You must be an Ayo fan to want this… that’s a truly ridiculous overpay for Ingram. I wouldn’t trade Coby for him straight up.

Or maybe you just don’t like Giddey and are tired of Pat. I can see that. But you definitely don’t add a potentially good first.

I like:

Ingram to DET
JVal and THJ to NO
Fontecchio to WAS along with a couple of seconds from DET.

DET gets help now. Gives them a better chance to sign him (easier to sign a guy when he has seen your team and system) or do a sign and trade to bring in assets.
WAS gets a couple of seconds to eat Font 2 year deal - but shipped JVal's three year deal and saves $2 mil now.
NO gets a center (assuming they want him back if not can take Fontecchio and seconds) and an expiring - plus get a 10 mil TE so savings now.
- There is not first involved in this deal - but the DET cap space makes up for that in my opinion.

I think the return for BI is going to be a little lite.

I assume a team wouldn’t trade for him if they didn’t have an extension already agreed upon.

He will get traded, but I’d expect this to go down to the last day of the deadline.

RJ for Ingram + Toronto has the right to swap firsts with NOP?

Makes too much sense for Charlotte. They also showed interest last year so maybe they can get something done. Charlotte isn't getting star FAs this is probably the best talent they can actually acquire and he's from NC.

Sleeper team could be a team like the Lakers who's looking to make a splash.

I higher doubt RJ has anything above neutral value, NO is the one asking for value here. Maybe Tor doesn't pay it but NOP won't be sending it.

I figure White's value has dropped A LOT since June (when I was pushing us to trade him)
PWill is negative value
Giddy is very blah

Maybe we keep the pick, but I might do it. Chi probably won't rebuild, so maybe roll the dice, improve our defense and see what happens?
I will really dislike Giddy with a big contract

Ingram to Heat
Butler to Suns
Beal + 3 picks (2 from Suns, 1 from Heat) to Pel

add fillers to make $ work

Heat gets their win now player in short contract
Bulter gets his wish to the Suns
Pel gets picks for a player they are going to lose anyway, and a dead weight
