An attempt to move around some of the RFAs and get them to different situations, while still having the trades be valid and allowing other rumored moves.
Update: Never mind, PHI would be over the first apron hard cap. FYI, don't use Fanspo's trade machine in regards to aprons, because it's missing the recent draft picks and their salary slots.

GSW

• Out: Kuminga (3/63).
• In: Grimes (3/50), 2027 2nd (Best of PHX/GSW), 2028 2nd (GSW).
• Rationale: Gets decent value for Kuminga, bringing in Grimes to compete with Podz in the starting unit, and having two of their 2nd rounders returned. This does make them a bit guard heavy (Curry, Podz, Grimes, Moody, Hield), which means they may not want to sign Melton afterwards.

PHI

• Out: Grimes (3/50), Drummond, 2027 2nd (Best of PHX/GSW), 2 2028 2nds (PHI and GSW).
• In: Kuminga (3/63).
• Rationale: Balances out their young core by obtaining them a young PF with a lot of potential, while keeping them under the tax line. I didn't feel the difference between Grimes and Kuminga warranted a first round pick... but that is obviously one of the sticking points. If the difference is a first, probably the 2028 LAC first is the candidate.

BRK

• Out: Nothing.
• In: Drummond, 2028 2nd (PHI).
• Rationale: Gets them closer to the salary floor for a 2nd round pick with upside.

Notes

• Kuminga's Contract: $20, $21, $22.
• Grimes's Contract: $16, $16.67, $17.33.
• Obviously, both players would need to agree to these contracts.

Not the worst Kuminga trade I’ve seen, but outside of a 30 game stretch where Philly was aggressively tanking Grimes has looked like nothing more than an average bench wing. I’d bet that deal turns into a bad contract pretty quickly

Never mind, it doesn't work as PHI would be over the first apron. Mods, feel free to lock or delete.
