Cleveland gets: Rui Hachimura
Los Angeles gets: Isaac Okoro S&T & 2025 2nd round pick via Cavs
Why?
Cleveland gets their starting SF.
Los Angeles gets a much-needed defender and a 2nd round pick.

Rui is more of a 3/4 than a pure 3 and CLE is already a bit big
Why not just keep Okoro if hes good enough for us?
If we go for Okoro we also should have a trade to move Vando I think
Okoro is a better shooter than Vando I know that, but does he cut well off ball?

Lakers are more than $7.5m over 1st apron..
So it's not possible to meet salary match rules and for Lakers to drop below the 1st apron to accept an SnT.

Let's say hypothetically that Okoro takes $9.5m in year 1 of the sign and trade to get the Lakers under. Then the Cavs need to dump Niang on Utah to make the salary work.

Ya Cavs have to send out Niang to LA and get someone like Wood back to make salaries remotely come close

Would rather give up LaVert or Strus for Hachimura and ?
