Posted: Mon Jul 26, 2021 5:34 am
Atlanta trades Reddish and #20 for #10 and #17.
Atlanta trades Reddish for a lottery pick to reset rookie scale allowing them more opportunity to sign their players. They also get a sweetener of moving up 3 spots with their own pick.
Golden State trades #7, #14, and salary filler (Mulder, Paschall, Smailagic) for Reddish, Bane, #20 and 2024 1st*
GS adds depth. They get the upside of two young players on rookie deals, but they ease the concerns of their vets who do not want to rely on rookies. They also get back a 2024 1st which gives them flexibility in future trades.
Memphis trades Bane, Jones, #17 and GS 2024 1st* for Bledsoe and #7.
Mem consolidates some assets for a mid lottery pick likely targeting one of Bouknight, Moody, Kuminga.
New Orleans trades Bledsoe and #10 for Jones, #14 and GS filler(all expiring or non guaranteed for 2022.)
NO saves $5M this year and all of Bledsoe's 2022 salary. They get to stay in the lottery.
*Mem converts the 2024 GS 1st they currently own to a right to swap picks in 2024, keeping the top 4 protection.
