Indiana

• bring the hometown kid JHS back and re-sign him in the offseason.

• replenish your backcourt with an older, but effective big.

• take a chance on the refreshed Vanderbilt, acquire a young future trade piece.

• finally send Turner out to LA for one of the more Valuable picks in the league.

LA

• solidify your front court.

• sign Markelle Fultz as your backup PG.

• win NOW.

Washngton

• send out JoVal for fair value (two 2nds).

• assuming Brogdon is shipped by the deadline, gives you a filler backup guard +.

• take on another potentially valuable expiring contract for next season.

synopsis: indiana essentially fleeces for a valuable FRP while maintaining their structure into the immediate future. Washington is a net positive with picks. LA does what is needed to win.
