Full Trade Details

Boston Receives: Jakob Poeltl(C)and Keita Bates-Diop(F)

Spurs Receives: Payton Pritchard(G)and Danilo Gallinari(F)/2025 Top 3 protected First Round Pick/2023 second round pick.

Pros: Add another elite shot blocking Bigman (Poeltl) with a solid touch around the rim and an underrated passing ability. Adds little veteran depth at the forward position.

Cons: Creates a logjam at the frontcourt with multiple playable bigs. Won't be able to make another trade/transaction for 2-3 years because of the Stepien Rule. Still leaves vulnerability at the forward position if star players Tatum and Brown go down with an injury.
