Lopez to Lakers, Brown to Bucks, Vanderbilt to Pistons
Posted: Mon Nov 11, 2024 2:13 am
Ill offer this idea for:
-Lakers to get another sought after big in Lopez
-Bucks add more versatility while getting smaller
-Pistons add more frontcourt depth
-Raptors cash out on Brown by getting immediate salary flexibility and picks
To Los Angeles (Trade Vincent, Vanderbilt, Lewis, 2 2nds)
-Brook Lopez (1 year, $23 million)
To Milwaukee (Trade Lopez)
-Bruce Brown (1 year, $23 million)
To Detroit (Trade Moore Jr.)
-Jared Vanderbilt (4 years, $48 million)
-Jamal Shead (1 year, $1.8 million)
To Toronto (Trade Brown & Shead, waive Temple)
-Gabe Vincent (2 years, $22.5 million)
-Wendel Moore Jr. (1 year, $2.5 million)
-Maxwell Lewis (1 year, $1.9 million)
-2025 Lakers 2nd rund pick
-2027 Lakers 2nd round pick
Why?
-The Lakers add more depth in frontcourt as AD could play the 4 and LeBron the 3. Lakers can add VM players to add depth (Bertans and Bullock?)
Russell/Hood-Schifino/James
Reaves/Christie/FA?
James/Knecht/Reddish
Davis/Hachimura/FA?
Lopez/Hayes/Wood
-Milwaukee moves to add Portis to start at the 5 and Brown to start at the 2. Bucks can add a VM 5 for more depth (Biyombo or Muscala or McGee)
Lillard/Wright/Johnson
Brown/Trent/Beauchamp/Green
Middleton/Connaughton/Linvginton/Smith
Giannis/Prince/
Portis/FA?
-Detroit leverages cap space to swap out Moore Jr. for Vanderbilt and Shead as Pistons add more frontcourt depth
Cunningham/Sasser/Shead
Ivey/Hardaway/Beasley
Thompson/Holland/Fontecchio
Harris/Vanderbilt/Klintman
Duren/Stewart/Reed
-Raptors cash out of Brown as they look to add 2nds to further rebuild.
Quickley/Mitchell/Vincent
Dick/Walter/Moore Jr.
Barrett/Agbaji/Maxwell
Barnes/Boucher/Mogbo
Poeltl/Olynyk/Fernando
