Idea for this trade.

The OKC want to get a bigger wing that can rebound and shoot also they can maybe get a big man like Kel'el Ware, Zach Edey, Daron Holmes, Tyler Smith, Yves Missi or maybe someone else at the 18th pick.

The Magic need a good playmaker that can shoot, so they are getting Tyus Jones(sign and trade), they also move up in the draft, so they can get someone who can help them that would not be there at 18(maybe Devin Carter idk), and all they give up is Wendell Carter Jr. whom they don't seem to want to keep. + They get JWill who is not as good as WCJ, but he can space the floor like him.

The Wizards do give up Deni and Tyus, but they get two young players, in Josh Giddey and Ousmane Dieng so hopefully they turn into something good. Wizards also get two first round picks, a swap and some second round picks. They also get a better center with Wendell Carter Jr.

My thoughts on the trade: Overall, I think all the teams address some of their needs/weaknesses, however there could possibly be other players out there that these teams would rather trade for, for some reason or another.

OKC Thunder. Some people think OKC should get a big bruiser of some sort, and whilst I am not opposed to it, I think the bigger need, is getting a big 4 that doesn't ruin the floor spacing and can play alongside Chet. I believe that Deni Avdija fits that perfectly. Are They giving up to much or not enough? I don't know. I've heard some people say 2 first rounders and others 4-5 so I've gone for something closer to the middle.

Wizards. Personally I would keep Deni, but maybe this offer is good enough because you do not want to be good next season, but you still get some young pieces to possibly build around. As for why they are giving up Tyus and getting WCJ, I think Tyus should be on a team trying to compete so rather than losing him in free agency they do a sign and trade and get Wendell Carter Jr. because they simply cannot have Marvin Bagley or Richaun Holmes as their starting centre. (If Alexander Sarr falls to them then they obviously shouldn't do the deal)

Magic. They really need a smart playmaker to control the game and i think Tyus is one of the best at keeping the offence flowing and creating open looks for his teammates without turning the ball over. So yeah, getting a good starter for someone who didn't play a lot in the playoffs, i think that is a good deal + they also move up in the draft.

Tyus Jones contract: I really don't know how much he is looking to get, so I just gave him a three year, ascending contract, starting at 15 mil. Because that is about the same as his pervious contract.

TLDR: Thunder get big wing, Magic get playmaker, Wizards go deeper into the rebuild and get young players and draft capital.
