SAC | POR | MIL 

Post#1 » by tester551 » Tue May 27, 2025 10:11 pm

Trying to think through an option to fill everyone's needs here:

Kings: DDR => Kuzma + Murray

Blazers: Grant + Murray => DDR + Connaughton

Bucks: Kuzma + Connaughton => Grant


Kings struggled with DDR, who is apparently on the trade block. Kings take Kuzma for a better positional player and Murray to energize the twins.

Blazers get off Grant's contract.

Bucks get a player who would likely fit better next to Gainnis.

Bucks would cut out Portland here. DD is better than Grant on a better contract. I don't love that for them, but were they presented with their choice you gotta take DD there.

Can't stand Kuzma. It would be an easy no from me. Demar is flawed but can still score and close. Kuzma just sucks.

100%

3rd year player option on grant's contract is brutal

probably would prefer demar over grant even without that last year

I've heard some kings fan say they're open to it

I agree that you shouldn't be

kuzma is replacement-level at best
