Reasoning

Lakers - This trade brings in a great defensive wing who can be LA best POA defender. He’s improved from 3 and has been shooting around 35% from 3 past few seasons which is respectable. Playing with Luka, bron and reaves he could get that % up as he would be wide open a lot! Or the LA pressure would get to him either way, This is a low risk trade as thybule is expiring and he isn’t expensive to trade for.

Trailblazers - This move frees up cap space as they aren’t taking back any players and they also get a pick swap, what’s not to like especially that thybule doesn’t have much of a role on the team since toumani is the new 3&D wing for them.

So they free up 11 mil and get a pick for someone who doesn’t play, seems pretty good imo.

Nets - Take on an expiring deal and get two 2nd rounders. Good deal for the nets as this free agency isn’t great so there is no need to sign anyone. kleber being an expiring doesn’t affect them for 2026 free agency and they get picks for free.
