Timberwolves/ Give up: Josh Okogie, Jaden McDaniels, Taureen Prince Receive Jerami Grant

Reasoning: Timberwolves only weakness in their rotation is the PF spot. They have tried guys like Juancho Hernangonez, Dario Saric and even tried putting Anthony Edwards there. However with the addition to Grant who is a 20 ppg scorer and good defender this team can actually start to look like a contender. Starting rotation PG DLO, SG Anthony Edwards, SF Malik Beasley PF Jerami Grant, C Kat

Pistons Give up Jerami Grant Recieve Josh Okogie, Jaden McDaniels, Taureen Prince 2023 top 8 protected frp

Reasoning: The Pistons are clearly in a rebuild and trading away their 20 ppg scorer for younger value players and picks Is a must. Since they got rid of Sekou Doumboya their PF spot could use some help and Jaden can fit right into the rotation. Hes 6'10 with the skills of a modern wing and is oosing with potential. Josh Okogie is a defensive menace and is developing some offensive skills as well. Their SG spot is pretty deep but honestly I like Josh Jackson at the forward spot instead because of his inability to shoot. They also get Taureen Prince for salary cap reasons and a frp. Obviously if the timberwolves are still horrendously bad they'll get the pick back. But the opportunity to get a late lottery pick out of grant is promising regardless if it's not 100 percent Certain.

Rotation PG Killian Hayes SG Cade Cunningham SF Saddiq Bey PF Taureen Prince/Jaden McDaniels C Isiah Stewart Backup PG Saben Lee SG Josh Okogie SF Josh Jackson PF Jaden McDaniels/Taureen Prince C Kelly Olynyk
