AtLa-Bamba

[NYG]

Atlanta Hawks get:
Alex Len
2020 Brooklyn Nets First Round Draft Pick (protected for selections 1-14 in 2020, 1-14 in 2021 and 1-14 in 2022; if Brooklyn has not conveyed a 1st round pick to Atlanta by 2022, then Brooklyn will instead convey its 2022 2nd round pick and 2024 2nd round pick)
2022 Oklahoma City First Round Draft Pick (protected for selections 1-14; if this pick falls within its protected range and is therefore not conveyed, then Oklahoma City will instead convey its 2024 2nd round pick and 2025 2nd round pick)

Orlando Magic get:
Mo Bamba

The Magic add a veteran back-up that fits nicely and could easily match Bamba's 2019-20 regular season stats for this Magic team plus a first that is likely to convey this year and another that most likely gives them two second round picks.

The Hawks swing for the fences here on Bamba, but may find a near perfect fit if he hits his ceiling.

I like Reddish for Bamba better. Those picks could be nothing.

Alex Len and most likely two 2nd round picks to take a flyer on Bamba. Definitely, that's a no brainer.

Obviously Magic say no.

Birch was a serviceable enough backup last year after Bamba got hurt that I don't think we'd value Len much at all in a Bamba trade and I don't think the picks on their own would be good enough to give up on him. If we decided to trade Bamba I think it would be more likely that it would be part of a package to upgrade one of our guard slots, which one depending on how good Fultz looks going forward.

Yeah that’s terrible for Orlando.

This is why I like Reddish for Bamba because long term SG is a need for sure and it balances things

I get the idea conceptually, but I’m extraordinarily low on Reddish as a prospect so I personally wouldn’t want the Magic to do that.
