Most likely offseason outcome

[DuckIII]

Pretty early to be calling it an offseason.

1. I’d be very surprised if Ayo is not dealt.

2. I think there’s a better than 50/50 chance Pat is dealt. Possibly with Ayo. Or that Huerter is dealt (again, possibly with Ayo).

3. There’s still an outside possibility we deal Vuc.

And none of these are the types of deals that have to happen in early July. Just as easily could happen during camp. I’d be surprised if there was nothing left other than Giddey.

This is a very optimistic view from you Duck.

However, I don't share that optimism.

I think with the teams roster constraints (lack of available roster spots) that once Giddey is resigned AK will go on summer vacation. He's already got his 2-way contracts sorted, so no need for him to check out summer league.

I don't think Ayo is dealt, he was one of AKs actually good draft picks, I just don't see AK trading him.

Pat's staying with the team probably until that contract is done, who would want him in all honesty? The Cavs had trouble unloading Okoro on a much better deal until AK came along.

Vucevic is becoming harder and harder to deal as the days go by as most teams already have 3 centers or lack the realistic contracts to match his salary and then there's the lack of roster spots I mentioned, the Bulls would likely have to do a 2 for 1 deal to match his salary.

Obviously it is of course possible, but I personally don't think it's as likely as you mentioned.

I'll be surprised if anything more than Giddey resigned at 30m per gets done before training camp.

I voted for the top option.

AK is done imo. We're going to resign Giddy at some point and his summer will be done.

Coby/ Ayo/ Vuc will be bulls until their deals expires and we'll lose 2 out of the 3 for nothing because AK just is horrible at his job.

Vs

Trading them and get draft capital but as history has shown us AK doesn't value picks, so he wants that cap space for some mystery player/free agent and that will be his justification for letting 2 out of the 3 walk and or not making any deals to impact his 2026 master plan. Whatever that may be. Sorry to sound negative, but I have low expectations for AK.

It’s not optimism. I don’t want to do 2 of those 3 things.

I certainly don't mind if we don't trade Ayo. I can't imagine he's gonna return an asset with more upside...feels like a sell low. That said, it's otherwise likely we'll lose him for nothing after next season, but if we decide to move on from Coby, I think the door would be open from both sides for him to stay (likely on a cheap deal because he won't get more than 10 mpg next season).
