IF GS was interested in being dumb and making a Huerter/Wiggins swap, I'd allow them to happily keep their 1st and cut the rest of the teams out. Can't imagine they are ran that poorly though.

I mean, this is the same FO that decided in 2020 to start planning for life after a then-31-year-old Steph and try to build a team around James Wiseman...

Wow, GS wouldn't never do a trade this bad. Well explained by others already, but Wiggins isn't a negative asset.

-Pistons to leverage cap flexibility to add a starting wing and get a 1st
-Kings look to add a defensive/versatile piece on perimeter in Brown
-Warriors look to get out of tax apron given theyre under .500 half way through season
-Raptors leverage cap flexibility to get back 2nds for Brown

To Detroit (Trade THJ, Fontecchio, 2nd)
-Andrew Wiggins (2 years, $54.5 million plus $30 million player option)
-2031 Golden State 1st round pick (1-7 protected or 2031 2nd)

To Sacrameto (Trade Hurter, 2nds)
-Bruce Brown (1 year, $23 million)

To Golden State (Trade Wiggins, 1st)
-Kevin Huerter (2 years, $34.2 million)
-2028 Kings 2nd round pick
-2031 Pistons 2nd round pick

To Toronto (Trade Brown, waive Temple)
-Tim Hardaway Jr. (1 year, $16.2 million)
-Simone Fontecchio (2 years, $16 million)
-2026 Kings 2nd round pick


Why?
-The Pistons add a wing still in his prime for duration of his contract who can start as given the money they take on, the get back a distant 1st
-The Kings get a more defensive minded permieter piece to compliment Monk at the 2 as the Kings get off-season cap flexiblity at expense of 2 2nds
-The Warriors get out of tax short term and get out of the $30 million player option in 2027 off-season in swapping WIggins/protected 1st for Hueter and 2nds
-The Raptors go 2 for one in swapping out Brown for THJ and adding SF as the Raps get back a 2nd given the Fontecchioo cap hut for next season. They could further flip THJ at TD for another 2nd.


IIRC you are a Pistons fan.
If you want Wiggins, that's great. No need to bring all this other noise.
Wiggins > Hardaway so
Wiggins to DET for Hardaway + FRP(contingent 2027)
Maybe the Warriors use that EC and draft asset to then move towards Butler or someone else ie Cam Johnson.

If you pull DET out, and change Wiggins to GP and SloMo, I think they still can take Huerter which would be a great fit.

So Warriors get to significantly downgrade a player, and pay handsomely for the privelige?

I don’t get this idea that the Kings have ANY need for another guard.

Especially one that is expensive and has dropped off a ton in his level of play.

Brown isn’t half the player Keon Ellis has developed into. He wouldn’t play in front of Keon either.

We need size in the FRONT COURT.

PASS.

the op is not though, just has really odd valuations of players. Usually the Pistons get robbed in a lot of their trades. Or trade for players that don’t make sense for Detroit.
