THE MOST IMPORANT PART OF THIS TRADE: The 2025 unprotected Pick that they got back from the Spurs. This is basically the same thing that the Nets did.

The Benefits for each team is obvious.

The lakers get a true Center that slows AD to move to the 4.

The Heat get that offensive juggernaut of Trae Young that is easily paired along their great Defense.

The spurs get another great veteran Gaurs that can play alongside Wemby, which helps him learn to win games and develop.

The Hawks get a bunch of assets for their old core that they now blow up, and they can make further trades of Terry Rozier and Duncan Robinson to get more picks.
