Pistons are unable to complete this trade. Since they are not an over apron team, and they are sending out between $7,500,000 and $29.0M in salary, they are only able to take back $7.5M more than the salary they are sending out.

Pistons can only take back $15.1M in salary based on the amount they are sending out.

Cut $432K from the Pistons incoming trade value to make this trade successful for the Pistons.

Must Waive Players

Phoenix would have 21 standard contract players after the trade and would need to waive 6 players.

Financial

Suns are unable to complete this trade. Incoming player salary ($19.4M) is matched using multiple outgoing players. Since they are an over second apron team, they are not able to aggregate players in a trade. This means for example, that they cannot send out two players to acquire one with a similar salary to both.
