Why do it?

Wolves: Add Kyrie as a final push toward true contention. Have one of the best starting 5's in the league.

Mavs: Even out talent on the team and allow Cooper Flagg to be the clear #1 option, with Andrew Nembhard as his long-term partner. On paper, they have a high-caliber 10-man rotation if they can stay healthy.

Pacers: Trade Andrew Nembhard as they make way for the return of Haliburton and to clear up a starting spot for their top-3 pick (Peterson/Dybantsa). Add much-needed depth to become an immediate contender next year.
