Big 5 team trade.

Warriors: They sign and trade Kuminga for Mark Williams, and Jusuf Nurkic.

Why: Instead of losing Kuminga for nothing they sign and trade him. Finally get a starting center in Williams and a back up in Nurkic. Nurkic’s contract will expire after the year and they can resign Williams.

Warriors starting line up Curry, Podz, Butler, Green, Williams Core rotation so far Hield, Moody, Jackson, Nurkic

Cavs: They trade Jarrett Allen, Max Strus, Craig Porter, Chuma Okeke and Isaac Okoro for Julius Randle, Jaylen Clark, DaQuan Jeffries and 2 2nd rd picks.

Why: I truly believe that the Cavs can stay put and still be one of the best teams in the east however sports analysts say they need to shake up the team. The big move here is trading Allen. This allows for Mobley to move to Center and brining in Randle at the 4. Randle showed up this year in the play offs as the 2nd option for the wolves helping them get to the western conference finals. I think he would plug in well as the third option for Cavs behind Mitchell and Garland. Okeke, porter, strus and Okoro are being traded to get under the 2nd apron and make cap work. The 2 2nd rd picks is for depth after losing 5 players. One key resigning for them is bringing back Ty Jerome

Cavs starting line up Garland, Mitchell, Hunter, Randle, Mobley Core rotation so far Jerome, Clark, Jeffries, Wade

Hornets: They trade Mark Williams, Jusuf Nurkic, Grant Williams, DaQuan Jeffries, Josh Green, 1 1st rd pick and 2 2nd rd picks for Rudy Gobert, Jonathan Kuminga and Chuma Okeke.

Why: Hornets trade their two centers on a flyer in Kuminga in the hope he can blossom into a star. Now needing a starting center they also trade for Gobert sending players make the contracts meet. The 1st rd pick is in the same year where they babe 3 total so sending 1 won’t hurt. Gobert who has been on multiple top seeded teams, has been to multiple conference finals and is multiple time DPOY. With all the offensive players you don’t need much from Gobert. The hope is with him he can turn the Hornets around. With the 4th overall pick still in the draft they hopefully draft a 2 or a 3 to fill out their starting line up. Key resigning for them is Tre Mann

Hornets starting line up Ball, 4th, Miller, Kuminga, Gobert Core rotation up so far Mann, Smith Jr, Okogie, Bridges, Salaun

Timberwolves: They trade Rudy Gobert, Julius Randle, Jaylen Clark a 1st and 2nd rd pick for Jarrett Allen, Coby White, Max Strus, Grant Williams, and Craig Porter

Why: The Timberwolves are in desperate need for a starting point guard. With this trade they are able to get just that. They are losing their best defensive player in Gobert and their 2nd best offensive player in Randle but the hope is the Allen and company can come in and make up for everything. Losing Clark who showed flashes last year sucks but the hope is Dillingham, and Shannon can take a step up.

Timberwolves starting line up White, Edwards, DiVincenzo, McDaniels, Allen Core rotation so far Dillingham, Shannon, Strus, Williams, Reid

Bulls: They trade Coby White and a 2nd rd pick for Josh Green, Isaac Okoro, 2 1st rd and 2 2nd rd picks.

Why: Losing Coby White is rough but this is a team that is rebuilding and is currently looking to trade its starting center and expiring contracts. Coby white is due for a contract extension and is going to get paid more than his current contract and I’m not sure if the Bulls see him as a long term fit at the point especially with having ball and most likely resigning Giddey. This allows them to take flyers on Green and Okoro while not breaking the bank and gaining a future 1st rd pick, a 1st rd pick, and 2nd rd pick in this years draft while also being able to move up 11 spots in the 2nd rd. This gives them 2 1st rd picks snd 2 early 2nd rd picks in this year’s draft.

Bulls starting line up so far Giddey, Dosunmu, Buzelis, Williams, Vucevic

Current rotation so far Ball, Green, Huerter, Okoro, Collins

I think this is a pretty fair trade all around. Let me know what you think or what can be improved.
