The hawks facilitate a Giannis trade to improve at guard and forward. They take some risk on each being a one year rental, but also limit risk of being stuck with a big contract long term. They reinforce at center as a separate trade with the Mavs. They will how the necessary cap space in the offseason to make it a feasible trade financially.

They also resign CJ and Jock.

Could they pull this off without parting with the #8 pick? Would they need to add more picks?
