TRADE BREAKDOWN
NETS RECEIVE:
-Rui Hachimura
-Gabe Vincent
-Jalen Hood-Schifino
-2029 top 5 protected first via the Lakers
-2030 pick swap favourable to the Nets
LAKERS RECEIVE:
-Cam Johnson
-Day’Ron Sharpe
NETS REASONING: In this trade the Nets aquire 2 extremely valuable firsts for Cam Johnson and Sharpe, which will fully begin there rebuild, they can also try to flip Rui in the off-Season to a contender. The Nets will also try to save Hood-Schifinos career and turn him into a productive role player which he will not be able to do with the Lakers.
LAKERS REASONING: If the Lakers get the opportunity to make a deal like this I believe they should jump on it straight away. Cam Johnson will help the Lakers contend in the final years of LeBrons career, hopefully raising their playoff cieling. Sharpe would also be a great acquisition for them as a backup big to eat up the Jaxon Hayes and Christian Koloko minutes and take a load off AD.
