Cavs get: Lauri Markkanen, Brandon Ingram and Collin Murray-Boyles
Jazz get: Jarrett Allen, Max Strus and Dennis Schroder
Raptors get: Evan Mobley

Why?
Cavs add better fitting pieces next to Mitchell and add depth.
Jazz get their Center, allowing them to move JJJ to PF.
Raptors get the best player in the deal without giving up Scottie Barnes.

29 Apr 2026 14:37:59
I love this for Toronto, but why would the Cavs do this?

29 Apr 2026 20:27:56
No sense for the Cavs. If you are trading Mobley, you should target a superstar like Giannis.

Hornets

SG: Miller
PG: Ball

08 Mar 2026 05:57:15
Miller or Knueppel will be demanded here by the Bucks.

08 Mar 2026 15:41:23
They may demand Kon or Miller, but that doesn't mean they'll get it. The package in OP is more than enough to get Giannis.

09 Mar 2026 07:37:58
6 first round picks seems a good offer for Giannis.
They can ask for Miller or Knuepel, but they risk losing Giannis for less.

04 Feb 2026 23:17:48

Spurs-Minny-Suns

Spurs:Edwards+Beringer
Suns: 1rnd pick 26 spurs/ atl and 1rnd pick 29 Spurs/ boston
Minny:Castle+Harper+Vassell+ return swap 26+ return 1rnd pick 27 minny/ utah/ Cle+return 1rnd pick Minny/ dal+1rnd pick Spurs 32

Spurs have an amazing starting five:

Minny start a rebuilt, trade Gobert and Randle for more picks
C:Gobert/ Reid
PF:Randle/ McDaniels

Phoenix swaps 1 pick into 2.

05 Jan 2026 21:20:47
As good as Edwards is, the Spurs wont give all of that for him. The Spurs depth and talent is amazing on its own. If they are to get Edwards they will keep Castle or Harper.

16 Dec 2025 21:42:55
Jazz aren’t trying to build around Sabonis.

10 Dec 2025 11:40:35
Hot take on where these players will go/move

Giannis - stays in Milwaukee
AD - stays in Dallas
Trae - traded to Minnesota
Morant - traded to Miami
Lamelo - traded to Clippers
Lavine - traded to Dallas
Sabonis - traded to Utah
Derozan - traded to Clippers
Kuminga - traded to Kings
Embiid - traded to Portland

10 Dec 2025 14:56:49
Injury prone center to Portland. He’d die. Or have his leg amputated.

I’d watch VJ as compensation for taking Embiid’s contract. I think it’s that bad.

08 Dec 2025 09:14:02
Atl: Giannis+ Thanasis
Bucks:T Young+ Risacher+ 1rnd pick Spurs (swap Cleveland,Minnny or Utah)

Atl:
C:Porzingis
Pf:Giannis
SF:J Johnson
SG:Alexander-Walker
PG:D Daniels

Bucks
C:Turner:Portis
PF:Kuzma/Prince
SF:Risacher/Trent
SG:Rollins/K Porter Jr
PG:T Young/ C Anthony

08 Dec 2025 21:33:19
More picks.

02 Dec 2025 05:52:56
Okc- Kenrich Williams, Dieng, jazz top 8 protected pick 2026, 2026 2nd
Jazz- filipowski, Niang

Okc gets upgrades in their forward depth and get some potential with Filipowski and use the draft pick that likely won't get conveyed to add for their championship run. Jazz get control of their draft pick so they don't have to worry about tanking and get an extra second.

Okc- topic, future 2nd
Grizzlies- cam Spencer

Okc adds guard depth and shooting at a lower cap hit for the next few years and Memphis gets a player with a higher ceiling in a year where they are in limbo and could benefit from looking forward to the future to build around some good young talent.

01 Dec 2025 20:43:30
Jazz kings

Jazz - sabonis

Kings- kessler nurkic anderson niang 1st rd pick 2029 & 31 lotto protected
- waive niang

Kessler is injured, kings can wait for him while tanking. They can extend him next year. Jazz get another allstar caliber big to pair with markkanen and start to build a team that can actually contend

George, Bailey, Williams, Markkanen, Sabonis
Clayton Jr, Mykhailiuk, Sensabaugh, Hendricks, Filipowski

19 Nov 2025 06:35:02
BOS/UTAH/HOU

BOS get Lauri Markkanen & Jsean Tate

UTAH get Fred VanVleet, Sam Hauser, Chris Boucher, 3 1st round picks from BOS, 2 1st round picks from HOU

HOU get Derrick White & Kevin Love

19 Nov 2025 14:56:48
Brutal for Boston, White has as much or more value than Markannen, who some view as not worth his contract.

21 Nov 2025 17:59:19
Markkanen is worth more than White very easily. I can’t imagine thinking Markkanen (averaging 31 and 6 on great shooting) isn’t worth his contract.

Maybe not 3 firsts more than White. But Boston’s firsts are not very valuable.

22 Nov 2025 12:47:18
There are people who think Markannen doesn't have a lot of value at the money he's making and it sounds like you're purely looking at numbers. Putting up numbers for a bad team is nothing special. He needs to help a team win and has yet to do that. He may be considered a better player than White, though I'm not sure, but White is viewed as a much better contract and that makes all the difference in value during this era.

22 Nov 2025 13:10:05
Also, the ESPN top 100 has Markannen at 43 and White at 26. That's not everything but it suggests that White has more value even if their contacts were identical, yet in reality Markannen makes significantly more.

22 Nov 2025 16:34:34
I can argue that if you put Markannen instead of White on that Boston’s roster, they can be way better.

23 Nov 2025 00:58:36
Way better? For when? He's never played more than 66 games in his whole career.

19 Nov 2025 04:55:50
Utah gets: Sochan, Johnson or Vassell. and picks

SA gets Lauri Markanen.
