A four-team trade sees AD leave Dallas, Lavine leave Sacramento, and big changes for the Bulls and Clippers.

• Mavs: They're trading AD and C.Martin for Lavine, D.Jones Jr., D.Terry, 1frp and 2srp. AD's departure now seems imminent, and his market value isn't as high as it once was, but this trade would allow Dallas to increase their draft capital, rejuvenate their roster, and add a high-level player like Lavine.

• Clippers: Trade Zubac, J.Collins, and D.Jones Jr. for AD. The Clippers are in a dire situation, lacking the picks to tank and not strong enough to compete in the West. This move would allow them to form a new Big Three and make a run at the title in recent years.

• Kings: Trade Lavine and K.Ellis for C.White, P.Williams and Z.Collins. This move allows the Kings to enhance the value of their roster by rejuvenating it and increasing their salary flexibility.

• Bulls: Traded C.White, P.Williams, Z.Collins, D.Terry, 1frp and 2srp for Zubac, J.Collins, C.Martin, and K.Ellis. This move allows the Bulls to acquire valuable players for their expiring youth and invest a small portion of their draft capital to strengthen the roster.

• Bulls roster after the trades:

• Guards: Giddey, T.Jones, Ayo, K.Ellis, Huerter and J.Carter.

• Forwards: Buzelis, J.Collins, Okoro, C.Martin, J.Phillips and Essengue.

• Centers: Zubac, Vucevic and J.Smith.
