He is not a good FT shooter. But, we want to keep him.

1st 2024 (via BOS for Tillman&Konchar)

Memphis would then resign Claxton at 25m/y which is the amount of the salaries of Adams and Clarke, would then need to be traded.

Brooklyn would get a good, though not perfect, return for its UFA.


If Clax is going to cost 25M... then no team should WANT to beat that.
FWIW offering the Suns '24 (that Mem has) plus Tillman (just forget Boston) and using Dipo to match salary (dipo for claxton, Tillman for air) should get it done and the Nets can milk some other team (knicks will pay a '24 FRP for him for example) if they want to keep it rolling.
