Bulls/Boston/Raptors

[Astaluego]

BULLS
In:9/KP/Hauser
Out: Vucevic/12/45/Blazers FRP

Bulls consolidate assets to move up through Maluach
They also get two players that I think fit them very well.

Giddey/White/Hauser/Buzelis/KP
Lonzo/Ayo/Huerter/P.Williams/9
Carter/Terry/Philips/Collins..


BOSTON
In: Vucevic/JSmith/45
Out:KP/Hauser/28

Boston downgrades its FRP to save money and also get more consistent players who usually show up to play.

RAPTORS
In:12/28/Blazers FRP
Out:9

The Raptors trade down in the draft in exchange for more assets

(I don't love any of their top-10 prospects)

I don't think this makes sense for BOS. Vucevic is obviously cheaper and more reliable than Porzingis, but he's also an empty stats player compared to a borderline all star like Porzingis is when he does play. BOS is better off moving Porzingis for total nothings on the court from a tea that's fine paying a very small price to upgrade their ceiling as opposed to something like this. The Hauser/JSmith swap does nothing for BOS. Can easily dump Hauser into a TPE/MLE somewhere for multi year savings rather than saving practically nothing the next two years and getting worse.

i suspect Masai will prefer to just pick Malauch himself given the african connection and the team's need for C depth, but value is fair
