapping Gabe and Rui for CJ McCollum? Go all in offensively.

G - Marcus, CJ, Bronny
G - Austin and Nick Smith
F - Luka, Jake, Dalton
F - LeBron, Vando
C - Ayton, Hayes, Maxi
G - James | Rondo
G - Bradley | Caruso
F - Green | Caldwell-Pope
F - Davis | Kuzma | Morris
C - McGee | Howard

All day, everyday!.. .

I wonder if Kyrie could be available for just expiring without pics? .... because I would package McCollum and Maxi cleaver for Kyrie

Vincent (exp), Kleber (exp), and Knecht
for
Monk, Carter, and Clifford

Good for Lakers because they get guard scoring off the bench and speed and athleticism in the backcourt.

Bad for Lakers because Monk is under contract for three more years at 20m per.

Good for Sac because they get immediate cap relief by acquiring expirings, and they get to take a flyer on an athletic shooter who can conceivably replace Monk's firepower.

Bad for Sac because they lose Clifford early without seeing what he can become.

PG - Doncic - Monk - James
SG - Smart - Carter - Clifford
C --- Ayton - Hayes - Koloko
PF - James - Hachimura - Thiero
SF - Reaves - LaRavia - Vanderbilt

Nope. If the objective is to be offensive then just stick with Rui. Rui has a high shooting percentage, can shoot threes and can bang it inside. He is also bigger than CJ which is what we also need (size) and Rui is always ready to shoot. And Gabe can also have good games shooting threes so I'd rather go with these two than CJ.

Rui <<<<<<McCollum ... it's not even close

Rui if given the ball in every possession can't score 50.

Rui gets manhandle by every power Forward... so what do you mean bang?
