Why each team does it -

Kings: Get rid of monks contract, they will need to add ellis for doing so, rui is a decent young wing whom they can re sign to a team friendly deal

Bucks: Well , giannis wants out and reaves has kinda reached all star level performance. So time to sell high.

Philly: Grimes probably ain't staying, and this season his production has been meh, so few second rounders should be enough considering he is an expiring.

Cavs: I dont think the cavs can afford to extend wade , so they take a chance on knecht and they need shooting anyways so looks fair enough

Lakers: Obviously they do it , they get good complementary pieces aswell. Lineup- Ellis, grimes,luka,bron,giannis
