This is a sign-and-trade with multiple parts. Even though it says it doesn’t work for Toronto, there’s a 2.1 million dollar contract on the books for a retired player (Nance de Colo), so it does.
Nurkic seems to get better every year, and he’d fit around the same as Vucevic but as a better bucket-getter. Caruso-Harden-DeRozan-PF in the Draft/Trade for Jeremi Grant-Nurkic is really good, and with that expected upgrade at PF, they will be a premier championship contender.
And Sixers fans, the backcourt is not too loaded. Lonzo and Maxey would start alongside each other, so Maxey-Lonzo-Harris (at the 3)-Williams-Embiid (White 6th man) would work.
Toronto finally gets a solid center that can get easy looks from VanVleet and work in the pick and roll with him. I mean, Vucevic and VanVleet sounds great on paper, and along with the passing skills of OG and Barnes, Nikola should succeed more like his Orlando days.

The Blazers get ANOTHER pick this year for if they want to trade up or regain depth, and Achiuwa fits their timeline well and is a Rising Star. They also get some solid depth pieces to replace some lower-bench guys leaving in free agency (Ex: Dennis Smith Jr.).
