I think the Hawks got solid value out of the DJ trade. I am excited to see how Daniels will do with more minutes. Nance Jr. can play backup C if they are able to trade Capela and keep Okongwu, or play backup PF without trading Capela. Liddell probably won't get any minutes, but the two FRPs are nice.


The Nets obviously need to continue their rebuild, and trading DFS should be part of that. In return they get Niang and Levert, both of whom can be flipped for draft compensation. They also get a future FRP and some SRPs.


The Magic decide to get a primary ball handler who would fit well next to Suggs. This establishes a young "Big 4", if you will. The future of Garland, Suggs, Franz, and Banchero is very bright. They obviously would extend Franz and Suggs following this, among other extensions and resignings (which I could see them not doing in favor of different free agents). The cap space issues wouldn't actually happen till next season.

Magic Rotation:

PG: Garland - Black

SG: Suggs - Ingles/Howard

SF: Franz - Isaac

PF: Banchero - Da Silva

C: Mo - Bitadze


The Cavs should let Mobley move into the center position, and moving on from Allen for another star is the best possibility. They also move Garland, Levert, and Niang to provide more depth overall. They also have some open cap space to work with, and could look to fill out their depth even more or make another trade.

Cavs Rotation:

PG: Don - Anthony

SG: Okoro - Harris

SF: Ingram - Strus

PF: DFS - Wade

C: Mobley - WCJ


The Pels definitely have a couple moves left to make, such as trading Ingram and/or McCollum. I think that they should do both, unless if CJ is willing to take on the sixth man role. Either way, getting DJ without giving up any of their core players was significant. They are able to make more moves in free agency because of this as well.

Pels Rotation (without trading CJ):

PG: DJ - Alvarado/Reeves

SG: Herb - CJ

SF: Murphy - Marshall

PF: Zion - Smith

C: Allen - Missi
