Money matches, upgrade PG position and add shooting.
Expiring contacts.
Spend the BPA w/ #11, draft and stash w/15
White is an upgrade in our PG rotation
Chief and Gay can give what AG has
Okeke is going to play SF
Gay & Evan come off the books after the season.

Derrick White is great. No matter what, I'm hoping to move Evan in a separate or bigger deal. Here's an alternative to move up and change a bit...
ORL sends AG and #15
NYK send Bobby Portis, DSJ, and #8
for NY...AG does have some star power and would welcome the challenge and bright lights (even though he's probably not really up to it) and 15 is still a useful pick in this draft. DSJ is upside down at this point and a sore reminder of losing KP.
for ORL...Portis has a one year option, shoots 3's effectively at PF and can hold it down for a year (while Isaac is out) and, possibly, earn a role for the future. He's a physical and versatile young vet who, hopefully, is not a head case and a locker room problem (one bad incident?). I don't really know, but maybe he's just a fierce competitor who couldn't stand a sloth teammate who's out of the NBA now despite obvious NBA talent? DSJ is still interesting and potentially exciting behind and, maybe, next to Fultz...moving up to #8 is the real key, but I'm not sure for whom. I (rationalize) interest in DSJ by saying he's very similar to Fultz and, therefore, we would be committed to a consistent, upbeat offense without DJ pounding the air out of the ball. Our PG's would be more interchangeable and we'd be embracing the pace and ball movement and penetration that was apparent in our handful of exceptional wins this season. Fournier is the other odd man out of this system picture, IMO...thanks to both guys, great players, best wishes.

absolutely not. Derozan is 31 and cant shoot 3's. not a fit for the team or modern offense

Same as Fultz, atleast DeRozan can score and get to ft line.
