In this regard, would we want someone like Coby White? Chicago needs a PF desperately given that Pat Williams is injured all season.
If we think Coby White could be an answer as a third guard, maybe Coby White + D Jones Jr + Portland's 2022 1st (Top 14 protected) for Kuzma + Holiday?
Another option is to try something like Bertans+Todd for Coby White + D Jones Jr. Though here Chicago will likely say no...
Yeah, Chicago is 12-5 without a PF. Gotta figure there's an opportunity for the Wiz there. Agreed Chi would likely much prefer Kuzma over Bertans.
Another dream trade would be Bertans+Holiday for Derrick White of SAS...Derrick White has underperformed this season (29% in 3 pt shooting) and his contract runs identical to Bertans. However, realistically, we'll have to add more and I'm not sure what else we can offer. Maybe Todd+Neto (instead of Holiday) if SAS thinks Todd is worth the investment...
