LAKERS they become more atletic and defensive, adding Claxton will be huge as a center for the future, he is the perfect long term fit with Luka in the center position (rim-protection, atleticism, rebounding, lob-threat) and Kuminga has a team option next year, so Lakers will still maintain his cap flexibility if he dont work. Also adding Highsmith & Keon Ellis will improve the perimetal defense and shooting.
* PG LUKA | SMART
* SG REAVES | ELLIS
* SF LEBRON | HIGHSMITH
* PF KUMINGA | LARAVIA
* CT CLAXTON | AYTON
WARRIORS they finally trade Kuminga and they add MPJ, 6'10 3-level-scorer, rebounder and decent defender who will give them another player who can help Curry & Butler in the offensive site and Green in the rebounding site. (Maybe they should add the 2026 frp)
* PG CURRY | MELTON
* SG PODZ | PAYTON
* SF BUTLER | RICHARD
* PF MPJ | POST
* CT GREEN | HORFORD
(another variation could be Curry - Butler - MPJ - Green - Post)
