The Kings take advantage of Vucevic’s consistently underrated status, along with Bridges’ undeserved backup status, to pick up a star and another starter, at the cost of Bagley’s potential and a few picks along with some extra salary.
The Hornets pick up an underrated center in Holmes (and two good backup bigs), and an extra scorer in Fournier at the cost of some backups (two valuable) and a pick. They have enough cap space to bring them back if wanted.
The Celtics get Gordon and his rangy defense at the costs of two prospects, a pick, and their TPE.
The Magic, destroyed by injuries and without cap space. lose Vucevic and Gordon, but get to tank for Cunningham, picks, cap space, and a look at young players like Bamba, Bagley, Nesmith, Langford, and Monk.
