This feels like an easy win/win though. Toronto should give their young guards the minutes.. Miami needs any form of point guard.

Lol! He was never worth that. Miami pretty much already have Schroeder in Rozier, so his inclusion doesn't really being us anything we didn't already have. Mitchell, on the other hand, is a fantastic Dru Smith replacement.

Yes I know. Never was. Sorry didn’t Green font there.

But Dennis has to be worth more than what he was used as?

Like Orlando wouldn’t have been happy as a bridge here and taken the small talent upgrade and saved the other teams more money, if not threw in a second?? Detroit? Houston? OKC? Sacramento?…

Just doesn’t seem to make sense to me.

Yeah, I feel like we were owed value from Utah.

Hoping that there's still some team willing to exchange salaries that don't go beyond next season + draft assets for him... within the next 3.5 hours.
